| The program that you run using Sugar are called Activities. Why? Because Sugar, in its departure from the desktop metaphor for computing, is the first serious attempt to create a [[Documentation Team/Glossary|user interface]] that is based on both cognitive and social [[wikipedia:Constructivism_%28learning_theory%29| constructivism]]: an environment where learners engage in authentic exploration and collaboration in the act of learning. | | The program that you run using Sugar are called Activities.

| | | |
− | How can a user start an activity from the command line without starting Sugar? Please supply a sample command.
| |
− |
| |
− | Why? I'm tired of digging around for the error logs. I figured I could do something like
| |
− | sugar - run pippy 2>pippyerrors.txt
| |
− |
| |
− | bemasc suggests
| |
− | less ~/.sugar/default/logs/org.whatever
| |
− | :Note the above command will take some messing around with to get what you want.
| |
− |
| |
− | I have tried:
| |
− |
| |
− | user@ubuntu:~/sugar-jhbuild$ ./sugar-jhbuild launch pippy
| |
− | sugar-jhbuild launch: command not found
| |
− | user@ubuntu:~/sugar-jhbuild$ ./sugar-jhbuild sugar - launch pippy
| |
− | sugar-jhbuild sugar: command not found
| |
− | user@ubuntu:~/sugar-jhbuild$ ./sugar-jhbuild pippy
| |
− | sugar-jhbuild pippy: command not found
| |
− | user@ubuntu:~/sugar-jhbuild$ ./sugar-jhbuild run pippy
| |
− | sugar-jhbuild run: Unable to execute the command 'pippy': [Errno 2] No such file or directory
| |
− |
| |
− | And the response.
| |
− |
| |
− | <bemasc> dgd: impossible.
| |
− | <dgd> bemasc, ?
| |
− | <dgd> not possible to run activities from jhbuild is that what you mean bemasc
| |
− | <bemasc> dgd: sugar activities cannot run outside of sugar, and more than a java applet can run outside of the JVM, or a flash applet can run outside of a flash interpreter.
| |
− | <bemasc> s/and/any/
| |
− | <dgd> ok, so running just the activity in sugar?
| |
− | <dgd> just one activity, none of the home stuff etc.
| |
− | <bemasc> also not possible
| |
− | <dgd> I thought for sure I read in the docs that you can run just an activity...
| |
− | <bemasc> by "not possible" I mean "requires you to modify the code for the Sugar shell".
| |
− | < bemasc> You can probably cause Sugar to launch and immediately start an activity. You might be able to do this using a .xsession script.
| |
− | <bemasc> However, users will still be able to bring up the frame and switch to the home view, etc.
| |
− |
| |
− | ====Where are the activities stored?====
| |
− | Some users will find them here:
| |
− | /usr/share/sugar/activities/
| |
− |
| |
− | Jhbuild users will find the activities here:
| |
− | ./install/share/sugar/activities/Calculate.activity/activity
| |
− | ./source/terminal/activity
