About

This is a module, which integrates etherpad-lite in Moodle 3.5 or higher

Features:

  • Add / View / Delete Pads
  • Users have the same name & writing color in all pads
  • Moodle Import / Export support
  • optional guest allowance
  • It supports etherpad-lite servers, which can only be accessed through the API (access only through Moodle)
  • It can check the HTTPS certificate of the ep-lite server for full security (man in the middle attacks)

Prerequirement

You need an etherpad-lite server, which is running on at least the same 2nd-level-domain as your moodle server.

On the github page you'll find all information you need, to install the server: https://github.com/ether/etherpad-lite

We recommend to use the etherpad-lite version 1.8.0 or higher

It's also recommended to use the latest stable release of nodejs (http://nodejs.org/)

we are using nodejs 0.8.26. But we test new ep-lite versions always with this node version, before updating productive

When you want, that the server is only accessible via Moodle, then I recommend to install ep_remove_embed over the ep-lite admin interface. This removes the embed link.
To access the admin area, uncomment the user section in settings.json
