Breaking code changes

GraphQL resolver classes

The GraphQL resolver interfaces have been changed to abstract classes which implement rate-limiting and middleware definitions.

All custom GraphQL resolver classes must be updated:

  • Change implements mutation_resolver to extends mutation_resolver
  • Change implements query_resolver to extends query_resolver
  • Change implements type_resolver to extends type_resolver

Consider in each case whether to override the default methods in the abstract class.

The final keyword has been removed from all core resolver classes that included it, to allow more flexibility for partners wanting to extend existing GraphQL services.

Perform front end

Moved mod_perform/src/js/redirect.js to tui/src/js/dom/form.js, any existing reference will need their paths updated.

In components replace mod_perform/redirect with tui/dom/form.

Notifications front end

Split NotificationPage.vue into two components so that the notification UI can be used in different page layouts.
- NotificationPage.vue now just handles the page layout and Notifications.vue contains the logic previously contained in NotificationPage.vue.
- Ensure any customisations previously made to NotificationPage.vue is correctly split between these two components.

Course container

Moved two PHP entity classes to core, with renames.
- Moved server/container/classes/entity/module.php to server/lib/classes/entity/course_module.php
- Moved server/container/classes/entity/section.php to server/lib/classes/entity/course_section.php

Competency

Moved these server/totara/competency/classes/entity files to server/totara/hierarchy/classes/entity
- scale_assignment.php
- scale_value.php
- scale.php
- competency.php
- competency_repository.php
- competency_type.php
- competency_framework
- competency_framework_repository
- assignment_availability

Moved and renamed totara_competency\entity\competency_scale_assignment to totara_hierarchy\entity\scale_assignment

Moved these server/totara/competency/classes/entity files to server/lib/classes/entity:
- course_repository.php
- course_categories.php
- course.php
