Adapt Framework Version 6 Prototype

[oliverfoster]

fixes #2526
fixes #2363

original issues #3044

What's changed?

1. We have NPM install support for plugins via our normal registry server. The server is publically available for those who wish to host their own registries. A registry server can be setup to fallback to any other public npm registry. The default server fallback registry is to the npm public registry but it is possible to chain to the adapt registry which then chains to the npm one. Any plugins registered in the server should be installable via npm using the registry at https://adapt-bower-repository.herokuapp.com/npm/. With:

//.npmrc
registry=https://adapt-bower-repository.herokuapp.com/npm/

2. The core has been broken into the following pieces:
   adapt-contrib-core Model/view registry, tracking, offlineStorage, fixes, logging and wait queues
   adapt-contrib-data Data loader, router, scrollto, location, startcontroller
   adapt-contrib-mpabc Menu, page, article, block and component interfaces
   adapt-contrib-a11y Accessibility layer
   adapt-contrib-device Device identification and breakpoints
   adapt-contrib-drawer Side drawer
   adapt-contrib-navigation Navigation
   adapt-contrib-notify Notify
   With adapt-contrib-tooltip yet to come.
3. We've gotten rid of src/course in favour of build/course
4. React, bower and semver are all now installed node modules.
5. It will be possible to use (most/some) npm modules in courses moving forwards (tbc as to limitations).
6. Most existing plugins should be compatible (tbc, with the addition or injection of a package.json)

Testing

1. Run the following commands

git clone https://github.com/adaptlearning/adapt_framework v6-test
cd v6-test
git checkout issue/v6
cd src/
npm install
cd ../
npm install
grunt dev

2. Once built, cancel the dev task with ctrl+c, then run

grunt server

3. Please have a look around and post any comments on this pr

Todo

• LESS: Much of the styling needs to be moved into the right extensions
• SCHEMAS: The grunt tasks do not yet apply defaults from the new AAT schemas, the old AAT schemas will not work with v6 without sustantial work but the new AAT schema styles should be able to do what's necessary, they have yet to be cleaned up and trimmed. We need to decide if v6 will support the classic AAT / vice-versa.
• adapt-cli is not yet compatible with v6 but the adapt install command etc will be made v6 compatible Add npm layer adapt-cli#175
• grunt build includes do not yet work with dependent extensions, such that if resources is included but drawer is not, drawer will not yet be added to the construction phase

Should be fixed for v16 now. Thanks for checking.

Able run through the install and for the most part working nicely. Getting the below issue when answering the 4th question on the question components page (c-62)

Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'notFinal') at McqModel.setAttemptSpecificFeedback (QuestionModel.js:287:57) at McqModel.setupIncorrectFeedback (QuestionModel.js:283:10) at McqModel.setupFeedback (ItemsQuestionModel.js:160:10) at McqView.setupFeedback (QuestionView.js:514:18) at McqView._runModelCompatibleFunction (QuestionView.js:544:7) at McqView.onSubmitClicked (QuestionView.js:212:10) at McqView.onButtonStateUpdate (QuestionView.js:146:14) at p (backbone.min.js:2:3295) at v (backbone.min.js:2:3081) at u (backbone.min.js:2:902)
