Grader Sheets

Automatically generate grader sheets. Supports conflicts of interest and different assignment counts for different graders.

Designed for use with the Canvas LMS. Canvas can download all submissions with a predictable pattern: lastfirst_submitted-filename.ext.

Quickstart

• Create config.json
  • "file_type" - file type of submissions (recommended: .tar.gz)
  • "grade" - how many assignments should this program attempt to assign by default (I don't know if this works)

{
  "file_type" : ".tar.gz",
  "grade" : 4
}

• Create graders.json
  • "grade" - how many assignments should this program attempt to assign (default in config.json)
  • "conflicts" - list of [lastfirst] that the grader cannot grade

{
 "graders": [
   {
     "first": "john",
     "last": "doe",
     "email": "john.doe@my.school.edu",
     "grade": 4,
     "conflicts": [smithjane]
   }
 ]
}

• Run the executable
  • -c specifies the location of config.json
  • -g specifies the location of graders.json
  • -s specifies the location of submissions.zip
• Run ./print.sh to view the results

Scripts

• If you need to modify submission filenames or whatever before the sheet gets created, put the script in scripts/. These scripts will be run after the .zip is extracted but before the sheet gets created.
  • Since the name of the directory of submissions is based on the system's time, it will be passed as the first argument to the script

Todo

• Support "placeholders"
• Make the code less unreadable
