Allowing students to download files

Files stored in the subdirectory “public” of a task are available to download from the frontend.

For example, if you have a course with course id “courseA”, and a task with task id “taskB”, and if you want to distribute an image named “flower.png”, you will have to put it inside the folder “/path/to/INGInious/tasks/courseA/taskB/public/”.

The image will then be available with the url: http://domain.name.com/course/courseA/taskB/flower.png

This allows you to insert images inside the context of your tasks, and to share additional resources like datasets or slides.
