WHAT IS IT?

CAT-SOOP is a tool for automatic collection and assessment of online exercises, originally developed primarily for use in MIT's 6.01 (Introduction to Electrical Engineering and Computer Science via Robotics).

CAT-SOOP is free/libre software, available under the terms of the GNU Affero General Public License, version 3+. Please note that the terms of this license apply to the CAT-SOOP system itself and any plugins in use, but not to any course material hosted on a CAT-SOOP instance, unless explicitly stated otherwise.

HOW DO I INSTALL IT?

To install, run:

pip3 setup.py install

Or, from a clone of the repository, run:

python setup.py install

Configuring

To generate a config.py file, run:

catsoop configure

If you are setting up a public-facing copy of CAT-SOOP (as opposed to a local copy for debugging purposes), see the instructions at https://catsoop.mit.edu/website/docs/installing/server_configuration

Running

To start the server, run:

catsoop runserver

Testing

To run all the unit tests:

python setup.py test

IS IT ANY GOOD?

Yes.
