DEFinitions EXam GENerator: programming language to easily create test-based exams from a set of definitions.

Why

To generate test-based exams on the fly, easily.

Install

$ npm i -g defexgen

What is it?

defexgen is a program and a programming language.

The programming language defines the syntax you have to follow when you write your definitions.

The program is the responsible of getting that syntax and creating exams for you.

Syntax

${NAME}:
  ${DEFINITION}

${NAME}:
  ${DEFINITION}

${NAME}:
  ${DEFINITION}

You have to leave 1 line of separation between definitions.

Usage

You can use it from the CLI (passing files) or from the API (passing text).

CLI usage

$ defexgen definitions-1.txt definitions-2.txt definitions-3.txt --output exam.html

This command will read files definitions-1.txt, definitions-2.txt and definitions-3.txt.

From them, it will parse the contents, and generate a exam.html file.

When you open this file with your browser, you will get the exam.

API usage

const htmlPage = require("defexgen").parse(`Name 1:
	Definition of the name 1.

Name 2:
	Definition of the name 2.

Name 3:
	Definition of the name 3.
`);
