Function load

pub async fn load(__arg0: Path<(i64, i64)>) -> impl IntoResponse

GET /api/modules/{module_id}/assignments/{assignment_id}/mark_allocator

Load the mark allocator JSON configuration for a specific assignment. Accessible to users with appropriate permissions assigned to the module.

The mark allocator configuration defines how marks are distributed across different tasks and criteria within an assignment. This configuration is used by the grading system to determine the weight and allocation of marks for various assessment components.

Path Parameters

• module_id (i64): The ID of the module containing the assignment
• assignment_id (i64): The ID of the assignment to load mark allocator for

Example Request

curl -X GET http://localhost:3000/api/modules/1/assignments/2/mark_allocator \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer <token>"

Mark Allocator Structure

The mark allocator configuration typically contains:

• tasks: Array of task configurations with mark allocations
  • task_number: Sequential number of the task
  • weight: Relative weight of this task in the overall assignment (0.0 to 1.0)
  • criteria: Array of grading criteria for this task
    • name: Name of the grading criterion
    • weight: Weight of this criterion within the task (0.0 to 1.0)
• total_weight: Sum of all task weights (should equal 1.0)

Notes

• The mark allocator configuration is stored as a JSON file in the module/assignment directory
• This configuration is used by the grading system to calculate final marks
• Task weights should sum to 1.0 across all tasks in the assignment
• Criteria weights within each task should also sum to 1.0
• Mark allocator loading is restricted to users with appropriate module permissions
