開発環境をセットアップする

OLPCのソフトウェア環境はGUI shell (Sugar)の走る相当に変更の施されたFedora Core Linuxシステムです。このプラットフォーム向けの開発には、結果的にOLPC環境と殆ど同じような動作環境のプラットフォームを操作する必要がでてくるでしょう。幸いにも多くの利用可能な選択肢があります。

The OLPC's software environment is a heavily modified Fedora Core Linux system running a custom GUI shell (Sugar). To develop for the platform you will eventually need access to a platform which runs in a manner substantially similar to the OLPC environment. Luckily there are many available options.

オプション 1 - sugar-jhbuild

エミュレーションされたXO環境を使うことに比べ、sugarのインストールには多くの時間とハードディスクの空きがセットアップに必要ですが、結果的により優れた環境を手に入れることができます。これがコア開発チームが使っている方法です。

Compared with using an Emulated XO, installing sugar takes more time and space to set up, but results in a better environment. This is what the core development team uses.

32-bit Linuxでの作業

sugar-jhbuildはOLPCソフトウェア群を走らせるのに必要なライブラリをセットアップできるもう一つの方法です。このやり方では、殆どの最近のLinuxディストリビューションで実用的な範囲で概してうまく動きます。いくつかのLinux(32-bit Ubuntu, 32-bit Fedora(?))では、"問題なく動きます"。ビルドシステム(jhbuild)自身は不安定ですが。その他のLinuxについては、再ビルドとエラーの訂正にかなりの時間を費やす必要があるかもしれません。ですので、エミュレーションには"問題なく動作する"linuxの利用を検討ください。

sugar-jhbuild builds a parallel set of the libraries required to run the OLPC software. This approach generally works reasonably well on most modern Linux distributions. On some linuxes (32-bit Ubuntu, 32-bit Fedora(?)), it "just works". Though the build system (jhbuild) can be fragile. On others, you may spend quite some time rebuilding and fixing errors to get a final working system, so consider running a "just works" linux in emulation.

仮想化Linuxを使うWindows/Mac/Linuxでの作業

オプション 2 - エミュレートされたXO上で動かす

Unixを使い慣れた開発者（sshを通してコマンドラインでの操作を好む）にとって、XOのOSイメージをエミュレーションで動かすことはOLPCシステム向けソフトの開発をはじめる最もシンプルな方法です。それらはQemu, VMWareあるいはParallelsといった人気の有るエミュレーション/仮想化システムで走らせることができます。これらのイメージはあなたが普段使っている開発用ワークステーションでOLPC用に設定された仮想化マシンを走らせることができます。

これらの公式イメージはGUI IDEsやSVGグラフィックエディタを含んでいません。これらのイメージはあなたが実際に作業を行うワークステーション上で通常コマンドラインツール（VIMとか）やNFS（あるいはsshとか同種のもの）を使うことで利用可能です。

Running an XO OS image in emulation is, for Unix-friendly developers (those who like using command-line tools via ssh), the simplest way to start developing for the OLPC system. They can be run in one of the popular emulation/virtualisation systems, such as Qemu, VMWare or Parallels. These images allow you to run a virtual OLPC-configured machine on your regular development workstation.

These official images do not provide GUI IDEs or SVG graphics editors. They normally would be used either with command-line tools (e.g. VIM) or using NFS (or ssh, or similar) to a workstation on which you will do your actual coding.

オプション 3 - イメージあるいはLiveCDを使うLinux上でのSugar

Developer Images are intended to be used as virtual desktop machines. The images have far more software than is installed on the OLPC laptops. They resemble a developer's desktop machine which has been upgraded to support the Sugar environment. They tend to have GUI IDEs, full Gnome desktop installations and the like, which make it easy for developers to work entirely within the emulated environment.

Developers working on Developer Images should be sure to test their creations on real OLPC Laptops or official images in order to be sure that they do not have dependencies on software not available on the actual laptops.

