Upload enrolment methods

Upload enrolment methods from a CSV file into a range of courses

Description

The Upload course enrolment methods plugin for Moodle allows you to add enrolment methods to a range of courses at the same time. The Course meta link and Cohort sync methods are supported. You can also delete, enable or disable existing enrolment methods in a course. The plugin is strongly based on the Upload Metacourse links (block_metalink) plugin developed by Mark Johnson, and uses code from it.

Usage & Settings

Use the command Administration > Site administration > Plugins > Enrolments > Upload enrolment methods to upload a CSV file containing lines of the form:

operation, enrolment method, target course shortname, meta course shortname or cohort idnumber, disabled status, group name[,role]

The format of the CSV file is as follows:

• Lines beginning with a # or ; character are comments, and skipped.
• Each line of the file contains one record.
• Each record is a series of data in a fixed order separated by commas.
• The fields are: operation, enrolment method, target course shortname, parent course shortname or cohort idnumber, disabled status, group name[, role].
• All fields are required except role, which can be omitted for backwards compatibility.
• The operations are add, del(ete) and upd(ate).
• The supported enrolment methods are meta and cohort.
• The disabled status values are 1 (disabled) or 0 (enabled).
• Students enrolled via the method will be placed in the group specified in the group name field. The group will be created if it doesn't already exist.
• The role field must be a valid role name such as editingteacher, student, etc.
