LTI Bootcamp (Python)

Welcome to the LTI Bootcamp (Python Edition)!

This repository provides all the necessary files and activities to help you set up a working LTI environment using Docker, Python, and Node.js.

Overview

Topology

In this workshop, we will:

  • Set up a Docker-based environment to run Moodle with LTI support.
  • Configure and run an LTI 1.3 tool.
  • Work through hands-on activities to understand how to develop and test LTI applications.

Prerequisites

Before starting the workshop, please ensure you have the following installed:

You will also need administrator access to update your machine's hosts file to map the domains platform.ltitraining.net and tool.ltitraining.net to your local development environment.

Python is provided within the Docker environment, so there is no need to install specific versions of Python to get the application running.

Optional

The code in this workshop uses TailwindCSS. If you wish to modify the visual aspects of the projects you may need ;

  • TailwindCSS CLI (for CSS framework utility)
  • Node.js (for running JavaScript-based tools, such as npx)

For detailed installation instructions, please see Activity 0: Installing Prerequisites.

Checklist

A quick checklist is available to confirm everything is running correctly;
