canvas-workflow's Issues

Feature request: support for assignment overrides

Add support for "assignment overrides", more specifically multiple due dates.

canvas-workflow assignment matching does not find shortest length match

At lib/canvas/workflow/tags/assignment.rb@15

assignments = client.list_assignments(course, :search_term => title).to_a
                                                                                
raise ArgumentError.new("Assignment does not exist") if assignments.empty?
                                                                                
# return the first, which /should/ be the shortest length string, so  
# first lexicographically                                             
assignments.first[:id] 

assignments.first[:id] will not necessarily be the shortest match, it will be the assignment that appears first in assignment view. Thus if there are two assignments named Intro to Haskell (Prelab) and Intro to Haskell, if they appear in that order on canvas, then Intro to Haskell will overwrite Intro to Haskell (Prelab) since `Intro to Haskell (Prelab) will be returned in the the assignment search and it will be first since it appears first on canvas.

canvas-workflow does not respect assignment groups

If an assignment write-up in the repository exists in an assignment group besides the default group, then it is recreated in the default group instead of being updated where it currently exists.

Feature request: support for tabbed navigation

Add a yaml key in the front-matter that would trigger tabbed navigation, so something like:

tabs:
  - Code
  - Issues
  - Pull requests
  - Insights
  - Settings

would produce the html for a set of five tabs similar to those on GitHub. The content for the tabs would be included under ?headings? of the same name.

Feature request: support for assignment sub-directories

Currently all assignments must be markdown files in assignments directory. I would like to be able to organize assignments into sub-directories.
