Close

An extension to add a close button and/or prompts.

As of v2.1.0 this extension will now call LMSFinish on close if the Spoor extension is installed, enabled and connected to an LMS. This can be used as a workaround for those Learning Management Systems that are affected by the disallow sync XHR in page dismissal change to Chromium-based browsers (such as Chrome, Edge and Opera) and which have yet to be updated to avoid being affected by this change. Note that this will only work if the close button functionality is enabled and the learner uses the close button to close the course. It will not have any impact if the learner closes the browser window/tab directly.

Installation

  • Add the example JSON to course.json.
  • With Adapt CLI installed, run adapt install close. Alternatively, download the ZIP and extract into the src > extensions directory.
  • Run an appropriate Grunt task.

Usage

  • A close button can be added to the navigation bar.
  • When the learner clicks the close button, a Notify prompt can be shown that asks the learner to confirm they want to exit (or return to the course)
  • A browser dialog can be displayed if the learner closes the window/tab in a normal fashion i.e. using the browser window/tab close button/equivalent keyboard shortcut

Attributes

_isEnabled (boolean):

Enables/disables this extension. The default value is false. Set this to true to enable this extension.

browserPromptIfIncomplete (string):

Populate with text to display a browser dialog if the learner attempts to close the course window/tab when the course hasn't yet been completed

browserPromptIfComplete (string):

Populate with text to display a browser dialog if the learner attempts to close the course window/tab when the course has been completed

Note: Firefox, Chrome and Edge do not allow custom text to be included in the browser dialog. Additionally, most 'evergreen' browsers now seem to ignore any attempt to display a dialog in response to the beforeunload event if the user hasn't interacted with the page.

_button (object):

Contains the following settings:

  • _isEnabled (boolean):
    Controls whether a close button should be added to the top navigation bar or not. Set this to false if you just want to have the browser dialog (see above) show on exit. The default value is false.

  • _closeViaLMSFinish (boolean): Set to true to let the SCORM LMSFinish routine handle closing the course. This can be useful when the course hasn't been opened in a new window or where the course window can't be closed via JavaScript. This setting should only be enabled if the course will be launched from a SCORM-conformant Learning Management System that supports this functionality. The default value is false.

  • _notifyPromptIfIncomplete (object):
    Contains the following settings:

    • _isEnabled (boolean):
      Controls whether a prompt should be displayed if the learner clicks the close button when the course hasn't yet been completed. The default value is false.

    • title (string):
      Title of the prompt e.g. "Confirm close"

    • body (string):
      Body text of the prompt e.g. "Are you sure you want to exit the course? You have not yet completed all the content."

    • confirm (string):
      Confirm button text e.g. "Exit course".

    • cancel (string):
      Cancel button text e.g. "Cancel".

  • _notifyPromptIfComplete (object):
    Contains the following settings:

    • _isEnabled (boolean):
      Controls whether a prompt should be displayed if the learner clicks the close button when the course has been completed. The default value is false.

    • title (string):
      Title of the prompt e.g. "Confirm close"

    • body (string):
      Body text of the prompt e.g. "Are you sure you want to exit the course?"

      Confirm button text e.g. "Exit course".

    • cancel (string):