As of 2007-May-23, the developer images have not been updated since early April. Is this approach depreciated? MitchellNCharity 18:13, 23 May 2007 (EDT)
No, it is *not* deprecated. For those who are not Linux developers the developer builds are much more likely to allow for starting to develop on day one. These images are intended to be download-and-start-coding tools for developers who prefer GUI environments for working. Mcfletch 24 May 2007
Might such developers be better off with running sugar-jhbuild on a virtual Ubuntu? MitchellNCharity 09:02, 23 June 2007 (EDT)
May as well reverse this advice. Until such time as we get new developer builds, yes, you probably need to go elsewhere. Getting new developer builds created is becoming a bit of a priority as a result. Mcfletch 12 Aug 2007

オプション 4 - 更新済みライブラリを使うLinux上のSugar

Update your Linux operating system to such a point that it resembles the OLPC environment. You then need only use the more fragile build system for a tiny fraction of the packages required. You should be aware that such upgrades often will require you to update well beyond the "stable" configurations for your Linux distribution, and as such may make your system unstable.

As of 2007-04-08 only Fedora Core 6/7, Gentoo and Ubuntu Feisty Fawn are known to upgrade reasonably well.
As of 2007-05-23 it appears this approach is deprecated on Fedora Core, and doesn't work with x86_64. MitchellNCharity 16:54, 23 May 2007 (EDT)

オプション 5 - 実物のXOラップトップを使う

Hardware Developer's Program - while there are only a small number of test units being produced, developers can submit proposals to receive one of those units for testing and development.

動作環境

Languages:

  • Technically any language is usable
  • Python is strongly encouraged, to have a single language "under the hood" when the curious child looks inside
  • C/C++ should be used where Python performance is unacceptable, but try to keep it to a minimum, preferably as standard well-encapsulated and documented components
  • Smalltalk-speaking developers may wish to work within the eToys environment
  • Javascript can be used in web-based applications (Gecko or Opera engine Javascript implementation)

GUI Environments:

  • PyGTK or the PyGTK-derived Sugar system should be used for most "Window, Icon, Mouse, Pointer" type GUIs. Note, however, as of 2007-04-21 that the Sugar "graphics" package is in Flux.
  • Pygame SDL-based 2D game environment can be used for "Canvas" graphics using "Sprites".
  • (Mozilla) XULRunner can be used to develop Gecko-based activities

Operating Stack:

  • Hardware
  • Fedora Core based Operating System
  • Bitfrost Security System
  • Sugar GUI Shell

Libraries/modules:

  • Check to see what libraries are included before you begin development. Even some "universally available" libraries, such as OpenGL, are not available!
  • Carefully choose support modules to minimize your storage footprint, for instance if you need a database, choose Sqlite rather than MySQL. Or better yet, use dbm.
  • If you are unsure what is supported, ask.

Testing/working:

  • Test your application in an official image (or a physical laptop) before publishing broadly
  • To conserve memory or improve performance, consider replacing problematic areas in your Python code with C. For example, a rewrite of the hardware manager service in C saved 1.8 megabytes of private dirty memory. On a machine with only 256 megabytes of RAM and no swap space, efficient use of memory can make the difference between a usable system and a system made unreliable by out-of-memory failures.
  • Distribute your source code under the GPL, LGPL or MIT license.

動作環境

Most developers will probably be working on an Activity for use on the OLPC. This kind of development can normally be done with little interaction with other development groups, save for the core Sugar developers (whose work directly affects activity developers).

情報交換の場所

Most of the core developers use IRC for instant-messaging-style communications: 

 irc.freenode.net #sugar

the Sugar mailing list is also used for broader comment and collaboration: 

 List Information

If you have a large number of developers in a given area and would like to set up a local discussion list, post to the Sugar mailing list with a request for a new discussion list.

Current Active Local Discussion Lists:

プロジェクトに対するリクエストとアイデア

Software ideas describes activity and tool types that are currently needed. If you have an idea for an activity, add it to the list in the appropriate category (create a new category if necessary). You can create a new wiki page to describe your idea in more detail.

