Hi, Jatin<br>
<br>
The most important thing to keep in mind is that ASLO manages a
library of independent programs (Sugar activities). These are
updated asynchronously from the Sugar releases. Sugar is in
desperate need of build management - as best I can tell at the
moment we have none. However, this problem does not directly apply
to the activities. <br>
<br>
The 'build' process for the activities is accomplished by 'python
setup.py dist_xo' executed in the bundle root. The generated xo file
is then 'deployed' to the appropriate directory in
<a href="http://download.sugarlabs.org" target="_blank">download.sugarlabs.org</a> as the latest version. <br>
<br>
<br>
Since development time in GSOC is limited, it is critical to define
a doable project. In my experience proposals set unachievable
expectations and result in partially complete and disappointing
results. <br>
<br>
<span id="m_3726298898718276124docs-internal-guid-193d56a3-2cc3-cf4b-5d34-cb59074d105d">Improve

Maintain ASLO</span> - I am proposing that this project build a
replacement for ASLO which can be used immediately offline by school
servers. During the GSOC period, the community should be expected to
judge whether the development forms a base for future replacement of
ASLO. <br>
<span id="m_3726298898718276124docs-internal-guid-193d56a3-2cc4-41b7-f40b-f4fc11973a5e">

<p><span id="m_3726298898718276124docs-internal-guid-193d56a3-2cc4-41b7-f40b-f4fc11973a5e"><span id="m_3726298898718276124docs-internal-guid-193d56a3-2cc4-8575-861e-4acc7fc20da8">Add

distraction. How can a program know the interests and needs of a
user to provide a useful recommendation? I also think the Review
system is a distraction. The problem is that no reviews come from
actual users of the activities but are similar to the sponsored
reviews at Amazon. A better approach would be to strengthen the
tags/collections/category system. <br>
</p>
<p><span id="m_3726298898718276124docs-internal-guid-193d56a3-2cc4-f548-de81-7ce94367e330">Improve
Transactional emails</span> - I think this is also a
distraction. The user communication is clicks on links. The
response is public. <br>
</p>
So I would propose something like:<br>
<br>
- develop a new ASLO as <a href="http://activities3.sugarlabs.org" target="_blank">activities3.sugarlabs.org</a> based on
Django (to this end I can supply my current minimal working
version).<br>
<br>
- the new version assume the master source repository is
github and that bundles are installed and updated via setup.py from
github<br>
(the build and deployment methodologies). This means the
new system does not need to implement the Developer Hub. <br>
<br>
- the core activities (Journal, Record, Log, Terminal,
Write, Jukebox, Image Viewer, Browse, and Read) be excluded from
ASLO and handled through the Sugar release cycle).
These activities are installed in a Sugar release and the ability to
erase them is disabled. <br>
<br>
- for simplicity, the initial version could be limited to
two templates: an index page showing icons and names of activities
and a page per activity with the download button.<br>
<br>
- There should be a simple and transparent 'CRUD' capability
for the metadata - perhaps in the first commit based on Django's
admin feature. I think the first commit db could consist of a single
table: one row per activity. <br>
<br>
- Do whatever can be done to improve the attractiveness of
the site.<br>
<br>
- Do not base development on emulation of any other project:
Mozilla add-ons or Play Store or .... Certainly the project can and
should be take inspiration from any source. However,
it will be enough to attempt to provide the essential current
functionality of ASLO. <br>
<br>
What I visualize is the project be installed on github at the point
of a first working commit. The project could then be installed as
<a href="http://activities3.sugarlabs.org" target="_blank">activities3.sugarlabs.org</a> for community testing and advice.
Development would be using git locally using localhost or a local
server. Commits would be pushed to GitHub at appropriate points in
the development and the resulting version would then be used to
update the online version. The project would work with the current
<a href="http://download.sugarlabs.org" target="_blank">download.sugarlabs.org</a> as the source of bundles. (therefore, keeping
the addition of activities to GitHub as a separate project). <br>
<br>
Keep in mind, I am speaking for myself. While, if your project were
selected, I would probably be a mentor - this gives me no special
voice in the selection. Normally we have several proposals for each
available slot and many worthy proposals are not selected. <br><span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888">

