Adapt Learning Community: LRS not available

console-export-2020-1-13_15-31-47.txt

Hi,

when I try to connect to my local learning locker LRS, I get a "LRS not available" message.

My setup:

Learning Locker v5.3.0 (dockerized local install; tested with postman)

Adapt Framework v5.1.0 (local standard installation with unchanged example course; launched with 'grunt server')

adapt-contrib-xapi v0.8.0

course.json:

"_xapi": {
       "_isEnabled": true,
       "_specification": "xAPI",
       "_activityID": "https://my-url.com/my-adapt-course",
       "_endpoint": "https://172.20.0.8/data/xAPI", <= do I have to add a trailing slash and/or /statement as in postman??
       "_user": "4aa1ee......",
       "_password": "cf412c5a.....",
       "_lang": "en-US",
       "_generateIds": false,
       "_shouldTrackState": false,
       "_coreEvents": {
           "Adapt": {
               "router:menu": true,
               "router:page": true,
               "questionView:recordInteraction": true,
               "assessments:complete": true
           },
           "contentObjects": {
               "change:_isComplete": true
           },
           "articles": {
               "change:_isComplete": true
           },
           "blocks": {
               "change:_isComplete": true
           },
           "components": {
               "change:_isComplete": true
           }
       },
       "_lrsFailureBehaviour": "show"
   }

Firefox devtools gives me a WARN: adapt-contrib-xapi: "actor" attribute not found! followed by an error message (have a look at the attachement for the complete logfile).

Seemingly the default user from course.json/_globals/_learnerInfo is not used by the xapi extension? How can I add an actor?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Tom,

you need to implement an xAPI launch mechanism, or embedding the user credentials in the URL:
http://localhost:9001?actor={"objectType":"Agent","mbox":"mailto:test@user.com","name":"Test User"}

Ignacio,

many thanks for reply! Your hint got me on the right track. The complete URL (Learning Locker in my case) should be:

http://localhost:9001/?endpoint=https://my-lrs.com/data/xAPI&auth=Basic NGFhMWV.....&actor={"objectType":"Agent","mbox":"mailto:test@user.com","name":"Test User"}

The values for endpoint and auth are provided by the LRS.
