Comments

All course folders are nested. File structure is different

First of all thanks for the extension. It can take all the files from a certain course and that's awesome. The problem here is that the folders at the course root end up to be nested to each other instead of being in the same directory. And also, some files of respective folders are placed inside wrong folder.

Here a screenshot:

Skip next and previous links in folder view

To prevent unwanted crawling from folder view, which I discussed in #17 , I came up with this simple fix that works in my situation. That is to just skip those URLs if the id matches prev-activity-link or next-activity-link.

I don't think that this may cause problems with other institutions' Moodle layout, because if there is no link identified as such nothing changes. Furthermore I think this might be found in some older versions of Moodle, because if it was something custom made from my university I would expect to find some id values in Italian language :laughing: .

Here my situation:

Let the user choose to download folders as zip

The idea is to place a checkbox in the UI to let the user choose whether to download the folders as zip file or not.

Like this:

□ Download folders as zip file

In this way, when chosen to do so, downloading zip file from https://<your_moodle>/mod/folder/download_folder.php?id=<folder_id> would preserve the folder's file structure.

Rewrite get moodle files using bfs
Close #17 .

Previously, the crawling function getMoodleFiles is written using DFS. It could lead to a wrong nested folder structure if there is a previously not yet processed folder URL on the current page.

Example:

folder a / \ folder b folder c / \ folder c file x

In this case, folder c will be considered a child of folder b instead of being skipped. Due to the nature of DFS, it is hard to know that folder c should actually be on the same level as folder b.

Therefore, this PR replaces the DFS implementation with BFS.
