The database schema describes the two tables used by the application: item and rating. To set up the application:

  1. Open the admin page and define a tool consumer record and ensure it is available.
  2. Open the dummy launch page, enter the launch URL, key and secret, and launch the application as an Instructor.
  3. Create one (or more) items (the URL and description fields are optional).
  4. Launch the application again as a Learner to check that the items are viewable.
