This files describes API changes in /course/*,
information provided here is intended especially for developers.
=== 4.1 ===
* The function course_modchooser() has been finally deprecated and can not be used anymore. Please use
course_activitychooser() instead.
* A critical accessibility issue is been found (MDL-74800) at the output class
core_courseformat\output\local\content\cm\cmname. To solve the problem this output element is not
rendered anymore using inplace_editable but using a regular named_templatable interface.
Some format plugins that override the deprecated renderer method course_section_cm_name can be affected.
Check the current course_section_cm_name code to see how to render it properly.
=== 4.0 ===
* All activity icons have been replaced with black monochrome icons. The background
colour for these icons is defined using a new 'FEATURE_MOD_PURPOSE' support variable in the module lib.php file
Available purpose types are:
- MOD_PURPOSE_COMMUNICATION
- MOD_PURPOSE_ASSESSMENT
- MOD_PURPOSE_COLLABORATION
- MOD_PURPOSE_CONTENT
- MOD_PURPOSE_ADMINISTRATION
- MOD_PURPOSE_INTERFACE
- MOD_PURPOSE_OTHER
The colours for these types are defined in theme/boost/scss/moodle/variables.scss
* The format_base is now deprecated. Use core_courseformat\base instead.
* The new course output components deprecate many renderer methods from course
renderer and course format renderer:
- core_courseformat\output\local\content: to render the general course structure
- core_courseformat\output\local\content\section: to render a section
- core_courseformat\output\local\content\cm: to render an activity card inside a section
- core_courseformat\output\local\content\cm\*: to render parts of the course structure
- core_courseformat\output\local\content\section\*: to render parts of the course section
* The previous format renderer page_title method has been moved to course_format::page_title
* New format renderer methods to interact with the new output components:
- render: override the default templatable mustache location for the new course components.
- course_section_updated_cm_item: used when the course editor needs to update a cm item HTML.
- render_content: contrib formats should override this method to change the default template.
* The following methods are adapted to use outputs but with a deprecation warning and should not be used anymore:
- print_single_section_page (replaced by core_courseformat\output\local\content)
- print_multiple_section_page (replaced by core_courseformat\output\local\content)
- course_activity_clipboard (integrated in replaced by core_courseformat\output\local\content)

- section_availability_message (integrated in core_courseformat\output\local\content\section\availability)
- section_availability (replaced by core_courseformat\output\local\content\section\availability)
- get_nav_links (replaced by core_courseformat\output\local\content\sectionnavigation)

- page_title (moved to core_courseformat\output\local\content)
* Course formats should have a renderer (until now it was only highly recommended but not mandatory). For backwards
compatibility (to not break third-party plugins without it), legacy_format_renderer has been created and will be used when
course formats don't have their own renderer.
* New external core_courseformat\external\get_state returns current state information for a given course.
* New external core_courseformat\external\update_course runs given action to edit course and gets the affectated state objects.
* New external core_course\external\get_state returns current state information for a given course.

* New course_get_enrolled_courses_for_logged_in_user_from_search which hooks in with external\get_enrolled_courses_by_timeline_classification
given COURSE_TIMELINE_SEARCH is set then get_enrolled_courses_by_timeline_classification will deviate to use a string search of enrolled courses.
* Class core_course\output\course_module_name is deprecated. Now core_courseformat\output\local\content\cm\cmname controls inline edit.
* Calendar menu entry is now moved to User menu items, so the following methods will not return the calendar item anymore:

- core_course_externalcore_course_external::get_user_navigation_options
* New external \core_course\external\get_enrolled_courses_with_action_events_by_timeline_classification:
- Returns courses the user is enrolled in which contain at least one action event in the supplied time/text filtering parameters.
- Provides a similar response to get_enrolled_courses_by_timeline_classification, but omits courses which have no matching
action events.
* The following functions have been deprecated in favour the tertiary navigation constructs:
- management_heading
- course_search_form
- print_course_request_buttons
* New page_setup() method in the core_course_category class. This method can be used for a general page setup in the course
category pages.
* New core_course_category::get_nearest_editable_subcategory():
- Return the core_course_category object for the first subcategory that the current user has the permission on it.
* The method navigation() in the core_course_bulk_activity_completion_renderer class has been deprecated as the tabs navigation
structure in the course competency pages has been replaced with tertiary navigation. To render the navigation, please
render_course_completion_action_bar() instead.
* The following functions have been deprecated in favour partial course cache rebuild:
- course_purge_section_cache (replaced by course_modinfo::purge_course_section_cache_by_id() and course_modinfo::purge_course_section_cache_by_number())
- course_purge_module_cache (replaced by course_modinfo::purge_course_module_cache())
- get_array_of_activities (replaced by course_modinfo::get_array_of_activities() for better performance)
* New course_modinfo::purge_course_cache function was created to purge the cache of a given course.
=== 3.11 ===
* A new callback xxx_coursemodule_definition_after_data that allows plugins to extend activity forms after the data is set.
* \core_course_renderer::course_section_cm_completion() has been deprecated. It is not being used anymore and is being replaced by
\core_renderer::activity_information().
* New Behat steps for checking activity date information in the \behat_course class:
- activity_date_in_activity_should_contain_text()
- Given the activity date in "<ActivityName>" should contain "<Text>"
- activity_dates_information_in_activity_should_exist()
- Given the activity date information in "<ActivityName>" should exist
- activity_dates_information_in_activity_should_not_exist()

for each custom course field, which contains the original/unformatted version of the custom field value.
=== 3.9 ===
* The function get_module_metadata is now deprecated. Please use \core_course\local\service\content_item_service instead.

'allincludinghidden' which delivers all courses including hidden courses. The classification 'all' still returns all courses
without hidden courses.
=== 3.7 ===
* The course pattern function in course_summary_exporter::get_course_pattern has been moved to $OUTPUT->get_generated_image_for_id.

is still required. Deprecated methods:
- core_course_renderer::course_modchooser_module_types

* You can now specify a course end date when calling core_course_external::create_courses and core_course_external::update_courses
external functions. core_course_external::get_courses external function is now returning courses end date values.
