The certificate plugin offers an enhanced support for creating and administrating certificates inside ILIAS.
- Multiple certificate types with different layouts
- Generate pretty PDF layouts with JasperReports, the world’s most popular open source reporting engine
- Custom placeholders in certificates
- Multiple languages
- Certificates (pdf files) are stored in the ILIAS data directory instead of getting generated dynamically
- Revision of files
- Rendering PDF certificates with the integraded PDF Service in ILIAS (>= 4.4) or with JasperReports
This plugin has some dependencies on other plugins and services. Please follow the installation guide of the documentation.
An installation and user guide is available in the doc/Documentation.pdf file.
- ILIAS 5.3 or ILIAS 5.4
- PHP >=5.6
The following classes/methods need to be patched in order for the plugin to work correctly. Most likely these patches will be part of the ILIAS core in future ILIAS versions.
This Patch is no longer required with ILIAS 5.3.
Copy whole method or the code blocks between PATCH START and PATCH END
public static function _updatePassed($a_obj_id, $a_usr_id, $a_passed, $a_manual = false, $a_no_origin = false)

}This Patch is only needed if you want to copy certificate definitions if a course is copied. It throws an additional event after cloning a course (append the patch at the end of the method).
public function cloneObject($a_target_id,$a_copy_id = 0)
{
// [..]
// BEGIN PATCH
global $ilAppEventHandler;
$ilAppEventHandler->raise('Modules/Course',
'copy',
array('object' => $new_obj, 'cloned_from_object' => $this)
);
// END PATCH
return $new_obj;
