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
(coreuser, corecourse, coregroup, corecohort,
coreenrol, enrolmanual) and the standard student role id (5) must
exist for the enrollment tests.
