Overview

Class for consuming/generating LTI Outcome Requests

Outcome Request documentation: www.imsglobal.org/lti/v1p1pd/ltiIMGv1p1pd.html#_Toc309649691

This class can be used by both Tool Providers and Tool Consumers. Each will use it a bit differently. The Tool Provider will use it to POST an OAuth-signed request to a TC. A Tool Consumer will use it to parse such a request from a TP.

Tool Provider Usage

An OutcomeRequest will generally be created through a configured ToolProvider object. See the ToolProvider documentation.

Tool Consumer Usage

When an outcome request is sent from a TP the body of the request is XML. This class parses that XML and provides a simple interface for accessing the information in the request. Typical usage would be:

# create an OutcomeRequest from the request object
req = IMS::LTI::OutcomeRequest.from_post_request(request)

# access the source id to identify the user who's grade you'd like to access
req.lis_result_sourcedid

# process the request
if req.replace_request?
  # set a new score for the user
elsif req.read_request?
  # return the score for the user
elsif req.delete_request?
  # clear the score for the user
else
  # return an unsupported OutcomeResponse
end
