Part of edX code.
This is a django application for edX platform notifications.
It currently sends daily digests of new content to subscribed forums users, with a goal of eventually supporting real-time and batched notifications of various types of content across various channels (e.g. SMS).
To run tests: python manage.py test notifier
To start the celery worker: python manage.py celery worker
To start the scheduler (triggers forums digest notifications on a regular interval): python manage.py scheduler
To manually trigger the nightly forums digest batch job, or to perform other diagnostics (use --help to see
options): python manage.py forums_digest
edX uses Transifex to host translations. To use the Transifex client, be sure it is installed (pip install -r requirements/base.txt
will do this for you), and follow the instructions here to set up your .transifexrc
file.
Django relies on GNU's gettext utilities, which must be installed on your system (packages are available via brew
on OS X and apt-get
on Ubuntu Linux) and on the PATH of the shell from which you run the commands below.
To extract and upload translatable strings: python manage.py makemessages -l en; tx push -s
To download and compile a translation: tx pull -l <locale>; python manage.py compilemessages
, where <locale>
is the locale name for the desired language.
To run the notifier in a language other than English, set the NOTIFIER_LANGUAGE
environment variable to the language code for the desired language.
