Utilities for offline Canvas and Web-CAT grading. All scripts will show usage information when executed with no arguments. Running with the -h flag will show more detailed help information.

generate_form.py

This script generates a skeleton XML grade submission form from a Canvas .csv grade file.

The generated forms will contain a grade element for each student. The numeric score should be set in the score attribute. Any grading comments should be placed between the open and close grade tags.

	<grade name="STUDENT NAME" eid="student_eid" canvas_id="9999999"
	   score="27">

	  Any text here will show up as a grading comment in
	  Canvas. Newlines will be retained, but most other formatting
	  will be lost :(
	  
	  Nice work STUDENT NAME!
	  
	  TOTAL: 27/32

	</grade>

submit_form.py

Script for uploading XML grading forms containing numeric grade information and comments.
