Package Exports

fakelms

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (fakelms) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

fakelms

Enable to quickly test simple SCORM modules by emulating some LMS clientside

features

This will emulate an outrageously basic LMS for testing purpose. It poorly reproduces SCORM 2004 LMS API, emulating only what I needed to quickly test my modules without needing to upload a SCORM module on some plateform.

It will try to behave as much as possible like a real LMS, respecting design oddities. For instance calling Initialize with anything but the empty string as parameter will fail.

Altough it will give less than a complete LMS API it will not give more because the client code should not rely on specific functionnalities that would be exposed here.

It will attach an object responding to LMS API calls to the window.API_1484_11 property.

If you find this piece of software useful and need it to be enhanced then feel free to propose pulls.

supported data model

cmi.exit
cmi.completion_status
cmi.success_status
cmi.session_time (only "PT<n>S" format is supported for now)
cmi.total_time (only "PT<n>S" string will be returned for now)
cmi.interactions._count
cmi.interactions._children (holds ['id','type','learner_response'])
cmi.interactions.<n>.id
cmi.interactions.<n>.type
cmi.interactions.<n>.learner_response

usage

$ npm install --save-dev fakelms

var FakeLMS = require('fakelms');

if ( ! FakeLMS.isAvailable()) {
    console.log("Can't use fake LMS with this browser, sorry");
}

// you may want the following line before calling attachLMSAPIToWindow()
// so that functions returning booleans return them as strings, as some LMS APIs do in real life
FakeLMS.returnBooleanStrings = true;


FakeLMS.attachLMSAPIToWindow();
console.log('Now window.API\_1484\_11 is defined and will respond to LMS calls');
// you then can discover it like real LMS (see http://scorm.com/scorm-explained/technical-scorm/run-time/api-discovery-algorithms/)

FakeLMS.clearData(); // if you need to remove all stored data, a fresh restart

implentation details

LMS data is stored in local storage between sessions. If the browser do not support it then FakeLMS.isAvailable returns false;
