Document how to set up nbgrader for multiple graders when running without JupyterHub

Open jhamrick opened this issue 7 years ago • 1 comments

There is already documentation on how to use nbgrader with multiple graders with JupyterHub, but not when not using JupyterHub.

Briefly, the answer is that you still need access to a shared server, which would host the course directory. You would then run a password-protected version of the notebook on a public port on that server, and give the link to your graders so they can access the formgrader.

The route we use is to use an external database some external FileStore space - unique for each course.

Each Instructor then uses the appropriate db_url for the course database, and mount the external FileStore space into their directory somewhere.... Then set CourseDirectory.root to point to that FileStore directory
