# Quizzing With Confidence

Quizcon provides an alternative question type to faculty who use multiple choice questions as part of their assessments. The platform uses confidence-weighted multiple choice questions to give students an opportunity to not only receive partial credit in a multiple choice question, but to also more directly show their level of understanding of a specific concept.

## Configuration

1. Clone

    git clone https://github.com/ccnmtl/quizcon.git

    cd quizcon

2. Create the database

   For Postgres:

     * Create a database user/password (if needed)

     * Create the database `createdb quizcon`

3. Customize settings

    * Create a local_settings.py file in the `quizcon` subdirectory OR

    * Copy `quizcon/settings_shared.py` to `quizcon/local_settings.py`

    * Then, override the variables from `settings_shared.py` that you need to customize for your local installation.

      * Customize your `DATABASES` dictionary

        * e.g. set NAME, HOST, USER, and PASSWORD. remove PORT (unless it's non-standard)

      * Specify ALLOWED_HOSTS = [ 'localhost', '.your.blackboard.or.moodle.domain', '.your.workstation.domain', ]

    * The ``PYLTI_CONFIG`` variable in your ``local_settings.py`` configures the application consumers and secrets. Generate two long random numbers for these values.

       ```

       PYLTI_CONFIG = {

           'consumers': {

               '': {

                   'secret': ''

               }

           }

       }

       ```

4. Build the virtual environment

   `make` will build the virtualenv

5. Migrate the database

   `./manage.py migrate`

6. Run

    `make runserver`
