19 The integration of Competent and iTrivio provides features from both softwares merged together and accessible through the Competent.
20
21 When specific objects are created in Competent, they are automatically created in iTrivio as well. Competent stores the ID references to the iTrivio objects in its database.
22
23 This applies to creation of:
24
25 * Users
26 * Courses (Activities with the specific launch type iTrivio)
27 * User-Course assignments
28 * User-Course attempts
29
30 iTrivio application is accessible only throught specific links in Competent when:
31
32 * editing a content of Course
33 * playing a Course
34 * displaying specific User-Course reports
35
36 The links to iTrivio contain a one time auto-login security token that approves the current user's action in iTrivio. There is no need for the user to log into iTrivio system manually.
37
38 By default the password of a user in iTrivio is different (random) from his password in Competent to prevent direct access to iTrivio. We recommend to disable iTrivio emailing and to keep iTrivio user's password secret to the user.

41 (((
42 **Modifying iTrivio directly (out of Competent platform) can cause synchronization issues, especially when manipulating with Users, Courses, User-Course attempts and assignments.**
43 )))
44
45 The configuration below describes the basic scenario where
46
47 * both iTrivio and Competent are fresh installations
48 * login with the default iTrivio and Competent admin accounts were successfully tested
49 * Competent will be the main platform to handle course creation/deletion, user management and user-course management.
50
51 Contact Educasoft for specific configuration procedure in other, more complex scenarios (e.g. Competent is going to use existing iTrivio application already filled with course/user data).
52
53 = Systems preparation =
54
55 In order for the two systems to work together, we first have to create the basic structures they will operate with - users, folders etc.
56
57 === __Competent__ ===
58
59 If you have both systems as a fresh installations and you will use them only throught the Competent system, you can skip this step and go to the iTrivio preparation.
60
61 1. We need to decide what subtypes we want to use for new Users and new Activites in the use case, when we would need to synchronize users and courses from iTrivio into Competent. This will not typically happen if you will use the systems as described above.
62 1*. If you want new Users and Activities to be of default subtype, you dont need to create anything.
63 1*. If you want new Users and Activities to be of some special subtype
64 1**. Log into Competent as the admin user
65 1**. switch to the Admin view
66 1**. go to the page Settings, to the tab Subtypes and create new subtypes for User and Activity (click on the green plus icon, fill in the new subtype name and hit the Create button).
67 1. Furthermore we need to create a folder, that would hold all the iTrivio courses in case of synchronization from iTrivio, so
68 1*. Log into Competent as the admin user and switch to the Admin view (if you didn't already)
69 1*. Go to the Competent page Activities and create a new folder named for example iTrivio Courses (click on the green plus icon, choose Folder, fill in it's name and click Save).
70
71 === __iTrivio__ ===
72
73 Here we need to create the users that will manipulate iTrivio courses and a folder to store them.
74
75 1. Log into iTrivio as admin user and go to the **Courses & Tests**
76 1. **Create a new folder** named for example Competent courses - this is where all your courses will be stored
77 1. If you want the company default admin user to manage all the courses and users creation in iTrivio, skip to step 7), otherwise
78 1. Go to **Administration **to the section **Users**
79 1. **Create new user** that will be responsible for manipulating all objects in iTrivio (courses and users). Fill just his email, name and surename and assign him the role Administrator.
80 1. Optionally you can create another new user that will be responsible only for creating new users in iTrivio
81 1. Go to the **Usergroups administration** and create new usergroup (for ecample Competent users) - this is where all your new users will be assigned.
82
83 === __Databases info__ ===
84
85 Now we need to write down IDs of all the objects we just created (and some more). If you have both systems fresh installations, you did not create any specific subtypes in Competent and users in iTrivio, you can just use the default values from brackets.
86
87 1. In __Competent__ database, in the table __subtype__ write down
88 1*. **USER_SUBTYPE **(by default 1) = subtype ID of the default_user (column "name") or if you created a specific subtype, find it by its name and write down it's ID
89 1*. **ACTIVITY_SUBTYPE **(by default 2) = subtype ID of the default_timeless_activity (column "name") that has "activity_type_id" = 1. If you created a specific subtype, find it by its name and write down it's ID
90 1. In __Competent__ database, in the table __activity_set__ write down
91 1*. **ACTIVITY_FOLDER **(by default 1) = ID of the folder you created for new itrivio courses (find by name in the column "name")
92 1. In __iTrivio__ database, in the table __company__ write down
93 1*. **COMPANY_ID **(by default 1) = ID of the company that will be synchornized with Competent (find by name in the column "name")
94 1*. **COMPANY_URL **(by default empty) = value from the column "urlContext" of the company that will be synchornized with Competent (find by name in the column "name")
95 1. In __iTrivio__ database, in the table __course__ write down
96 1*. **COURSE_FOLDER **(by default 1) = ID of the folder that you created for new courses created from Competent (find by name in the column "name")
97 1. In __iTrivio__ database, in the table __itrivio_user__ write down
98 1*. If you skipped the steps 4) - 6) in iTrivio preparation and you are using fresh iTrivio instalation, just write down the default values
99 1*. **ADMIN_CREATOR **(by default 2) = ID of the user that will be creating all the users and courses in iTrivio
100 1*. **ADMIN_USER_CREATOR **(by default 2) = ID of the user that will be creating all the users in iTrivio
101 1. In __iTrivio__ database, in the table __usergroup__ write down
102 1*. **USERGROUP **(by default 1) = ID of the usegroup that all your new users will be assigned to
103 1. In __iTrivio__ database, in the table __playerskintemplate__ write down
104 1*. **PLAYER_TEMPLATE **(by default 1) = ID of the player that will play your iTrivio courses (this is optional as the system has a default player)
105
106
107 = Configuration =
108
109 Now you can modify the systems configuration files, use the values written down from databases.
110
111 === __Competent__ ===

113 In the application.properties, or in your own application-yourNameShortcut.properties file set the following propeties:

159 = iTrivio part =
160
161 Run the url "http(s):~/~/<yourdomain>:<port>/(companyUrl/)setCompanyConfig.html" on the domain and port your iTrivio runs and with the companyUrl of the company you are setting this for.
162
163 Fill in the settings COMPETENT_INTEGRATION_XXX:
164
165 * **COMPETENT_INTEGRATION_ENABLED// //**//check the box to be set to true//

171 Save the setting with the **Odeslat **button
172
173 Now open the file "/com.itrivio/src/main/resources/settings.properties" and set the two following properties:
174
175 {{code language="properties"}}
176 # custom environment name, e.g. PROD,DEV,TEST... (must match the competentItrivioIntegration.auth.environment property from Competent)
177 environment.id=PROD
178
179 # secret part of you JWT key - used for communication with the Competent system and creating auto-login links
180 # see also jwt.expiration
181 # (must match the competentItrivioIntegration.auth.key property from Competent)
182 jwt.key=aaasssddd
183 {{/code}}
184
185 = Final setting test =
186
187 Thats it, you should be good to go. Now run both Apps, DO NOT TOUCH ITRIVIO FROM NOW ON. Go to Competent, create some Activity and in Detail, set the RUN_TYPE (Typ spouštění) to iTrivio, then select in type and hit **Save and Create in iTrivio** button. If it works, you are almost good to go. Now try to Edit the course, add one page and then try to run it. if THAT works, you are all set.
