The easiest activity has just to write a single entry in the journal with “standard” metadata and a screen capture. In Python, nothing has to be written to create this entry. I guess that it’s why the read_file and write_file has been written. So I think we must provide the same feature in the HTML DataStore API instead of forcing to create a new entry each time.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US> <span style='color:#1F497D'><o:p></o:p></span></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US style='color:#1F497D'>> </span><span lang=EN-US>datastore.find(query, properties, onFound);<o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US> <o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US style='color:#1F497D'>> </span><span lang=EN-US>I have no idea what query/properties contains but I suppose it's documented somewhere :)<span style='color:#1F497D'><o:p></o:p></span></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>Yes here :-) [1] <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>query is for full-text search, properties is for filter search.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'><span lang=EN-US style='color:#1F497D'>></span><span lang=EN-US> Can you explain the use case for these?<span style='color:#1F497D'><o:p></o:p></span></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>To write an activity like SugarCommander [2].<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'> Lionel.<o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US> </span><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>[1] <a href="http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Development_Team/Low-level_Activity_API#Querying">http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Development_Team/Low-level_Activity_API#Querying</a> <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>[2] <a href="http://activities.sugarlabs.org/fr/sugar/addon/4291">http://activities.sugarlabs.org/fr/sugar/addon/4291</a> <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p></div></div></div></div></div></body></html>
