1. Content

This plugin lets users to manage the remote labs that can be later accessed using the Java or Javascript applications created with Easy Java/Javascript Simulations (EjsS) and which are added to a Moodle course by means of the ejsapp module.

The Java applets or the Javascript applications should have been created with version 5.1 (build 20150613 or later) of EjsS to work properly.

This plugin supports (but does not require) the use of ENLARGE for managing the connection to the remote labs. For more information about ENLARGE visit https://www.nebsyst.com and https://irs.nebsyst.com. This plugin will not receive further updates. For more updated versions, contact the authors and/or Nebulous Systems (contact@nebsyst.com).

3. Installation

If you downloaded this plugin from github, you will need to change the folder's name to remlab_manager. If you downloaded it from Moodle.org, then you are fine.

This is a block plugin for Moodle so you should place the remlab_manager folder in your /blocks folder, inside your Moodle installation directory.

When installing remlab manager for the first time, you will need to set a few variables:

myFrontier_IP: This variable defines the IP(s) address(es) of the ENLARGE system(s) used for managing the access to the remote laboratories. If left empty, the plugin understands that ENLARGE is not used.

4. Dependencies

This block needs the ejsapp module to be of any use. It works with version 2.2 (or later) of EJSApp. You can find and download it at https://moodle.org/plugins/view.php?plugin=mod_ejsapp, in the plugins section in the Moodle.org webpage or at https://github.com/UNEDLabs.
