Requirements

• n8n (any version with community node support)
• Moodle 3.x+ with Web Services enabled
• Valid Moodle Web Service token

Development

# Install dependencies
npm install

# Build for production
npm run build

# Development mode (auto-compile on changes)
npm run dev

# Lint
npm run lint

Testing

The project includes an integration test suite (vitest) that runs the node's
execute() against a real Moodle instance.

Setup

1. Copy .env.example to .env and fill in your credentials:

   cp .env.example .env
   

   Variable	Description
   MOODLE_URL	Base URL of your Moodle instance (no trailing slash)
   MOODLE_TOKEN	Web Service token with permissions for the operations under test

   .env is gitignored — never commit your token.

2. Run the tests:

   npm test                 # run all tests
   npm run test:integration # run only the integration suite
   npm run test:watch       # watch mode
   

If .env is missing, the integration tests are skipped (they don't fail).

Covered resources

• System — getSiteInfo, getAuthPlugins, getSiteFeatures
• User — create, get, getByField, getPreferences, update, delete
• Course — createCategory, create, get, getAll, getSections, update, delete, deleteCategory
• Enrollment — enrol, getCourseUsers, getUserCourses, unenrol
• Group — create, get, getCourseGroups, update, delete
• Cohort — create, get, update, delete

Each test creates unique test data and cleans it up afterwards (afterAll).

Requirements for a successful run

The web service token user needs the capabilities to run the tested functions
(core_user_*, core_course_*, core_group_*, core_cohort_*,
core_enrol_*, enrol_manual_*) and the standard student role id (5) must
exist for the enrollment tests.
