One is to download helloworld-6.xo. <br> It is actually a zip file and so can be unzipped.<br> <br> The pertinent information is given in the activity.info file. Change all <br> references to HelloWorld to your name for the activity.<br> <br> A Sugar activity wants an svg icon to show on the Home view. So <br> substitute your icon for the one in the activity folder.<br> <br> The program is in directory activity.py as a python class. Change the <br> class name to match the exec line in activity.info.<br> <br> Usually what I do is make a bundle with python setup.py dist_xo (reset <br> version in activity.info to 1 first). This bundle can be installed by<br> sugar-install-bundle hello-6.xo (substitute name of your bundle - e.g. <br> spell-1.xo).<br> <br> Now launching the activity should show hello world to show that your <br> changes have created a working activity.<br> <br> Now all that should be needed is to modify the activity to invoke your <br> code. Note that you need much of the existing code to set up the Sugar <br> toolbar. So I generally modify the code at the point that it provides a <br> Gtk.Label('Hello World').<br> <br> The other approach is to use pippy.py. Copy and paste your code into the <br> text area. Now execute the code with pippy run to verify that it is <br> working there.<br> Then you can export as a bundle (activity toolbar).<br> <br> I fully endorse Sebastian's recommendation of James Simmons text. This <br> will help with any problems you may encounter.<br> <br> Tony<br> <br> On 03/08/2017 04:53 AM, Sebastian Silva wrote:<br> ><br> > On 07/03/17 15:47, Sebastian Silva wrote:<br> >> Also, don't miss the excellent "Make Your Own Sugar Activities" by<br> >> James Simmons:<br> >><br> >> <a href="http://write.flossmanuals.net/make-your-own-sugar-activities/introduction/" id="LPlnk39632" previewremoved="true"> http://write.flossmanuals.net/make-your-own-sugar-activities/introduction/</a><br> >><br> > specifically the chapter:<br> ><br> > <a href="http://write.flossmanuals.net/make-your-own-sugar-activities/making-activities-using-pygame/" id="LPlnk195671" previewremoved="true"> http://write.flossmanuals.net/make-your-own-sugar-activities/making-activities-using-pygame/</a><br> > _______________________________________________<br> > Sugar-devel mailing list<br> > Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org<br> > <a href="http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel" id="LPlnk473274" previewremoved="true"> http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel</a><br> <br> _______________________________________________<br> Sugar-devel mailing list<br> Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org<br> <a href="http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel" id="LPlnk738328" previewremoved="true">http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel</a> <div id="LPBorder_GT_14889894579880.2511009245227025" style="margin-bottom: 20px; overflow: auto; width: 100%; text-indent: 0px;"> <table id="LPContainer_14889894579850.9508533999350497" cellspacing="0" style="width: 90%; position: relative; overflow: auto; padding-top: 20px; padding-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 20px; border-top-width: 1px; border-top-style: dotted; border-top-color: rgb(200, 200, 200); border-bottom-width: 1px; border-bottom-style: dotted; border-bottom-color: rgb(200, 200, 200); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"> <tbody> <tr valign="top" style="border-spacing: 0px;"> <td id="TextCell_14889894579860.5210150251467367" colspan="2" style="vertical-align: top; position: relative; padding: 0px; display: table-cell;"> <div id="LPRemovePreviewContainer_14889894579860.9137155594822326"></div> <div id="LPTitle_14889894579860.5611722647684871" style="top: 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-weight: normal; font-size: 21px; font-family: wf_segoe-ui_light, "Segoe UI Light", "Segoe WP Light", "Segoe UI", "Segoe WP", Tahoma, Arial, sans-serif; line-height: 21px;"> <a id="LPUrlAnchor_14889894579870.6254273713812346" href="http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel" target="_blank" style="text-decoration: none;">Sugar-devel Info Page</a></div> <div id="LPMetadata_14889894579870.027327782581775262" style="margin: 10px 0px 16px; color: rgb(102, 102, 102); font-weight: normal; font-family: wf_segoe-ui_normal, "Segoe UI", "Segoe WP", Tahoma, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 14px;"> lists.sugarlabs.org</div> <div id="LPDescription_14889894579870.48032177832527445" style="display: block; color: rgb(102, 102, 102); font-weight: normal; font-family: wf_segoe-ui_normal, "Segoe UI", "Segoe WP", Tahoma, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; max-height: 100px; overflow: hidden;"> Sugar-devel -- Discussion of Sugar development and other technical matters.
