Name to Structure or Reaction (MarvinJS)
Overview
This software is no longer maintained and has been superseded by the OpenOChem LTI assessment system.
With this question type you can query students to reproduce a single molecule, set of molecules or reactions. This question type is similar to Structure match with editor and the Pattern match with JME editor but offers some more advanced features (see features below). This plugin requires MarvinJS from Chemaxon.
- Please draw the structure of water showing all lone pairs?
- Draw acetic acid and its dissociation in water?
- Draw all stereoisomers for the following molecule?
- Draw (R)-3-methyl-pentan-2-ol?
License
This plugin adopts the same license that Moodle does. The MarvinJS is available from Chemaxon.
Authors
This plugin was developed by Carl LeBlond at the Indiana University of Pennsylvania (IUP). Neither IUP or Carl LeBlond are affiliated with Chemaxon.
Requirements
This plugin requires MarvinJS from Chemaxon which can be downloaded here. Download the full package and install it at your web servers root directory.
This plugin also requires openbabel. On Ubuntu you can install with "sudo apt-get install openbabel".
Examples
Example are included in Moodle xml format in the examples folder.
Some CSS styles in your plugin do not have specific selectors (like .resizable) and may eventually affect other parts of Moodle as all CSS files from all components are concatenated. Please fix it to make sure the selector applies to the scope of your plugin only.
Please note that the command argument passed to functions like proc_open() should be sanitized by something like escapeshellarg() in order to prevent eventual (security related) issues or problems caused by misconfiguration of the plugin.
With the hope this would be fixed soon, you are cleared to land now. Welcome to the plugins directory.
I had an instance where I did not install OpenBabel and one where I installed it and I could not determine any differences.
Could you please explain the need for it?
