Lemur Learning
==============

[](#lemur-learning)

**Status: Beta**

An e-learning app for the [Elefant CMS](http://www.elefantcms.com/). Lemur aims to be the Wordpress of e-learning, a free and ultra-simple way to publish and host your own courses that keeps you in control.

However, Lemur has a ways to go before it is ready for non-developers. We still have reams of documentation to write, and more work to do to make it as simple as possible to get up and running, regardless of your skill level.

Lemur Learning is brought to you by the [Centre for Education and Work](http://www.cewca.org/), a Canadian non-profit dedicated to helping Canadians improve their lives through learning.

Here is a screenshot of the Lemur Learning course editor:

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

First, you will need to install the [Elefant CMS](http://www.elefantcms.com/download). Once that is running, follow these steps:

1\. From the root folder of the site run the following command:

```
php composer.phar require elefant/app-lemur
```

This will also install the following apps that Lemur depends on:

- [Comments](https://github.com/jbroadway/comments)
- [SCORM](https://github.com/jbroadway/scorm)
- [Stripe Payments](https://github.com/jbroadway/stripe)

> **Note:** You may need to add `"minimum-stability": "dev"` to your `composer.json`file in order for Composer to work correctly while Lemur is still in development.

> **Payments:** Additional payment providers can be supported by implementing the [payment handler interface found here](https://github.com/jbroadway/stripe#creating-a-member-payment-or-subscription-form). More documentation and examples still to come.

2\. Copy the file `apps/lemur/sample_bootstrap.php` into your document root and rename it `bootstrap.php`. If a `bootstrap.php` already exists, open the file and add the relevant lines of code to your existing `bootstrap.php` file.

```
cp apps/lemur/sample_bootstrap.php bootstrap.php
```

3\. Copy the `apps/lemur/theme` folder into your `layouts` folder and rename it `lemur`.

```
cp -R apps/lemur/theme layouts/lemur
```

4\. Log into Elefant and run the Lemur installer by navigating to Tools &gt; Courses.

### Optional steps

[](#optional-steps)

5\. Add the following line to the `[Hooks]` section of `conf/config.php` to enable email notifications of comments to course instructors:

```
comments/add[] = lemur/hook/comments

```

6\. Go to Tools &gt; Navigation and add the `Courses` page to your site tree.

7\. Go to Tools &gt; Designer and set the Lemur layout as your default.

8\. Copy the `product.php` file from your `apps/lemur` folder into the global `conf` folder, overwriting the existing copy. This will replace the Elefant branding with Lemur's own.

You should now have a working Lemur installation.

First steps
-----------

[](#first-steps)

To create courses, go to Tools &gt; Courses. To install SCORM modules for use in your courses, go to Tools &gt; SCORM. To view the list of courses on your site visit the `/courses` URL and you will see any publicly visible courses listed there.

Documentation
-------------

[](#documentation)

Early documentation is available through Lemur's [Github wiki page](https://github.com/cewca/lemur/wiki).
