**ReCodEx** is designed to be very modular and configurable. One such configuration is sketched in the following picture. There are two separate frontend instances with distinct databases sharing common backend part. This configuration may be suitable for MFF UK -- basic programming course and KSP competition. Note, that connections between components are not fully accurate.
**Web app** is main part of whole project from user point of view. It provides nice user interface and it's the only part, that interacts with outside world directly. **Web API** contains almost all logic of the app including _user management and authentication_, _storing and versioning files_ (with help of **File server**), _counting and assigning points_ to users etc. Advanced users may connect to the API directly or may create custom frontends. **Broker** is essential part of whole architecture. It maintains list of available **Workers**, receives submissions from the **Web API** and routes them further and reports progress of evaluations back to the **Web app**. **Worker** securely runs each received job and evaluate it's results. **Monitor** resends evaluation progress messages to the **Web app** in order to be presented to users.

#### File server side
File server has its own internal directory structure, where all the files are stored. It provides simple REST API to get them or create new ones. File server doesn't provide authentication or secured connection by itself, but it's supposed to run file server as WSGI script inside a web server (like Apache) with proper configuration. Relevant commands for communication with workers:
- **GET /submission_archives/\<id\>.\<ext\>** - gets an archive with submitted source code and corresponding configuration of this job evaluation
- **GET /tasks/\<hash\>** - gets a file, common usage is for input files or reference result files
- **PUT /results/\<id\>.\<ext\>** - upload archive with evaluation results under specified name (should be same _id_ as name of submission archive). On successful upload returns JSON `{ "result": "OK" }` as body of returned page.
- **GET /submission_archives/\<id\>.\<ext\>** -- gets an archive with submitted source code and corresponding configuration of this job evaluation
- **GET /tasks/\<hash\>** -- gets a file, common usage is for input files or reference result files
- **PUT /results/\<id\>.\<ext\>** -- upload archive with evaluation results under specified name (should be same _id_ as name of submission archive). On successful upload returns JSON `{ "result": "OK" }` as body of returned page.
If not specified otherwise, `zip` format of archives is used. Symbol `/` in API description is root of file server's domain. If the domain is for example `fs.recodex.org` with SSL support, getting input file for one task could look as GET request to `https://fs.recodex.org/tasks/8b31e12787bdae1b5766ebb8534b0adc10a1c34c`.

Tasks are executed sequentially -- by the linear ordering of the task graph. Parallel tasks (tasks, which are not directly dependent and thus their linear ordering may be arbitrary) are ordered first by their priority (higher number means higher priority) and secondly by their order in the configuration file. Priority is important for specifying evaluation flow. See sample picture for better understanding.
![Picture of task serialization](https://github.com/ReCodEx/wiki/raw/master/images/Assignment_overview.png)
Each task has a unique ID (alphanum string like _CompileA_, _RunAA_, or _JudgeAB_ in the picture). These IDs are used to identify tasks (for dependency references, in the log, ...). Numbers in bottom right corner are priorities of each task. Higher number means greater priority. It means, that if task _RunAA_ is done, next must be _JudgeAA_ and not _RunAB_ (that will be also valid linear ordering, but _RunAB_ has lower priority).

Each task might have assigned a _test-id_ parameter, as described above. Every test must consist of at least two tasks: execution and evaluation by a judge. The former retrieves information about the execution such as elapsed time and memory consumed, the latter result with a score - float between 0 and 1. There may be more than one execution tasks, but evaluation task must be exactly one.
Every assignment consists of tasks. Only some tasks however are part of the evaluation. Those tasks are grouped into **tests**. Each task might have assigned a _test-id_ parameter, as described above. Every test must consist of at least two tasks: execution and evaluation by a judge. The former retrieves information about the execution such as elapsed time and memory consumed, the latter result with a score -- float between 0 and 1. There may be more than one execution tasks, but evaluation task must be exactly one.
Total resulting score of the assignment submission is then calculated according to a supplied score config (described below). Total score is also a float between 0 and 1. This number is then multiplied by the maximum of points awarded for the assignment by the teacher assigning the exercise - not the exercise author.

We create a stage for each of the steps of this pipeline -- we run flex and test
the output, then we run bison on top of previous stage results and do the same. This is more advanced configuration and ReCodEx is specifically designed to support such evaluation pipeline.