<div text="#000000" bgcolor="#FFFFFF"> Hi, Jatin<br>
<br>
The ASLO site is in desparate need of work. At the moment
I am trying to find out which of the activities actually
work in the current release of Sugar. The library
currently has about 600 activities. A Sugar activity is
intended to be self-contained (any dependencies not
satisfied by Sugar are to be incorporated in the bundle).
Naturally, an activity should work on any Sugar. However,
this situation is becoming very complicated. First, two of
the XO models (1 and 1.5) have Intel 32 bit architecture
processors. The others (1.75 and 4) have Arm processors.
Some of the activities incorporate binary modules which
limit their use. The Sugar community wishes to support
Sugar on a range of platforms. For mobile devices, Lionel
Laske is developing Sugarizer. While traditional
activities were implemented in Python (with some binary
exceptions using Java or C), Sugarizer activities are
written in Javascript (HTML5 and CSS). Naturally a trend
in modern computers is to 64 bit architecture (AMD 64).<br>
<br>
The website itself is implemented in PhP and is patterned
after the Mozilla addons site. It has a repository of
activity bundles (.xo files) which is visible at <a class="m_3726298898718276124m_-7838966876582265289moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://download.sugarlabs.org" target="_blank"></a><a class="m_3726298898718276124moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://download.sugarlabs.org" target="_blank">http://download.sugarlabs.org</a>.
Each activity has an 'add-on' id (4000-4999 at the
moment). Versions of activities are numbered beginning
with 1 and incrementing by 1 with subsequent versions. So
the directories in ASLO contain bundles for multiple
bundles with the highest numbered version considered the
latest. In addition to the bundle, the site contains
metadata which is displayed in the pages devoted to an
activity. I suspect this metadata is stored in a database
but I haven't investigated to find out the details. <br>
<br>
In the meantime, Sugar Labs has decided to create a
repository for activities in github. The reasoning appears
to be that this will make it easier for the community to
undertake ongoing development and maintenance of these
activities. Currently, the ASLO site has a 'developer hub'
which allows registered users to add or update their own
activities. This function will need defined and moved to
github. <br>
<br>
How this will be done is a mystery to me. Logically, each
of the versions of an activity should be commited in git
so that a developer (or maintainer) can the changes made
over time. Also, some method is needed to manage over 600
additional repositories in the Sugar Labs github. <br>
<br>
If you look at the ASLO site, it seems clear that the page
needs to specify more than which versions of Sugar are
supported. It will need to specify which models of the XO
are supported. It will also need to mention any
restrictions on architecture or peripherals needed for the
users system (microphone, camera, network connection -
wired or wireless, and so on). <br>
<br>
Over time, Sugar has dropped many packages which were
ordinarily included. This has rendered many of the
activities currently unusable. For example, Sugar switched
from a browser based on hulahop to one based on WebKit.
Some effort will be needed to update activities using
hulahop to use WebKit. Sugar Labs hopes that activities
will be ported to GTK3 (called sugar3) from the original
GTK (sugar). If this can be accomplished, the size and
complexity of Sugar can be significantly reduced. <br>
<br>
I hope you will consider this challenging and not
discouraging.<br>
<br>
Just for further background. Many deployments I work with
have no access to the internet. To provide an alternative,
I support a school server which XO users can access by
wifi in the classroom. My hope is to provide a version of
ASLO on the school server which will give these users the
ability to install any of the activities they choose and
for which their XO has storage capacity. That capability
exists now (and has for some years). However, the
selection is basically a list of activities by name and
does not provide the metadata descriptions found on the
ASLO pages. My plan is to use Django (which enables code
to be in Python and not PhP). The school server already
provides sqllite, mariadb, and postgresql so db support is
readily available. Django is designed to support fusion -
creating web pages dynamically based on information from a
db and so should match the requirement. <br>

<br>
There are two major elements to Sugar. The
desktop interface - Sugar and the
activities. ASLO is a library of these
activities. Build only applies to Sugar. <br>
<br>
For a non-XO version of Sugar, there are
two easy choices: SOAS and Sugar on
Ubuntu. For Ubuntu, install 14.04 or more
recent version (I am using 16.04) and
execute sudo apt-get install sucrose. For
SOAS, download the image and dd it to a
usb stick. It works as a livecd. <br>
<br>
Another alternative is to build the
'development environment'. This
environment is intended for developers who
are working directly on PRs for Sugar
modules. <br>
<br>
In deploying Sugar, the only fully
supported platform is the XO. The Ubuntu
Sugar appears not to connect to networks
and omits some of the essential
activities. These are the essential eight:
Browse, Record, Jukebox, Terminal, Log,
Write, Read, and Image Viewer. Several of
these such as Record provide access to
hardware features of the platform such as
the camera and microphone. Naturally,
these are more difficult to support on
general platforms. <br>
<br>
There are two programming environments for
Sugar activities: Python and Javascript.
HelloWorld and HelloWeb are simple
examples of activities in Python and
Javascript, respectively. There is an
excellent text available for download
online: <br>

Hi,
I have few questions about how ASLO is actually build and deployed in
production. Build process is carried out by using Fabfile, I tried using
it and was not successful in building the sphinx ( since version used is
0.9.9.rc2 and current series is 2.x).

I am using Arch Linux and have installed all the necessary dependencies for
development including mysql and postgres development libraries along with
common development libraries. If anyone can point on how to successfully
build the project that would help a lot.
Some thread points out upgrading to new version of Sphinx but I wanted to
mirror the current instance.
Also project mentions something about Remora
<a class="m_3726298898718276124m_-7838966876582265289gmail-m_-7717984833789258641moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://wiki.mozilla.org/Update:Remora" target="_blank">https://wiki.mozilla.org/Updat<wbr>e:Remora</a> and wiki says it's no longer
maintained.
It quotes

<pre>Also wanted to know more about how ASLO is deployed in production. What
techniques are used ? What are the pain points that need to be addressed
and tips on how to get started with it. If anyone is familiar with ASLO or
a long time maintainer, can they point out on how to reproduce a successful
build of ASLO (a documentation on how to run would be awesome)
Thanks,
Jatin Dhankhar
