Moodle

Moodle is the world's most widely used open-source Learning Management System (LMS), used by universities and schools globally.

Dependencies

  • MySQL - Database for storing courses, users, and grades

Configuration

Key settings in config.yaml:

  • domain - Where Moodle will be accessible
  • storage - Persistent volume size (default: 2Gi)
  • db.name - Database name (default: moodle)

First-Time Setup

  1. Add and deploy the app:

    wild app add moodle
    wild app deploy moodle
    
  2. Moodle runs its installer automatically on first start. Log in with:

    • Username: admin
    • Password: value of adminPassword in your secrets.yaml
  3. Complete the site setup wizard (site name, contact email, etc.) that appears after first login.

Notes

  • First startup takes several minutes as Moodle runs all database migrations
  • SMTP can be configured after login under Site administration → Server → Email → Outgoing mail configuration
  • Moodle has a large plugin ecosystem — plugins can be installed via Site administration → Plugins → Install plugins
  • Increase resource limits if running a large instance with many concurrent users
