This commit adds two new levels to the restore course structure form:
subsection (a delegated section that belongs to a course module) and
subactivity (a course module in a subsection).
Restore form can only use information from the backup file. To allow
activities to know if they are inside a subsection, the backup now
incorporates an "insubsection" attribute. This attribute is used only
for the form display but not for the restore logic.
Backup and restore settings needs to be refactored before introducing
subsections. With the current code adding two new hierachy levels
(subsections and activities in subsections) will require many
unnecessary lines of code because most of the structure is hard-coded.
With this patch when backup/restore present the course structure uses a
stack to control how mani divs are opened, instead of relying on adhoc
class attributes per each div.
About the tasks for sections and activities, the class has been
refactored. This way when subsections are introduced it will require
less lines of code and the final patch will be more comprehensible.
This has been generated running the following Sniff,
part of the Moodle's CodeSniffer standard:
- PSR2.Methods.MethodDeclaration
It just ensures all the function declarations have
the correct order for:
- abstract and final.
- visibility (public, protected, private).
- static.
So, all the lines modified by this commit are function declarations
and the only changes are in the positions of those keywords.
It was using select menus for the convenience of the code, but the
inconvenience of users.
The way this fix is done is a bit hacky, but it works, makes users'
lives much better, but it would be good if someone would dehackify
this in the future.
In 2.0 we had reduced the types of restore operations where we allow
to load the section names and section descriptions, only proceeding
when restoring to new course or to existing course, deleting.
With this patch, we change to the old 1.9 way, that was to restore
the section information always, no matter of the type of restore
operation (course restore, import, to new or to existing course,
deleting or adding). The only exception is that it's always checked that
the target section names and descriptions are empty.
