E1529. Extend the Email notification feature to scheduled tasks

Overview

THIS IS COPIED OVER OLD PAGE TO SERVE AS A TEMPLATE

Introduction to Expertiza

Expertiza is a web application developed by Ruby on Rails framework. It serves as a peer review system for professors and students at NC State and some other colleges and universities<ref>Expertiza Github</ref>. Students can submit different assignments and peer-review reusable learning objects (articles, code, web sites, etc). It is also a powerful tool for professor to manage courses and assignments and so on. The latest "Rails 4" branch of Expertiza, although combined with various enhancements from the past two years, is seriously broken, from data migration to key feature implementation. Part of the reason has been the design strategy and code changes by various teams.

Email notification feature to scheduled tasks

This is a feature that has already been partially implemented in Expertiza E1451 implemented both sychronous and asychoronous mailers. Sychronous Emails refer to the Emails sent immediatly after an event (e.g. when student receive a peer-review). Asychoronous Email we implemented by the Gem "delayed job” and when a task (asychronous Email) is added to the delayed queue, a count-down number of minutes needs to be specified.

Our team aims to extend this project. This wiki page documents the problem analysis and provides a guideline for future development and enhancement.
