Autograder Generator Site (version 2!)

A website that helps instructors use autograding tools for their courses.

Thanks

This work is supported by The Learning Design & Technology team at the University of Virginia.

Getting Started

$ git clone https://github.com/tbrown122387/autograder_site.git

Development with Docker

Prerequisites

1. Install Docker on your system. The getting started guide is located here.
2. Verify Docker is installed with docker --version

Guide

This may not work on Windows, let us know if you encounter any issues

For first time setup or if there are changes to requirements.txt or package.json:

$ docker compose up --build

For any other time:

$ docker compose up

Note that you may need docker-compose instead of docker compose.

Then, navigate to localhost:8080 to see the website. When making changes to either the client or the API, hot-reloading is enabled, so the page will update whenever a change is saved.

If you want to fully close the website and delete associated data:

$ docker compose down

Details

docker-compose.yml defines all the services needed. Currently, there is a client that is the frontend, a server that is the backend, a PostgreSQL database, and PGAdmin for monitoring the development database. The Dockerfile in the client and server folder shows how the container is built for each service.
