# About LRR
LRR (Lab Report Repository) is an online software application for posting assignments, submitting assignments and marking (re-marking) assignments.
This software was originally developed by by Mahomed Nor, a graduate student in the Department of Computer Science at the Zhejiang Normal University,
while he was taking a graduate course called **Advanced Software Engineering** (http://lanlab.org/course/2018f/se/homepage.html).
The LRR's project home page is at http://118.25.96.118/nor/homepage/index.html.
# Mission
Our mission is to make the experience of submitting assignments great for tens of hundreds of students in the department of computer science at the Zhejiang Normal University (Jinhua City, Zhejiang Province).
# Installation Instructions
Check file INSTALLATION.md (TBA) for details.
# Current Status
This software has been actively used by students who took or are
taking courses (Introduction to Software Engineering and Software
Project Management) taught by Hui.
There are more than 200 student accounts created since its first
launch in 2018.
A running instance of this software is at http://118.25.96.118/nor/
There are about 40 bugs (most being CRITICAL) that remain unresolved
before LRR can hit its beta release. See the section *The Bug
Tracker* for more detail. Currently, there are a few groups (formed
by students who are taking Software Project Management) working on
these bugs.
# The Bug Tracker
Most bugs of this software are recorded on the bug tracker for LRR:

# TODO
- *Receiving email for password resetting*. Password resetting link is not always sent successfully.
- *How assignements should be stored?* Creating sub-directories on all student submissions course-code/semester/section-number. (/student-number/course-code/semester/section-number/assignement-title/submission.txt)
- *Feature request*. Editing the assignment title after uploading a new assignment (instructor).
- [SOLVED] A new user could not login immediately after sign up.
# How to Contribute
We welcome your participation in this project.
Your participation does not have to be in the form of contributing code. You could help us on
ideas, suggestions, documentation, etc.
You need to be an invited member of *Lan Laboratory* before you can
push your feature branch or bugfix branch to the central reops at
https://github.com/lanlab-org
Send Hui (lanhui at zjnu.edu.cn) an email message including your
GitHub account name so that he could invite you to be a member of *Lan
Laboratory*.
Currently, there are 9 members in *Lan Laboratory* (https://github.com/orgs/lanlab-org/people).
You will use the feature-branching workflow (see below) when
interacting with the central repo. The main point of this workflow is
that you work on a branch on your local drive, push that branch to the
central repo, and create a Pull Request (i.e., Pull Me Request) at
GitHub for other people to review your changes. When everything is
OK, then you could merge your changes to the master branch in the
central repo.
I believe that *code review* at the Pull Request stage is a very
important activity for effectively improving both code quality and
team quality.
## Communications method
For real-time communication, check our IRC channel `#lrr` at irc.freenode.org.
To submit bug reports or improvement ideas, please ask Hui [lanhui at zjnu.edu.cn] to open a Bugzilla account for you.
## The Feature-branching Workflow
We will use the feature-branching workflow for collaboration. The
idea is that make your own branch, work on it, and push this branch to
the central repo for review.
