Sync-my-L2P is a program created by students of the RWTH Aachen University for the comfortable download of all available files in RWTH Moodle (formerly L²P). It allows you to easily mirror all files from the learning rooms to your hard disk, so that they are available without internet.
Please note: After more than 9 years, I resign as maintainer. However, a team at the RWTH ITC and Moodle will continue to maintain and improve Sync-my-L2P. The new repository will be: https://github.com/rwthmoodle/Sync-my-L2P
You can download Sync-my-L2P either from the official Website oder here for Windows, Linux and macOS. While on Windows an installer is provided, on macOS a .dmg or homebrew package, and on Linux an AppImage is distributed.
Just use the provided installer.
Make the AppImage executable and open it with a double click.
Open the .dmg and drag&drop Sync-my-L2P to your apps.
Users with home-brew installed can now install Sync-my-L2P with the following commands:
brew tap caskroom/cask followed by brew cask install sync-my-l2p. Updating the program will work with the command brew update to update the program formula, followed by brew upgrade to upgrade the program itself.
For compilation we recommend C++11, Qt (5.11 or higher) and OpenSSL 1.1.1. The easiest way is to load the .pro file into Qt Creator and compile Sync-my-L2P there. From the console you can also run qmake (with appropriate arguments) instead and then the preferred C++ compiler.
Note: A ClientID is required for the program to connect to the API of RWTH Moodle. The RWTH does not allow the publication of such a client ID. However, an individual ClientID can easily be requested.
For distributing Sync-my-L2P on Linux, two options are available:
- Create an AppImage using the
run.shscript provided in thelinuxsubdirectory. - Create an deb package: https://github.com/justin-time/Sync-my-L2P-Linux
