tutor-livedeps 20.0.0

livedeps plugin for Tutor

This is a plugin for Tutor that provides real time python package installation for Open edX platforms. This means you do not need to rebuild the openedx image whenever you add a new package. This is achieved by storing these packages in Django storage and downloading them inside each LMS/CMS container.

Installation

This plugin depends on the tutor-minio plugin to store the packages. After installing and enabling tutor-minio run the following commands:

tutor plugins install livedeps

tutor plugins enable livedeps

Then build the openedx image:

tutor images build openedx

Finally, run the init task:

tutor local/k8s do init --limit=livedeps

This step must be performed before you start tutor otherwise your LMS/CMS containers will fail to start.

Configuration

LIVEDEPS (default: "[]")

To add a new package to this config run

tutor config save --append LIVEDEPS=package_name

To remove an old package from this config run

tutor config save --remove LIVEDEPS=package_name

Then run the following command to install the packages that are present in the LIVEDEPS config (make sure tutor is already running before executing this command):

tutor local/k8s do livedeps
