Added a new
apiGetBatchfunction toCanvasApi.php. It allows you to enter an array of URLs that need to be fetched and uses thecurl_multi_*functions to create and watch all the handles and return once they've all gotten responses.I've applied it to the
updateCourseContentfunction inCanvasLms.phpfor pulling all the Page content from Canvas. On my own course that has 43 pages that need to be fetched, running a Full Course Rescan gave me the following times (in seconds):Obviously, the number and size of course Pages may drastically change your personal results.
I've kept all the testing code (including timers and readout) and both fetch methods so you can test it on different courses yourself. Just change the
$asyncFetch = true;to false in theupdateCourseContentfunction.
