The profile package can be used to get access to user specific details such as his/her nick_name, XO colors, public key, etc. Much of these details are accessed by first creating a Profile object. However, there are several shortcut helper functions that provide access to some user details directly.
Helper Functions
How do I get the user's nick name?
from sugar import profile ... #prof will refer to a Profile object used to access user information prof = profile.get_profile() # Two ways to print nickname: either through profile object, or through a helper funciton in sugar.profile print prof.nick_name print profile.get_nick_name()
How do I get the XO colors set by the user?
from sugar import profile ... #prof will refer to a Profile object used to access user information prof = profile.get_profile() # Two ways to get the XO colors: through profile object or using helper function print prof.color.to_string() print profile.get_color().to_string()
How do I access this XO's public key?
from sugar import profile ... #prof will refer to a Profile object used to access user information prof = profile.get_profile() #Two ways to get the public key for this XO: through Profile object or with helper function print prof.pubkey print profile.get_pubkey()
