Really simple SCORM AS3 wrapper example

Here’s a simple example of how the SCORM AS3 class can be utilized. (This example uses SCORM 2004 calls.)

import pipwerks.SCORM;
import flash.external.ExternalInterface;

//Declare variables
var success:Boolean = false,
    completion_status:String;

//Initialize a new SCORM object!
var scorm:SCORM = new SCORM();

//Initialize SCORM connection
success = scorm.connect();

//If connection attempt was successful
if(success){
    
    //Get completion status
    completion_status = scorm.get("cmi.completion_status");
        
    //If course has already been completed
    if(completion_status == "passed" || completion_status == "completed"){
        
        //Disconnect from the LMS.
        scorm.disconnect();
        
    } else {
        
        //Set course status to incomplete
        success = scorm.set("cmi.completion_status", "incomplete");

        if(success){ 
            success = scorm.disconnect();
        } else {
            serverUnresponsive();
        }
      
    }        

} else {
    serverUnresponsive();
}

function serverUnresponsive():void {
    var msg:String = "Sorry, can't connect to server. Please try again later.";
    trace(msg);
    ExternalInterface.call("alert", msg);
}Code language: ActionScript (actionscript)

Here’s a slightly more fleshed out example. (This example uses SCORM 2004 calls.)

import pipwerks.SCORM;
import flash.external.ExternalInterface;

//Declare variables
var success:Boolean = false,
    completion_status:String,
    learner_name:String,
    bookmark:String;

//Initialize a new SCORM object!
var scorm:SCORM = new SCORM();

//Initialize SCORM connection
success = scorm.connect();

//If connection attempt was successful
if(success){
    
    //Get completion status
    completion_status = scorm.get("cmi.completion_status");
        
    //If course has already been completed
    if(completion_status == "passed" || completion_status == "completed"){
        
        //Disconnect from the LMS.
        scorm.disconnect();
        
    } else {
        
        //Set course status to incomplete
        success = scorm.set("cmi.completion_status", "incomplete");

        // --- Set other SCORM settings as needed -----
        if(success){ success = scorm.set("cmi.score.min", "0"); }
        if(success){ success = scorm.set("cmi.score.max", "100"); }
        if(success){
            
            scorm.save();
        
        } else {
            
            serverUnresponsive();
            
        }
        
        //You can get data from LMS using the following syntax
        learner_name = scorm.get("cmi.learner_name");
        bookmark = scorm.get("cmi.location");
        
        if(bookmark != null && bookmark != ""){
            
            //Use bookmark
        
        } else {
            
            //Start from beginning
            success = scorm.set("cmi.location", "page1");
            
            if(success){
                scorm.save();
            } else {
                serverUnresponsive();
            }
            
        }
        
        //Do other course stuff as needed...
        
        //End course
        var score:int = 80;
        finishCourse(score);
        
    }        

} else {
    
    serverUnresponsive();
    
}

function finishCourse(score:int):void {
    
    //Score must be converted to a string before it can be passed to LMS
    var success:Boolean = scorm.set("cmi.score.raw", String(score) );
    
    if(success){ success = scorm.set("cmi.completion_status", "completed"); }
    
    if(success){ 
        success = scorm.disconnect();
    } else {
        serverUnresponsive();
    }
    
}

function serverUnresponsive():void {
    var msg:String = "Sorry, can't connect to server. Please try again later.";
    trace(msg);
    ExternalInterface.call("alert", msg);
}Code language: ActionScript (actionscript)
