Basic Usage

  • This feature helps share Journal/Documents/Mounted-Drives' entries across XOs, via the following two mechanisms ::


    • Peer-to-Peer mode
      • Sharing in this mode is possible, only when the server and client XO(s) are on the same networks. Thus, peer-to-peer sharing would work on
        • XOs connected to the same Access Point.
        • Adhoc-Network connections.


    • Via School-Server
      • In this mode, an XO uploads an entry to the central School Server; from where the client XO(s) may download the entry.
      • This mode of sharing works as long as the School-Server is HTTP-pingable between the server and client XOs. Thus, this mode of sharing would work when
        • XOs are connected to the same Access Point (as long as school-server is pingable throughout).
        • XOs are connected to the different Access Points (as long as school-server is pingable throughout).
        • XOs are conencted to Adhoc-Network (as long as school-server is pingable throughout).

Example Workflow for Peer-To-Peer Mode

SCREENSHOTS

[PEER 1] "Journal" - View.

P11.png




[PEER 1] Detail view of the journal-entry. Note the preview presence.

P12.png




[PEER 1] Initial "Local Shares" View

P13.png




[PEER 1] Copy the journal entry to "Local Shares", to make it available for sharing to other peers.

P14.png




[PEER 1] "Local Shares" view, after copying the entry.

P15.png





[PEER 1] The detail view in "Local Shares". NOTE that the preview MUST be present, and it must be same as that of "Journal".

P16.png




Confirm by looking into the "Shares" view, that the entries are present.

1n006.png




Ensure that "Documents" folder is empty.

1n007.png




From the "Shares" view, choose an entry to copy (download) to Documents.

1n008.png




Enter a (incorrect) password.

1n009.png




'Passphrase not match' message appears.

1n010.png




Again, choose the entry to copy (download) to Documents.

1n011.png





This time, enter the correct passphrase. The entry is (successfully) downloaded.

1n012.png




Ensure that the entry is present in the "Documents" view.

1n013.png

Ensure that "Shares" view is empty.

1n000.png




Choose the files to upload to the "School-Server".

1n001.png




Confirmation alert pops up. Choose "Continue"

1n002.png




Enter passphrase for first entry, and choose "Ok". Note that passphrase repeats for uploads are allowed.

1n003.png




After the first entry is uploaded, passphrase needs to be entered for the second entry. Then choose "Ok".

1n004.png





Both uploads finished.

1n005.png




Confirm by looking into the "Shares" view, that the entries are present.

1n006.png




Ensure that "Documents" folder is empty.

1n007.png




From the "Shares" view, choose an entry to copy (download) to Documents.

1n008.png




Enter a (incorrect) password.

1n009.png




'Passphrase not match' message appears.

1n010.png




Again, choose the entry to copy (download) to Documents.

1n011.png





This time, enter the correct passphrase. The entry is (successfully) downloaded.
