add extensions for robot plugins to the lab

OpenRoberta / openroberta-lab

The programming environment »Open Roberta Lab« by Fraunhofer IAIS enables children and adolescents to program robots. A variety of different programming blocks are provided to program motors and sensors of the robot. Open Roberta Lab uses an approach of graphical programming so that beginners can seamlessly start coding. As a cloud-based application, the platform can be used without prior installation of specific software but runs in any popular browser, independent of operating system and device.

Closed rbudde closed 1 week ago

rbudde commented 3 months ago

neural networks are the first extension of robot plugins of the lab. They can be declared for each plugin as

never
always
selectable

In the case of selectable the start page gets a dropdown, that allows the user to select the plugin.

Todos:

declare the property in the plugin properties
add the extension to the setRobot REST-call
create default programs and toolboxes based on selected extensions
if the user made a selection and generates a bookmark, remember the selection in the bookmark

Changes:

front end
back end
transport classes

the following problems will be solved later (in an issue of its own):

a tutorial should know about the extensions
a shared program, e.g. with the gallery, should know about the extensions
an exported program resp. a program from the database has no information about extensions. Thus you may run a plugin without extensions and load a program using extensions. This is not the source of probems, but maybe the source of user confusion.
