By default, the Open Response Assessment (ORA2) application stores files that learners upload in an Amazon S3 bucket.
With the Cypress release, you can configure ORA2 to store files in an alternate system. To have learners’ files stored in a system other than Amazon S3, you must complete the following steps.
In the ORA-2 repository, implement the BaseBackend class defined in the
base.py file.
For example, the S3.py file in the same directory is an implementation of
BaseBackend for Amazon S3. You must implement the equivalent class for
the storage system you intend to use.
Configure ORA2 to use your alternative storage system by modifying the value
of backend_setting in init file
to point to your implementation of BaseBackend.
Add code to instantiate the new implementation to the get_backend() in
the init.py file.
Configure ORA2 to use the alternative storage system by modifying the value
of ORA2_FILEUPLOAD_BACKEND in the Django settings to point to your
implementation of BaseBackend.
