Thanks Achim. The two dots trick worked perfectly. |

You need "../Exams" (with two rather than three dots). And if that doesn't work, then try the absolute rather than relative path. |

Thanks Achim, It seems I am missing something. I followed your suggestion and used library("exams") Test3 <- list(c("q1_1.Rmd", "q1_5.Rmd"), "q2_2.Rmd", "q2_5.Rmd" ) exams2blackboard(Test3_403,n=10,name="Test3", schoice = list(enumerate = FALSE), eval = list(partial = FALSE, negative = FALSE), edir = ".../Exams") where "Exams" is the name of the common root folder which contains subfolders where the above questions are saved. However, I got the following error Error in file_path_as_absolute(edir) : file '.../Exams' does not exist I am wondering also if it possible to force exams2blackboard to save the zip file to another folder I specify. Thanks in advance for your help. |

It is possible if folders "One" and "Two" are in a common root folder, e.g., .../Exams/2019/One/ .../Exams/2020/Two/ then you could set exams2blackboard(..., edir = ".../Exams/"). Subfolders are then searched automatically. |
Create an exam from files located in different folders [ Reply ] By: Faisal Almalki on 2020-06-19 12:21 | [forum:47852] |
Hi all... I am wondering if it is possible to create an exam from questions files located in different folders so that I can export it into Blackboard. For example, I want to take q1_1.rmd, q1_5.rmd, q1_10.rmd from folder One and q2_2.rmd, q2_5.rmd, q2_8.rmd from folder Two to create an exam based on those questions. I do it currently by copying all the required files into a separate folder and then create an exam using exams2blackboard. But, I feel this is inefficient way to do that. Thanks for your continued help and support for Rexams community. Faisal |
