In this example, we will create a new domain entity called Student Transcript. This entity will be exposed in Ed-Fi ODS / API through a new API resource called studentTranscripts. 

Before you begin:

• This example uses MetaEd to generate extended artifacts and documentation. MetaEd is a free tool developed by the Ed-Fi Alliance, and is the recommended way to add new fields to the Ed-Fi ODS / API. You should download and install MetaEd before beginning. If you prefer to generate extended artifacts manually instead of using MetaEd, steps are listed in Appendix A of this page.
• This example assumes knowledge of the basic concepts described in the How To: Extend the ODS / API - Student Transportation Example. If you're new to the Ed-Fi technology stack, or if you haven't used MetaEd before, then we suggest you run through that example first. 
• This example assumes that the Ed-Fi ODS / API has been successfully downloaded and is running in a local development environment per the instructions in the Getting Started documentation.
• Back up any existing code or scripts, either in source control or on your file system. This is important if you or your team have performed these steps before. The MetaEd deployment feature replaces existing files, some of which may contain hand-crafted customizations (e.g., to define an authorization strategy).

The steps can be summarized as:

Each step is outlined in detail, below. 

Step 1. Design Your Extension

In a real project, you would take the preliminary step of designing your extension, and analyzing how your needs map to the Ed-Fi ODS / API data model. We'll propose a design.

This example will create a new Student Transcript entity, which will carry information about where students enroll in college after graduation, a new element indicating whether graduates were part of a special education program, and some additional information about whether a transmitted record is an official or unofficial submission.

Based on our needs, we require a new entity (to contain information about postsecondary institutions) and we need to add some elements to existing entities. The following is a diagram is a sketch showing the additional entity and the new elements we're bolting on to existing Ed-Fi entities.

You'll notice that a few elements are shown with a type of "descriptor." The Ed-Fi Descriptor is analogous to an enumeration. It's an Ed-Fi-specific design pattern that allows for enumeration-like definition and validation within an operational context, but may vary between contexts. We'll see more about how these are implemented below.

This example is somewhat complex, but illustrates most of the advanced concepts required to extend the Ed-Fi ODS / API. Let's continue with the mechanics.

Step 2. Author Your Extension Using MetaEd

In this step, we'll create a new project in MetaEd, and author our new entity. You do need to download and install MetaEd to do this step. Do that now if you haven't already.

Step 2a. Set or Confirm MetaEd Target Version

MetaEd allows you to target different versions of the Ed-Fi technology stack and data model. Confirm that your MetaEd IDE is targeting v7v6.0 1 by following the instructions in the Version Targeting documentation for the MetaEd IDE. 

The desired model for the latest ODS / API is "ed-fi-model-4.0a".

Step 2b. Create a New Extension Project

Create a new extension by following the steps in MetaEd IDE - Creating and Maintaining Your Extension. In this example our extension is in a folder called "StudentTranscript"

Anchor
MetaEd JSON MetaEd JSON

Step 2c. Update the package.json File

Open the package.json file by double-clicking on the file in the tree view to the left and provide an appropriate name for your project. In this case we will call it "SampleStudentTranscript".

Click "Save" under the "File" menu or press Ctrl + S to save your changes.

Step 2d. Add MetaEd Source Files to Your Project

We're going to add seven new .metaed source files to the project we just created. You'll recall that MetaEd files are required to be organized into subfolders named after their entity type. The core ed-fi-model project provides examples of subfolder naming.

2d.1. Add Domain Entities.

Now we'll add two MetaEd source files to the DomainEntity folder. Right-click on the folder DomainEntity, and select New File.

Name the new file PostSecondaryOrganization.metaed to match the name of the new entity to be created.

Note the new file appears in the tree view to the left. Double-click on the file in the tree view to open it. Type or copy and paste the code listing below into your MetaEd file:

Note that errors will be listed in the linter panel until the referenced Descriptors are created in a future step.

Domain Entity PostSecondaryOrganization
    documentation "PostSecondaryOrganization"
    shared string EdFi.NameOfInstitution
        documentation "The name of the institution."
        is part of identity
    descriptor InstitutionLevel
        documentation "The level of the institution."
        is required
    descriptor InstitutionControl
        documentation "The type of control of the institution (i.e., public or private)."
        is required
    bool AcceptanceIndicator
        documentation "An indication of acceptance."
        is required

We'll now create a Domain Entity source file, called StudentAcademicRecordExtension, to add our new elements to the existing Student Academic Record entity. Note that we can extend an existing entity using the additions keyword (line 1 in the example below).

