By default, the Open Response Assessment (ORA2) application stores files that learners upload in an Amazon S3 bucket.
You can configure ORA2 to store files in an alternate system. To have learners’ files stored in a system other than Amazon S3, follow these 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()
function 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
.
