This set of PHP classes encapsulates the code required by a Learning Tools Interoperability<sup>®</sup> (LTI<sup>®</sup>) compliant tool provider to communicate with an LTI tool consumer.
|
||
|
|
It includes support for LTI 1.1 and the unofficial extensions to LTI 1.0, as well as the registration process and services of LTI 2.0.
|
||
|
|
These classes are an extension of the LTI Tool Provider class library created by the ceLTIc project (http://www.spvsoftwareproducts.com/php/lti_tool_provider/).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Whilst supporting LTI is relatively simple, the benefits to using a class library like this one are:
|
||
|
|
* the abstraction layer provided by the classes keeps the LTI communications separate from the application code;
|
||
|
|
* the code can be re-used between multiple tool providers;
|
||
|
|
* LTI data is transformed into useful objects and missing data automatically replaced with sensible defaults;
|
||
|
|
* the outcomes service function uses LTI 1.1 or the unofficial outcomes extension according to whichever is supported by the tool consumer;
|
||
|
|
* the unofficial extensions for memberships and setting services are supported;
|
||
|
|
* additional functionality is included to:
|
||
|
|
* enable/disable a consumer key;
|
||
|
|
* set start and end times for enabling access for each consumer key;
|
||
|
|
* set up arrangements such that users from different resource links can all collaborate together within a single tool provider link;
|
||
|
|
* tool providers can take advantage of LTI updates with minimal impact on their application code.

The wiki area of this repository contains [documentation](https://github.com/IMSGlobal/LTI-Tool-Provider-Library-PHP/wiki) for this library. The [rating LTI application](https://github.com/IMSGlobal/LTI-Sample-Tool-Provider-PHP) is based on this library to further illustrate how it can be used.
