E1961 Email notification to reviewers and instructors


Brief Introduction

E1961 Project aims to fix the problems of making the email notification function more reliable.

The forked git repository for this project can be found [1]


Problem Statement

The following tasks were accomplished in this project:

  • Issue1: Fix the problem that the author(reviewee) cannot receive the email notification about the review from someone else. The Expertiza is supposed to email authors each time a review of their work is submitted.
  • Issue2: Fix the bugs to make Expertiza emails reviewers each time an author that they have reviewed submits new work.
  • Issue3: The instructor could get a Blind carbon copy every time.
  • Issue4: The users can turn off those email notifications by unchecking boxes on their profile page.


Issue1

Add a method in both "update" and "create" functions to call the email function to make the Experiza send the email to reviewee when reviewers submit the reviews

app/controllers/response_controller.rb:

  def send_email_to_reviewee(map)
    defn = {body: {type: "Peer Review", partial_name: "new_submission"} }
    map.email(defn, Assignment.find(Participant.find(map.reviewer_id).parent_id))
  end


Issue2

app/controllers/submitted_content_controller.rb: .....................................................

def email_all_reviewers(participant)
    if participant.reviewers != []
      participant.reviewers.each do |reviewer|
        map = ReviewResponseMap.where(['reviewer_id = ? and reviewee_id = ?', reviewer.id, participant.team.id]).first
        responses = Response.where(:map_id => map.id)
        responses = responses.sort_by { |obj| obj.updated_at }

        # the latest response will be the last
        latest_response = responses.last

        # we need to pass the id of lastest_response in the URL mentioned in the mail.
        # this will open the correct /response/edit?id=#{latest_response.id} page for the reviewer when (s)he clicks on it.

        user = User.find(reviewer.user_id)
        instructor = User.find(user.parent_id)
        bcc_mail_address = ""
        if instructor.copy_of_emails?
          bcc_mail_address = instructor.email
        else
          # do noting
        end
        if user.email_on_submission?
          MailerHelper.send_mail_to_reviewer(user,
                                             bcc_mail_address,
                                             "You have a new submission to review",
                                             "update",
                                             "Please visit https://expertiza.ncsu.edu/response/edit?id=#{latest_response.id} and proceed to peer reviews.").deliver
        end
      end
    end
  end

        bcc: bcc_mail_address,
        subject: subject,
        body: {
            user: user,
            first_name: ApplicationHelper.get_user_first_name(user),
            message: note,
            partial_name: partial_name
