FAQ
Example:
In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
- Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
- To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
- Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
- If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
- Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.
Informations about the package lti
This set of PHP classes encapsulates the code required by an LTI compliant tool provider to communicate with an LTI tool consumer. It includes support for LTI 1.1 and the unofficial extensions to Basic LTI, as well as the registration process and services of LTI 1.2/2.0. These classes are designed as an update to the LTI Tool Provider class library (http://www.spvsoftwareproducts.com/php/lti_tool_provider/) and a replacement for the library at https://github.com/IMSGlobal/LTI-Tool-Provider-Library-PHP which is no longer supported.
Whilst supporting LTI is relatively simple, the benefits to using a class library like this one are:
- the abstraction layer provided by the classes keeps the LTI communications separate from the application code;
- the code can be re-used between multiple tool providers;
- LTI data is transformed into useful objects and missing data automatically replaced with sensible defaults;
- the outcomes service function uses LTI 1.1 or the unofficial outcomes extension according to whichever is supported by the tool consumer;
- the unofficial extensions for memberships and setting services are supported;
- additional functionality is included to:
- enable/disable a consumer key;
- set start and end times for enabling access for each consumer key;
- set up arrangements such that users from different resource links can all collaborate together within a single tool provider link;
- LTI applications can take advantage of LTI updates with minimal impact on their code.
The GitHub repository provides access to the source files and documentation. The example Rating LTI application is based on this library to further illustrate how it can be used.
