== Modify your activity to use the data files ==

−

~~You~~ need ~~can modify~~ the ~~file activity_es.py and modify the lines~~:

+

To create a wikipedia in a new language, you will need create the following files:

−

~~self~~.~~WIKIDB =~~ '~~es_new/eswiki-20111112-pages-articles~~.~~xml'~~

+

* activity/activity.info.''lang'': is the activity.info file for your language. You can copy

−

~~self.HOME_PAGE = '/static/index_es~~.~~html'~~

+

one from other language, and modify the name, the bundle_id, the icon and the exec line.

−

to ~~point to your new data files or create~~ a ~~new different file~~, ~~for example activity_pt.py~~.

+

* activity/activity-wikipedia-''lang''.svg: is the activity icon. The file can be copied from

+

another language, and modify with a text editor the last text element, to put the labugage code.

+

If you need edit the image with a graphic editor (like Inkscape) remember add the entities lines

+

in the header and replace the entities for stroke_color and fill_color, after that.

−

~~If you create a new file~~, ~~you will~~ need ~~to modify~~ the ~~file~~ activity/activity.info to ~~point~~ to ~~this new file~~.

+

* activity_''lang''.py: is the startup class, sets the configuration values and starts the server.

+

You can copy the class from another language and set the parameters. You need set the name of the class,

+

equal than the value in the exec value in the activity/activity.info.lang file.

+

* static/about_''lang''.html: Is a static about page. Translate it from a similar page from other language.

+

* static/index_''lang''.html: is the activity home page. Will have links to good pages to start to explore.

+

If you create your favorite list based in a translation of the home page from other language, would be a good idea translate the home page too.

Now, you can test your changes, starting the wikipedia server:

−

./~~server~~.py es_lat/eswiki-20111112-pages-articles.xml 8000

+

./activity_''lang''.py es_lat/eswiki-20111112-pages-articles.xml 8000

The first parameter is your xml data file and the second parameter a number of port.

~~You can create a new icon too, or modify the existing activity/activity-wikipedia-es.svg file.~~

−

If you are creating a new wikipedia activity, it's important change the name and the bundle_id in the activity/activity.info file. If you are updating the data in a existinting activity, the activity_version value must be changed.

Finally, to create the new .xo file and distribute it, you must do:
