Quick Start Guide

Create your MkDocs project

If you don't already have a MkDocs project, create one:

mkdocs new my-project
cd my-project

Your project directory should look like this:

my-project/
├── docs/
│   ├── javascripts/
│   │   └── extra.js
│   ├── stylesheets/
│   │   └── extra.css
│   └── static/
│       └── audios/
│       └── images/
│       └── videos/
├── mkdocs.yml
└── quizzes.json

Update mkdocs.yml

Configure your mkdocs.yml to include the plugin and reference necessary CSS and JavaScript files:

site_name: My Docs

plugins:
  - search
  - mkdocs_quiz:
      quiz_file: quizzes.json
      language: en
      show_refresh_button: true
      show_indice_on_answer: true
      show_score: true
      show_progress_bar: true
      logging: true

extra_css:
  - stylesheets/extra.css
  - https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/tailwindcss@2.2.19/dist/tailwind.min.css

  - javascripts/extra.js

Create your json quiz file

Create a quizzes.json file in the root of your project directory. This file will contain your quiz data and configuration options. Here's an example structure:

    // Add more quizzes as needed
  }
}

Ensure that fields like indice are included if show_indice_on_answer is set to true in your configuration, same for the other options 🤓

Integrate your quizzes in your markdown files

Include quizzes in your documentation by referencing them in your Markdown files using the <!-- QUIZ_ID: quiz_name --> syntax.

Example docs/index.md:

# Geography Quiz

Test your knowledge about world capitals.

<!-- QUIZ_ID: quiz1 -->

# Space Quiz

Challenge yourself with questions about space.

<!-- QUIZ_ID: quiz2 -->

Run the Documentation Site

Start the MkDocs development server to test your site with quizzes:

mkdocs serve

Open your browser and navigate to http://localhost:8000 to see your quizzes in action.

Testing

This test suite ensures the correctness and robustness of the mkdoc-qcm plugin, covering multiple aspects such as HTML generation, quiz logic, UI components, and configuration options.

Tools used

• unittest: For writing unit tests.
• BeautifulSoup: For parsing and asserting HTML content.
• mock: For simulating quiz data.

Test structure

The test suite is organized into four main files:

1. test_html_generation.py: Tests for generating quiz HTML
2. test_logic.py: Tests for quiz logic and functionality
3. test_ui_components.py: Tests for optional UI elements
4. test_mock.py: End-to-end testing with mock data integration

Running test with tox

To run the tests, use the tox command:
