pip install edutools-moodle
```

## Quick Start

```python
from edutools_moodle import MoodleAPI

# Initialize the API client
moodle = MoodleAPI(
    moodle_url="https://your-moodle-instance.com",
    token="your_webservice_token"
)

# Get user's enrolled courses
courses = moodle.courses.get_user_courses()

# Get enrolled students in a course
users = moodle.courses.get_enrolled_users(course_id=123)

# Get course groups
groups = moodle.groups.get_course_groups(course_id=123)

# Get assignments for a course

## Configuration

### Generating a Moodle Token

1. Log in to Moodle as administrator

3. Create a new token for your user
4. Copy the token string

### Checking Moodle Version

```python
from edutools_moodle import MoodleAPI

moodle = MoodleAPI("https://your-moodle.com", "token")

# Get site information
info = moodle.get_site_info()
print(f"Moodle version: {info['release']}")
print(f"Site name: {info['sitename']}")

# Check if version is compatible
if moodle.check_moodle_version("3.9"):
    print("✅ Moodle version is compatible")
else:
    print("⚠️ Moodle 3.9+ recommended")
```
