This plugin allows to create real time votings within ILIAS. It is compatible with the previous LiveVoting plugin for ILIAS < 7.0.

Installation & Update

Please, notice that previous versions of the plugin were numbered with dates (e.g. 2021.01.01). This version is numbered with the ILIAS version it is compatible with (e.g. ilias9 -> 9.x). You need to change the plugin version in the il_plugin table of the database to something lower than 9.0.0 before running the following commands.

1. Ensure you delete any previous LiveVoting folder in Customizing/global/plugins/Services/Repository/RepositoryObject/

2. Create subdirectories, if necessary for Customizing/global/plugins/Services/Repository/RepositoryObject/ or run the following script from the ILIAS root

mkdir -p Customizing/global/plugins/Services/Repository/RepositoryObject
cd Customizing/global/plugins/Services/Repository/RepositoryObject

3. Then, execute:

git clone https://github.com/surlabs/LiveVotingRW.git ./LiveVoting
cd LiveVoting
git checkout ilias9

Ensure you run composer and npm install at platform root before you install/update the plugin

composer install --no-dev

npm install

Run ILIAS update script at platform root

php setup/setup.php update

Ensure you don't ignore plugins at the ilias .gitignore files and don't use --no-plugins option at ILIAS setup
