   77: 
   78: Use lonnavmaps to build a data structure describing the order and 
   79: assessment contents of each sequence in the current course.
   80: 
   81: The returned structure is a hash reference.

   90:   contents     => [........]       # only for container
   91: }
   92: 
   93: $hash->{'contents'} is a reference to an array of hashes of the same structure.
   94: 
   95: Also returned are array references to the sequences and assessments contained
   96: in the course.

  329: =head1 LOCAL DATA CACHING SUBROUTINES
  330: 
  331: The local caching is done using MySQL.  There is no fall-back implementation
  332: if MySQL is not running.
  333: 
  334: The programmers interface is to call &get_current_state() or some other
  335: primary interface subroutine (described below).  The internals of this 
  336: storage system are documented here.
  337: 
  338: There are six tables used to store student performance data (the results of
  339: a dumpcurrent).  Each of these tables is created in MySQL with a name of
  340: $courseid_*****, where ***** is 'symb', 'part', or whatever is appropriate 
  341: for the table.  The tables and their purposes are described below.
  342: 
  343: Some notes before we get started.
  344: 
  345: Each table must have a PRIMARY KEY, which is a column or set of columns which
  346: will serve to uniquely identify a row of data.  NULL is not allowed!
  347: 
  348: INDEXes work best on integer data.
  349: 
  350: JOIN is used to combine data from many tables into one output.
  351: 
  352: lonmysql.pm is used for some of the interface, specifically the table creation
  353: calls.  The inserts are done in bulk by directly calling the database handler.
  354: The SELECT ... JOIN statement used to retrieve the data does not have an
  355: interface in lonmysql.pm and I shudder at the thought of writing one.
  356: 
  357: =head3 Table Descriptions
  358: 
  359: =over 4
  360: 
  361: =item $symb_table
  362: 
  363: The symb_table has two columns.  The first is a 'symb_id' and the second
  364: is the text name for the 'symb' (limited to 64k).  The 'symb_id' is generated
  365: automatically by MySQL so inserts should be done on this table with an
  366: empty first element.  This table has its PRIMARY KEY on the 'symb_id'.
  367: 
  368: =item $part_table
  369: 
  370: The part_table has two columns.  The first is a 'part_id' and the second
  371: is the text name for the 'part' (limited to 100 characters).  The 'part_id' is
  372: generated automatically by MySQL so inserts should be done on this table with
  373: an empty first element.  This table has its PRIMARY KEY on the 'part' (100
  374: characters) and a KEY on 'part_id'.
  375: 
  376: =item $student_table
  377: 
  378: The student_table has two columns.  The first is a 'student_id' and the second
  379: is the text description of the 'student' (typically username:domain) (less
  380: than 100 characters).  The 'student_id' is automatically generated by MySQL.
  381: The use of the name 'student_id' is loaded, I know, but this ID is used ONLY 
  382: internally to the MySQL database and is not the same as the students ID 
  383: (stored in the students environment).  This table has its PRIMARY KEY on the
  384: 'student' (100 characters).
  385: 
  386: =item $updatetime_table
  387: 
  388: The updatetime_table has two columns.  The first is 'student' (100 characters,
  389: typically username:domain).  The second is 'updatetime', which is an unsigned
  390: integer, NOT a MySQL date.  This table has its PRIMARY KEY on 'student' (100
  391: characters).
  392: 
  393: =item $performance_table
  394: 
  395: The performance_table has 9 columns.  The first three are 'symb_id', 
  396: 'student_id', and 'part_id'.  These comprise the PRIMARY KEY for this table
  397: and are directly related to the $symb_table, $student_table, and $part_table
  398: described above.  MySQL does better indexing on numeric items than text,
  399: so we use these three "index tables".  The remaining columns are
  400: 'solved', 'tries', 'awarded', 'award', 'awarddetail', and 'timestamp'.
  401: These are either the MySQL type TINYTEXT or various integers ('tries' and 
  402: 'timestamp').  This table has KEYs of 'student_id' and 'symb_id'.
  403: For use of this table, see the functions described below.
  404: 
  405: =item $parameters_table
  406: 
  407: The parameters_table holds the data that does not fit neatly into the
  408: performance_table.  The parameters table has four columns: 'symb_id',
  409: 'student_id', 'parameter', and 'value'.  'symb_id', 'student_id', and
  410: 'parameter' comprise the PRIMARY KEY for this table.  'parameter' is 
  411: limited to 255 characters.  'value' is limited to 64k characters.

  883: $performance_table and $parameters_table.  $parameters_table holds the data 
  884: that is not included in $performance_table.  See the description of 
  885: $performance_table elsewhere in this file.  The INSERT calls are made
  886: directly by this subroutine, not through lonmysql because we do a 'bulk'
  887: insert which takes advantage of MySQLs non-SQL compliant INSERT command to 
  888: insert multiple rows at a time.  If anything has gone wrong during this
  889: process, $returnstatus is updated with a description of the error and
  890: \%student_data is returned.

  893: is possible for there to be data returned this first time that is not 
  894: available the second time.  CYA.
