Moodle plugins directory: Export Component Grades

Hi Paul. Thanks for sharing this plugin with the community. There is an issue with the SQL function FROM_UNIXTIME() which is MySQL specific. This makes your plugin fail on other DBs that Moodle supports. I believe this is easily fixable in your code so I'm marking this as needing more work for now. Thanks for your patience with the review and approval process.

Hi David, I've just released a new version which uses the userdate() function in PHP rather than FROM_UNIXTIME() in the SQL query. It also includes a fix for another issue (mismatch between the list of students and the component grade data causing it to stop outputting the grades).

Hi Paul. While testing the plugin, I realized the new navigation node it's creating via
report_componentgrades_extend_navigation_module() might be better rooted under Assignment administration > Advanced grading. It
would make it explicit what it refers to. But to be honest I'm not sure if the Advanced grading node is already available there at
the moment when your report's callback is executed. It's worth of trying though.

I was having troubles to use the report with debugging set to DEBUG_DEVELOPER in Moodle 2.7. Instead of the grades in the
spreadsheet, all I got was the warning about add_to_log() being deprecated. Maybe you can find a way to avoid these debug() messages
being part of the spreadsheet? And make sure that grades are always present there?

With regards to string wording, please note that Moodle 'en' language pack does not use Capitalized Letters in titles. So it should
read 'Export rubric grades' instead of 'Export Rubric Grades' to achieve better consistency in the UI.

Let me suggest to improve the code yet and protect it with sesskey() to avoid fetching the data via CSRF. Also, I think there is bit
of inconsistency in what permissions are actually checked. To display the link, you use 'moodle/grade:edit'. But the data generator
checks against 'mod/assign:grade'. Even though eventual mismatch in not likely to happen given the typical roles setup, both these
places should use the same capability.

I am going to approve the plugin now. I believe that many users will find it useful and will provide you with a good feedback for
further improvements. You are cleared to land, welcome to the Plugins directory!

Hi! All my games projects Y9, Y8, iO Games, Frive is already realized with the help of this Export Component Grades. I was having troubles to use the report with debugging set to DEBUG_DEVELOPER in Moodle 2.7. Instead of the grades in the spreadsheet, all I got was the warning about add_to_log() being deprecated. Maybe you can find a way to avoid these debug() messages being part of the spreadsheet? And make sure that grades are always present there?

Great and very important plugin for the essential Rubric-Feedback.
Its works on our installation. But in my export I cant find the "overall Points" nor the "Overall Feedback as comment". Can you add this two colums, please?

Hi Many thanks for this excellent (and much needed) plugin - and just to confirm we recently encountered an issue where export of grades in Assignment activities where a student has multiple attempts leads to data being entered into the spreadsheet in a way that is confusing for teachers.

Hi Paul:

Does it work with Moodle 3.6?

Thank you!

Yes (and 3.7)

Good!

Hi,
Is there a reason that even you (Marcus) assure us that the plugin works with Moodle 3.7, it's not officially updated in the versions tab of the plugin?
Is there a process that need to be finished so such a support could be declared officially? I'm not familiar with the plugin approval process.

If definitely works with 3.7 and I am fairly confident it works with 3.8. I have updated the plugin to reflect this.

IT admin won't install the plugin because the documentation is not updated to include Moodle version 3.8. Is this possible? Thanks, Gerard

Hi Gerard, good on your IT Admin people. I will attempt to get it checked out for 3.8 (and alpha 3.9 while I am at it) in the near future

Is this working in 3.8 for folks? We have 3.8.3 and it's not showing up in the assignment menu.

I have just installed it in a fresh instance of Moodle 3.8.3 and it is appearing where I expect it. That is from the course click on an assignment that uses Rubric or Marking guide, click on the Cog on the right and there is an option that says Export Rubric Grades.
