quizpy 0.0.4

A package to create Moodle exams using Python

quizpy

This package allows you to create a Moodle Quiz in Python code, which then can be imported via the XML import. Stop fumbling around with the horrible moodle web interface! Start coding and use version control!

So far many of the existing question types are supported:

• Multiple Choice
• Multiple True-False
• Numerical
• ShortAnswer
• Matching
• Drag & Drop on Images
• Cloze
• Essay
• Descriptions

Installation

Quizpy is available on PyPi and can be installed via pip:

pip install quizpy

Usage

A moodle quiz (more specifically a question catalogue) consists of multiple categories that need to be filled with questions. Each Question has at least a title, a question text and some default points (which can be scaled in the actual quiz on moodle). Further customizations depend on the question type.

A minimal 2-question example might look like this:

from quizpy import Quiz, Category, MultipleChoice, Essay, Choice

mc = MultipleChoice("Question Title", 'Is this a question?', 1.0)
mc.add_choice('Yes', 100.00, 'Correct, horse!')
mc.add_choice('No', -100.00, 'Na-ahh')
mc.add_choice('Maybe?', 0.0, 'Na-ahh')

blabber = Essay("Psychology Question", "How does coding an exam make you feel?", 1.0, 
                response_template="Great!")

example_quiz = Quiz()

example_questions = example_quiz.add_category("Example questions")
example_questions.questions.extend([mc, blabber])


example_quiz.export('example_quiz.xml')
