A set of Moodle plugins that integrate with MediaCore.
Designed to work with Moodle 2.4+
These plugins provide a rich set of Moodle-MediaCore integrations using LMS-LTI to connect with your MediaCore site without having to leave Moodle.
Local - local/mediacore
- Provides a custom LTI integration that is used
by the other plugins.
Repository - repository/mediacore
- Provides a custom 'repository' which
will be selectable from the left hand column of the Moodle "file picker".
TinyMce - lib/editor/tinymce/plugins/mediacore
- Provides a rich
integration with MediaCore, allowing you to launch the "MediaCore Chooser" from
a custom button added to every TinyMCE editor.
Filter - filter/mediacore
- Transforms the video URLs generated by the
TinyMCE and Repository plugins into MediaCore's embedded video player.
To make the installation go smoothly we recommend you remove any old versions of the MediaCore plugin from your Moodle install. This is done by removing the following directories, if they exist:
path/to/moodle/filters/mediacore
path/to/moodle/lib/editor/tinymce/plugins/mediacore
path/to/moodle/local/mediacore
path/to/moodle/repository/mediacore
After doing this you will also need to Navigate to: Site administration -> Plugins -> Plugins Overview
and uninstall the following MediaCore plugin code
from the Moodle database:
MediaCore media filter
Mediacore search
MediaCore media picker
Mediacore Package libraries
** Note: any previous Moodle/MediaCore settings will be removed when you delete or upgrade the MediaCore plugin from v1.6 to v2.0. These old v1.6 settings are no longer valid.*
Once any old versions have been removed, you can begin to install the new version of the plugin.
Upgrading the MediaCore plugin v2.0 is done by copying the following folders into the correct Moodle directories.
filters/mediacore
intopath/to/moodle/filters/
lib/editor/tinymce/plugins/mediacore
intopath/to/moodle/lib/editor/tinymce/plugins/
local/mediacore
intopath/to/moodle/local/
repository/mediacore
intopath/to/moodle/repository/
To finalize the installation you will need to navigate to: Site administration -> Notifications
and click "Check for available updates". Click "Upgrade
Moodle database now" to complete this step.
To hook your MediaCore site into Moodle you must navigate to: Site administration -> Plugins -> Local plugins -> MediaCore package config
and enter:
- the
URL
of your MediaCore site (i.e. http://demo.mediacore.tv). Note if your Moodle site is served over https, then your MediaCore site url should also include https (i.e. https://demo.mediacore.tv) - the name of your
LTI consumer key
(this must match a valid LTI consumer in your MediaCore site) - the secret of your
LTI shared secret
(this also must match the secret in the LTI consumer above)
In order for videos to display in Moodle, you must enable the MediaCore Filter.
This can be turned on by navigating to: Site administration -> Plugins -> Filters -> Manage Filters
and selecting On
from drop down menu in the
active
column next to 'MediaCore media filter'.
You will also need to enable the repository. it may be turned on by navigating
to: Site administration -> Plugins -> Repositories -> Manage Repositories
and
selecting Enabled and visible
from drop down menu next to "MediaCore
search".