Domain Entity EdFi.StudentAcademicRecord additions
    domain entity PostSecondaryOrganization
        documentation "A reference to the postsecondary organization."
        is optional
    descriptor SubmissionCertification
        documentation "The type of submission certification."
        is optional
    common extension EdFi.ClassRanking
        documentation "Class Ranking Extension"
        is optional

2d.2. In this step, we'll extend the Class Ranking entity to add our new Special Education Graduation Status element. The steps are generally the same as the ones you used to add the domain entities above.

Right-Click on the Common folder, select New File. Name your new file ClassRankingExtension.metaed.

Similar to how you extended the Student Academic Record domain entity above, you'll extend the Class Ranking entity with the keyword additions. Replace the template text in your new Common source file with the following code.

Common EdFi.ClassRanking additions
    descriptor SpecialEducationGraduationStatus
        documentation "The graduation status for special education."
        is required

2d.3. In this step, we'll add the new Ed-Fi Descriptor entities.

If you're new to Ed-Fi technology, it's worth understanding the Ed-Fi Descriptor pattern because it occurs throughout the model. In essence, Descriptors provide states, districts, vendors, and other platform hosts with the flexibility to use their own enumerations and code sets. A Descriptor is consistent within an operational context such as a single district, but may be different in another operational context.

Right-click on the Descriptor folder, select New File. We'll be adding four Descriptor files in total. Name your first file InstitutionControl.metaed.

Replace the template text in your new Descriptor source file with the following code.

Descriptor InstitutionControl
    documentation "The type of control for an institution (e.g., public or private)."

Voilà! Almost done. Follow the steps above and add the remaining three Descriptors.

Add an InstitutionLevel.metaed file.

Descriptor InstitutionLevel
    documentation "The typical level of postsecondary degree offered by the institute."

Add a SpecialEducationGraduationStatus.metaed file.

Descriptor SpecialEducationGraduationStatus
    documentation "The graduation status for special education."

Add a SubmissionCertification.metaed file.

Descriptor SubmissionCertification
    documentation "The type of submission certification."

2d.4. In this step, we'll add the new Interchange file.

If you want to bulk load this extension, you need to create an interchange file. 

Right-click on the Interchange folder, select New File. Name your file StudentTranscript.metaed. Replace the template text in your new Interchange source file with the following code.

Interchange EdFi.StudentTranscript additions
  domain entity PostSecondaryOrganization

At this point, your project in the MetaEd IDE should look like the following:

Step 3. Generate Extended Technical Artifacts Using MetaEd

In this step, we'll build our new MetaEd project. This is fairly straightforward.

Step 3a. Build Your Project

Click Build in the VS Code menu to generate artifacts.

Artifacts build successfully.

Step 3b. View MetaEd Output

You can expand the project in the tree view and click "MetaEdOutput" to explore generated artifacts. The artifacts include technical output such as SQL scripts and XSD used by the code generation, but also updated documentation such as data dictionaries that add your extension definitions to the ODS / API documentation.

We'll look at how to use this MetaEd output in your code below. First, we'll need to set up our extension project in Visual Studio.

Step 4. Create Extension Project in ODS / API Solution

This step will create the C# Extension files necessary to build your extended solution. This step assumes you've successfully downloaded and can run the ODS / API in a local development environment per the instructions in the Getting Started documentation. Do that now if you haven't already.

Step 4a. Set Up the C# Project Template

Visual Studio Project Templates can be installed by following steps in Project Templates Installation section of this documentation.

Step 4b. Create new Extension Project

4b.1. To add a project to your Ed-Fi-Ods Visual Studio Solution, right-click on the Ed-Fi Extensions Folder. Select Add > New Project.

4b.2. Search and select the Ed-Fi API Extensions Project Template option and Click Next.

 In the Project Name field, enter EdFi.Ods.Extensions.SampleStudentTranscript and click Create. 

Step 4c. Rename the "Marker" Interface file

4c.1. Right-click on the Marker_EdFi_Ods_Extensions_ExtensionName.cs file in newly created EdFi.Ods.Extensions.SampleStudentTranscript project and Rename the file to Marker_EdFi_Ods_Extensions_SampleStudentTranscript.cs.

4c.2. When prompted choose to rename all references to the code element Marker_EdFi_Ods_Extensions_ExtensionName.

Step 4d. Integrate Extension into the Solution

In this step, we'll integrate the extension into the solution.

4d.1. Locate the EdFi.Ods.WebApi project, within the "Entry Points" folder. Right-click, select Add > Project Reference..., then select the EdFi.Ods.Extensions.SampleStudentTranscript project.

