Initialise a directory

Run the following from the directory where you want to keep your marking:

scholia init

This creates a scholia/ subdirectory containing two files:

  • scheme.yaml: an empty marking scheme, ready to be edited.
  • students.csv: a roster with only the header row student_id.

If either file already exists, scholia skips it and reports this in the output. It is therefore safe to re-run scholia init without overwriting work in progress.

The full directory layout after initialisation is:

scholia/
    scheme.yaml
    students.csv

The feedback/ subdirectory, marks.csv, summary.md, and charts/ are created later when scholia mark is run.
