Notes

To add your activity bundle to aslo-v4 , you need to be a member of the sugardl group. Then, copy your bundle to /srv/activities-v4/bundles , for example:

 rsync dist/Pippy-17.xo user@sunjammer.sugarlabs.org:/srv/activities-v4/bundles/
 
 # optionally, generate the metadata and copy them to the same bundles directory

 # add a link to source code repository
 git config --get remote.origin.url > org.laptop.Pippy.git
 
 # get a list of authors of the activity
 git -P --log --pretty=format:"%an" > org.laptop.Pippy.log

 # copy it to sunjammer's bundles/metadata directory
 rsync org.laptop.Pippy.* user@sunjammer.sugarlabs.org:/srv/activities-v4/bundles/metadata/
 
 # trigger a new build of aslo-v4
 rebuild-aslo

Deploy directory: /srv/www-sugarlabs/v4-activities Source directory: /srv/activities-v4/src Bundle (*.xo) directory: /srv/activities-v4/bundles

Upgrade notes

As activities-v4 user on Machine/sunjammer, do

 ~/bin/also-refresh-src
 ~/bin/aslo-rebuild

This will pull master from the source repository, and the python library will be installed to ~/.local/lib/python3.x/site-packages . Once this has been done, it will be accessible from any directory. ~/bin/aslo-rebuild will rebuild v4.activities.sugarlabs.org, and deploy it to /srv/www-sugarlabs/v4-activities . This is only recommended if the user is activities-v4. For all other cases, please use rebuild-aslo -> /usr/local/bin/rebuild-aslo and source-update-aslo -> /usr/local/bin/source-update-aslo for rebuilding and updating the source code.

ASLO-v4 also maintains host specific configuration in /srv/activities-v4/etc which is maintained in a git repository. To make changes, add yourself to the activities-v4 group and commit your changes.
