#+TITLE: Techela in a flask

Techela in a flask is an application for using Jupyter notebooks in a course.

There is one command, techela, which launches the flask app for the course and opens it in a browser. This app lists all course lectures, and assignments, and provides the functionality required to download and submit assignments. 

Students complete assignments as IPython notebooks. The app submits the  assignments by email using an authenticated server. The assignments are automatically uploaded to a folder on Box.com. Instructors and TAs then the assignments, add feedback and grades to them, and finally return them to the students by email.

This package is currently only usable at CMU without significant modification.

* Installation

** Python

You need Python 3, I recommend Anaconda.

Then, open IPython, and run this command.

#+BEGIN_SRC python :results output org drawer

!pip install techela

#+END_SRC

** TODO Instructors

* TODO Using techela

** First time course setup for instructors

*** Box setup

1. Create a Box folder you plan to use for the course. Invite the TAs as collaborators.

2. Create a folder called submissions in this folder, and enable uploads by email. Make a note of the email address.

** For students

1. Open Ipython.

2. import techela

2. Type techela. This will setup a course for you. 

#+BEGIN_SRC ipython :session :results output drawer

from datetime import datetime

today = datetime.utcnow()

dd = '2017-01-31 23:59:59'

if "<" in dd:

    d = datetime.strptime(dd, "<%Y-%m-%d %a>")

else:

    d = datetime.strptime(dd, "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S")

if (today - d).days >= 0:

    POSTDUE = True

else:

    POSTDUE = False

print(POSTDUE)
