Implementing a CLI to run mirt #203

Closed tlecarrour-ee closed 3 years ago

tlecarrour-ee commented 3 years ago

Hi,

Disclaimer: I checked mirt and mirtCAT documentation, but could not find the information I was looking for, but I might have missed it!

I've been assigned the task to implement a CLI to "replace" a mirtCAT instance, but I don't know where to start! Is there any example in the source code I could check out or any other project implementing this?

Any help or link would be highly appreciated!

Could you describe what you're trying to do first exactly? Also, this is the mirt repo, not mirtCAT, so I'll close this as it doesn't seem relevant to this repo.

Hi @philchalmers

Thanks for your answer! Sorry if this is not the proper place to ask my question, but mirtCAT's Github did not look like the proper place to ask that question.

I'm working for a team that uses mirtCAT, but I have to integrate it in a bigger application written in Python and Javascript.

My goal is to have a frontend (Python/JS) sends the answers to a backend (R/mirt). Having a CLI (interactive question/answer) is my first step to make sur that I can interact with the mirt library in a stateless fashion. But I may have totally missed what mirt is supposted to be (the logic) and what is its relation to mirtCAT (the frontend).

Thank you so much for your time and answers!

Hi @philchalmers

Sorry to bother you again, but… apparently you closed this issue for good. So where do you suggest I ask my question?!

Thank for your time and help.
