Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ __construct()

completion_info::__construct ( $course)

Constructs with course details.

When instantiating a new completion info object you must provide a course object with at least id, and enablecompletion properties. Property cacherev is needed if you check completion of the current user since it is used for cache validation.

Parameters
stdClass$courseMoodle course object.

Checks whether completion is enabled in a particular course and possibly activity.

Parameters
stdClass | cm_info$cmCourse-module object. If not specified, returns the course completion enable state.

static

Determines whether completion is enabled across entire site.

Parameters
int$useridUser id
Return values
bool

◆ print_help_icon()

completion_info::print_help_icon ( )

Displays the 'Your progress' help icon, if completion tracking is enabled.

Just prints the result of display_help_icon().

Deprecated
since Moodle 2.0 - Use display_help_icon instead.

◆ reset_all_state()

completion_info::reset_all_state ( $cm)

Recalculates completion state related to an activity for all users.

Intended for use if completion conditions change. (This should be avoided as it may cause some things to become incomplete when they were previously complete, with the effect - for example - of hiding a later activity that was previously available.)

Resetting state of manual tickbox has same result as deleting state for it.

Parameters
stcClass | cm_info$cmActivity

◆ set_module_viewed()

completion_info::set_module_viewed ( $cm,
$userid = 0 )

Marks a module as viewed.

Should be called whenever a module is 'viewed' (it is up to the module how to determine that). Has no effect if viewing is not set as a completion condition.

Note that this function must be called before you print the page header because it is possible that the navigation block may depend on it. If you call it after printing the header, it shows a developer debug warning.

Parameters
stdClass | cm_info$cmActivity
int$useridUser ID or 0 (default) for current user
Return values
void

◆ update_state()

completion_info::update_state ( $cm,
$possibleresult = COMPLETION_UNKNOWN,
$userid = 0,
$override = false,
$isbulkupdate = false )

Updates (if necessary) the completion state of activity $cm for the given user.

For manual completion, this function is called when completion is toggled with $possibleresult set to the target state.

For automatic completion, this function should be called every time a module does something which might influence a user's completion state. For example, if a forum provides options for marking itself 'completed' once a user makes N posts, this function should be called every time a user makes a new post. [After the post has been saved to the database]. When calling, you do not need to pass in the new completion state. Instead this function carries out completion calculation by checking grades and viewed state itself, and calling the involved module via mod_{modulename}::completion::::custom_completion\get_overall_completion_state() to check module-specific conditions.

Parameters
stdClass | cm_info$cmCourse-module
int$possibleresultExpected completion result. If the event that has just occurred (e.g. add post) can only result in making the activity complete when it wasn't before, use COMPLETION_COMPLETE. If the event that has just occurred (e.g. delete post) can only result in making the activity not complete when it was previously complete, use COMPLETION_INCOMPLETE. Otherwise use COMPLETION_UNKNOWN. Setting this value to something other than COMPLETION_UNKNOWN significantly improves performance because it will abandon processing early if the user's completion state already matches the expected result. For manual events, COMPLETION_COMPLETE or COMPLETION_INCOMPLETE must be used; these directly set the specified state.
int$useridUser ID to be updated. Default 0 = current user
bool$overrideWhether manually overriding the existing completion state.
bool$isbulkupdateIf bulk grade update is happening.
Return values
void
Exceptions
moodle_exceptionif trying to override without permission.

◆ user_can_override_completion()

completion_info::user_can_override_completion ( $user)

Check whether the supplied user can override the activity completion statuses within the current course.

Parameters
stdClass$userThe user object.
Return values
boolTrue if the user can override, false otherwise.
