Python scripts to connect Canvas submissions to nbgrader

1. Download Jupyter notebooks from Canvas.
2. Move notebooks into a folder named submissions/{assignment_name}. The assignment name must match the name in nbgrader.
3. Run python canvas2nbgrader.py. The result copies submissions to the submitted folder using student Canvas IDs.
4. Run nbgrader autograde {assignment_name} to grade notebooks.
5. Run nbgrader export to update the grades.csv file.
6. Export and save Canvas gradebook as grades/upload.csv.
7. Run python nbgrader2canvas.py. The result produces the grades file for the assignment to upload to Canvas and a subfolder in the returned folder containing the graded notebooks (with the original Canvas filenames) to then zip and upload to Canvas.
