ZINC (ZINC Is Not Codingbat) is a software bundle that is designed to customize and create Java coding questions that can be accessed through a browser and interactively checked.
Basically people who want to create their own "Codingbat practices".
- Online Java question answering
- GUI-based question creating
- Auto checking answer
- Running Java in browser
- Saving user response to local
The software is divided into 2 parts. The first part is the Creator, which is a software with PyQt5 based GUI to allow users to create their question files. To run it, type in your console:
python /path/to/gui.py
After creating the question file, the question files need to be loaded into the server and configure the path in Webapp, which is a Flask based software, to allow it to be hosted online. Place your question files into the root directory of your questions folder. Go ahead and modify the path variable in the webapp.py to point to your path to question folder, and change the apiID variable and apiSecret variable in runner.py to your id and secret of JDoodle API.
When you are done with everything, run in your counsole:python /path/to/webapp.py For production environment please use WSGI software, like gunicorn, and web server instead of running directly.
Finally, the end users will be accessing it through their browser.
