An interface that uses the Django ORM StudentModule as a backend.
A note on the format of state storage:
The state for an xblock is stored as a serialized JSON dictionary. The model
field that it is stored in can also take on a value of ``None``. To preserve
existing analytic uses, we will preserve the following semantics:
A state of ``None`` means that the user hasn't ever looked at the xblock.
A state of ``"{}"`` means that the XBlock has at some point stored state for
the current user, but that that state has been deleted.
Otherwise, the dictionary contains all data stored for the user.
None of these conditions should violate the semantics imposed by
XBlockUserStateClient (for instance, once all fields have been deleted from
an XBlock for a user, the state will be listed as ``None`` by :meth:`get_history`,
even though the actual stored state in the database will be ``"{}"``).
