The record

Purpose: Ralph is a learning analytics toolbox available as an LRS HTTP API server, a command-line interface, and a library.
xAPI support: Ralph follows xAPI specification version 1.0.3 and does not currently support xAPI 2.0.
Data backends: Ralph LRS supports Elasticsearch, MongoDB, and ClickHouse databases.
Other integrations: The library documents backends for OVH Log Data Platform, OpenStack Swift, Amazon S3, filesystems, other LRS systems, and WebSockets.
Authentication: The API server supports HTTP Basic authentication and OpenID Connect on top of OAuth 2.0, and either or both can be enabled.
Access controls: Ralph can restrict statement access by authority and limit endpoints or functionality with user scopes; both controls are disabled by default.
Statement forwarding: The LRS can forward received xAPI statements to other LRS servers, with configurable retries and timeouts.
Monitoring: Ralph provides Sentry integration to monitor its LRS server and CLI.
Data conversion: The CLI can convert OpenEdX events to xAPI statements, but conversion is supported only for a set of OpenEdX events.
Known API gaps: The API documentation marks statement attachments, several filters, and some response formats as not implemented.
Distribution and license: Ralph is distributed as a Python package and Docker image and is released under the MIT License.
Intended audience: The project describes itself as community-driven and invites people to contribute questions, design feedback, issues, and code changes.