4d.2. Locate any profile projects in the solution. Right-click, select Add > Project Reference..., then select the EdFi.Ods.Extensions.SampleStudentTranscript project. This step is needed only if any of the Profile resources in the Profiles.xml document are extended, or extension entities are being constrained by a particular Profile. 

Step 5. Deploy your Extended Artifacts to the ODS / API Solution

In this step, we'll use the MetaEd "Deploy" feature and integrate the files you've generated with the ODS / API Solution. The MetaEd IDE can deploy the generated artifacts necessary for an ODS / API build of an extension project. These include the generated SQL, generated XSD, and other material.

You can easily configure the MetaEd IDE to copy the generated files to the correct locations for the ODS / API project.

Step 5a. Confirm MetaEd Deployment Settings

Ensure that your Ed-Fi ODS / API source directory is set properly in the MetaEd Extension settings. In VS Code open Settings Ctrl+, and switch to the Workspace tab, find the MetaEd extension and update the "Ods Api Deployment Directory" to point to the folder that contains the Ed-Fi-ODS and Ed-Fi-ODS-Implementation folders.

Step 5b. Deploy Your Extended Artifacts

Deploy by clicking Deploy on the VSCode menu

This will run a new build of all artifacts, and the artifacts required for your Extended ODS / API project will be copied over to the correct locations.

For instructions on how to perform the steps manually, see Appendix A, below.

Step 6. Configure Security

The Ed-Fi ODS / API is secure by default. One implication of this design principle is that new entities and elements may not be accessed until an authorization strategy is applied. This prevents accidental release of confidential information, but does require active steps on the part of system developers to enable access to Extensions.

PostSecondaryOrganization has no relationship to people or education organizations and therefore has no authorization strategy that can be applied to it. In effect, it is a standalone table and will need an authorization strategy of "NoFurtherAuthorizationRequired" for API requests to be made against it. If security is desired, another authorization strategy could be implemented to handle this entity. 

To enable NoFurtherAuthorizationRequired, first create a security SQL script called 0001-PostSecondaryOrganization_No_Further_Auth_Required.sql and place it in the Ed-Fi-ODS-Implementation\Application\EdFi.Ods.Extensions.SampleStudentTranscript\Artifacts\MsSql\Data\Security folder (Create 'Security' folder if it does not exist). Copy the contents of the following SQL DML script into the newly created file and save.

            AND csrca.ClaimSetId = c.ClaimSetId
                 AND csrca.ResourceClaimId = r.ResourceClaimId
        )

Preventing Resource Name Conflicts

With MetaEd 2+, it is possible to create extension resources that use the same name as an Ed-Fi standard resource. The authorization metadata supports this through a change in behavior so it no longer uses just the resource name to identify the resource, but instead uses the ClaimName. To prevent possible naming conflicts, the claim name's URI value should include the schema representation, using the following format:

http://ed-fi.org/ods/identity/claims/{schema}/{resourceName}

The URI representation of the schema name should be derived by splitting the terms in the name of the extension, inserting hyphens and converting to lower case. For example, "SampleStudentTranscript" would be separated into "Sample", "Student" and "Transcript" and then combined with hyphens and converted to lower case as "sample-student-transcript".

The resource name should be the camel-cased (also known as "medial capitals"), singularized name of the resource (e.g., "postSecondaryOrganization" not "PostSecondaryOrganization" or "postSecondaryOrganizations").

Note that in 0001-PostSecondaryOrganization_No_Further_Auth_Required.sql script above, the resulting ClaimName value is "http://ed-fi.org/ods/identity/claims/sample-student-transcript/postSecondaryOrganization".

Step 7. Run Code Generation and Verify Changes 

Save all modified files, close Ed-Fi-ODS.sln, and re-run the code generation steps outlined in the Getting Started Guide (i.e., from a PowerShell prompt run Initialize-PowershellForDevelopment.ps script, followed by the initdev command). Then, run the application and view the Ed-Fi ODS / API in the Swagger UI.

The new postSecondaryOrganizations API resource should be visible, as well as the postSecondaryOrganizationReference in the studentAcademicRecord resource.

Next Steps & Further Information

Congratulations, you've successfully extended an instance of the Ed-Fi ODS / API.

The Ed-Fi Extension in this example is fairly simple. It's a good place to start, but most enterprise users have more complicated needs. The MetaEd Cookbook documentation provides excellent additional examples of common scenarios, from the simple to very complex.

Appendix A: Adding Manually Created Extensions

Step 1. Set Up the C# Project Template

Visual Studio Project Templates can be installed by following steps in Project Templates Installation section of this documentation.

