The Gradeable Autograding Configuration Text Editor allows instructors to quickly view and make minor adjustments to a gradeable’s autograding configuration directly on the site. It can be found below the autograding upload section on the Submissions / Autograding
page within a gradeable’s settings.
Features
Adding Directories & Files
You can add new directories to the root level, and add individual files either to the root level or within existing folders. If you need to add a folder that already contains files, consider re-uploading the configuration instead.
Removing Directories & Files
You can delete individual files or entire directories from the configuration as needed. Note: Deleting a directory will also remove all of its contents! By design, you cannot delete the entire configuration or the config.json
file.
Downloading Configuration
Download a ZIP file of your current configuration by clicking the download icon next to the folder. This download button is also next to the configuration on the autograding upload page.
Customizing the Editor
The text editor uses CodeMirror to enhance the editing experience. Use the buttons in the top-right corner of the text editor to:
- Toggle line number visibility.
- Switch the tab size between 2 and 4 spaces.
Note: This feature is only available for uploaded configurations. It does not yet support configurations pulled from the private courses repository.