Step 2. Create new Extension Project

2.1. To add a project to your Ed-Fi-Ods Visual Studio Solution, right-click on the Ed-Fi Extensions Folder. Select Add > New Project.

2.2. Search and select the Ed-Fi API Extensions Project Template option and click Next. 

In the Project Name field, enter EdFi.Ods.Extensions.SampleStudentTranscript and click Create.

Step 3. Rename the "Marker" Interface File

3.1. Right-click on the Marker_EdFi_Ods_Extensions_ExtensionName.cs file in newly created EdFi.Ods.Extensions.SampleStudentTranscript project and Rename the file to Marker_EdFi_Ods_Extensions_SampleStudentTranscript.cs.

3.2. When prompted choose to rename all references to the code element Marker_EdFi_Ods_Extensions_ExtensionName.

Step 4. Integrate Extension into the Solution

In this step, we'll integrate the extension into the solution.

4.1. Locate the EdFi.Ods.WebApi project, within the "Entry Points" folder. Right-click, select Add > Reference..., then select the EdFi.Ods.Extensions.SampleStudentTranscript project.

4.2. Locate any profile projects in the solution. Right-click, select Add > Project Reference..., then select the EdFi.Ods.Extensions.SampleStudentTranscript project. This step is needed only if any of the Profile resources in the Profiles.xml document are extended, or extension entities are being constrained by a particular Profile. 

Step 5. Add Extension Metadata

If you chose to generate Extension artifacts manually, copy them to Artifacts folder of Extension project you created in the previous step. For the purpose of this example we can use MetaEd Generated Extension Artifacts from the Download section.

Open command prompt and navigate to root of the ODS / API repository on your local drive. This is the folder that contains both Ed-Fi-ODS and Ed-Fi-ODS-Implementation repositories. Run the following copy commands:

xcopy /y "Ed-Fi-ODS\Samples\Extensions\StudentTranscript\StudentTranscriptMetaEd\MetaEdOutput\SampleStudentTranscript\Database\SQLServer\ODS\Structure" "Ed-Fi-ODS-Implementation\Application\EdFi.Ods.Extensions.SampleStudentTranscript\Artifacts\MsSql\Structure\Ods\*"

xcopy /y "Ed-Fi-ODS\Samples\Extensions\StudentTranscript\StudentTranscriptMetaEd\MetaEdOutput\SampleStudentTranscript\Database\PostgreSQL\ODS\Structure" "Ed-Fi-ODS-Implementation\Application\EdFi.Ods.Extensions.SampleStudentTranscript\Artifacts\PgSql\Structure\Ods\*"
  
xcopy /y "Ed-Fi-ODS\Samples\Extensions\StudentTranscript\StudentTranscriptMetaEd\MetaEdOutput\SampleStudentTranscript\ApiMetadata" "Ed-Fi-ODS-Implementation\Application\EdFi.Ods.Extensions.SampleStudentTranscript\Artifacts\Metadata\*"
  
xcopy /y "Ed-Fi-ODS\Samples\Extensions\StudentTranscript\StudentTranscriptMetaEd\MetaEdOutput\SampleStudentTranscript\XSD" "Ed-Fi-ODS-Implementation\Application\EdFi.Ods.Extensions.SampleStudentTranscript\Artifacts\Schemas\*"
  
xcopy /y "Ed-Fi-ODS\Samples\Extensions\StudentTranscript\StudentTranscriptMetaEd\MetaEdOutput\SampleStudentTranscript\Interchange" "Ed-Fi-ODS-Implementation\Application\EdFi.Ods.Extensions.SampleStudentTranscript\Artifacts\Schemas\*"

Step 6. Configure Security

The Ed-Fi ODS / API is secure by default. One implication of this design principle is that new entities and elements may not be accessed until an authorization strategy is applied. This prevents accidental release of confidential information, but does require active steps on the part of system developers to enable access to Extensions.

PostSecondaryOrganization has no relationship to people or education organizations and therefore has no authorization strategy that can be applied to it. It is in effect a standalone table and will need an authorization strategy of "NoFurtherAuthorizationRequired" for API requests to be made against it. If security is desired, another authorization strategy could be implemented to handle this entity.

To enable NoFurtherAuthorizationRequired, first create a security SQL script called 0001-PostSecondaryOrganization_No_Further_Auth_Required.sql and place it in the C:\Ed-Fi-ODS-Implementation\Artifacts\MsSql\Data\Security folder (Create 'Security' folder if it does not exist). Copy the contents of the following SQL DML script into the newly created file and save.