既存プロジェクト

Software projects describes the currently active projects that may need help. Once you have decided on a project, add yourself to the list along with your contact information, homepage (which may be a wiki page on the OLPC wiki), etceteras. In particular, the various Activities available on the XO may need help as build time draws near; if you're looking for an existing project to get your feet wet with, check there.

利用可能なリソース

The Developers Program provides general project management facilities for OLPC projects.

ドキュメント

チュートリアル

リファレンス

These documents are frequently referenced during the development process.

  • Sugar Architecture covers Sugar APIs and specifications
  • Human interaction guidelines (HIG) for Sugar activities
  • Bitfrost summary (full spec) the security system which will control activities and their interaction with the system and other users
  • Sugar PyDoc just provides the raw API documentation, which is severely lacking in documentation strings (Good familiarisation project might be working with Marco to improve that situation)
  • Hippo PyDoc again, just raw API documentation, needs lots of documentation effort
  • Software components is a somewhat old document describing the various pieces of software and libraries involved in the system.
  • Instructions on using the Sugar user interface
  • Understanding sugar code provides an overview of how Sugar interacts with activities, including startup and shutdown, useful to understand the environment in which your activity will run
  • Activity Bundles describes the packaging structure

よくある質問と答

Sugarでネットワークを使うにはどうすればいいですか?

  • Internal (to other laptops) (use Tubes)
  • External (to the wider internet)
  • Activity Sharing (session establishment)
  • Otherwise general Python networking
    • Twisted (will this be available on the images?)
    • Asyncore
    • PyRO (Python remote objects)
    • XMLRPC/SOAP

永続的なサーバやサービスを作るにはどうすればいいですか?

  • How do I register for start-time loading?
  • Is there any dbus event service for loading only on response to messages? That is, not loading until there is an event of a given type, such as a presence event?
    • Yes, of a sort, services are defined in .service files, these match a named service to an executable which is to provide that service. Thus one can register to handle requests for a given named service, but you still need to arrange to have that service called by something.

特殊なハードウェアにアクセスするにはどうすればいいですか?

カメラ
{{{1}}}

ビデオカメラとしてのカメラ(v4l2?)
  • Is a regular v4l2 device available via gstreamer (gst module)
    • If you do not have hardware, you can simulate the camera interactively with an regular v4l2 source (many cheap web-cams provide this type of source)
    • For test-driven development, you can use any gstreamer source (such as a regular file), hooking up your code to use a file source instead of a v4l2src
  • Try this from a terminal in the developer console: gst-launch-0.10 v4l2src ! ximagesink (The image will appear behind the developer console window so you'll need to move the window aside.)
  • See also: Programming the camera

指向性パッド/ボタン類
  • Have their own X key names
  • Currently 4-button set mapped to arrow (cursor) keys
  • Two separate buttons mapped to ??? (pageup/pagedown)

タッチパッド

ドローイングパッド(スタイラスパッド）
  • How to switch in/out of stylus mode?
  • How to set interpretation parameters?

オーディオポートプローブ
  • How to get access?
    • What's going to come out when I get access (keeping in mind I (the developer) likely won't have the actual hardware available)

スクリーンのモード切替コード
  • backlight on/off
  • backlight brightness
  • set all 8 (4 distinct) settings for MODE_MONO_LUMA, MODE_CSWIZZLE, MODE_COL_AA
  • query, change, and restrict screen orientation
  • drop to a lower resolution for performance or ease of porting, such as 600x450 or 400x300

自分のアクティビティGUIを作るにはどうすればいいですか?

  • Can I just use Cairo, Pygame or GTK directly?
    • Sugar's own GUI interface is coded in a GTK derived library (Hippo), using an internal "sugar.graphics" package. This package is currently in flux and you should not likely start new projects using it until the API stabilises. In the meantime please use GTK or PyGame (SDL) for you project's GUI.
  • How can a non-GTK (or Qt) app fully interact with Sugar?
    • At the moment it cannot do this easily.
    • Sugar is using custom dbus messages to communicate with a server that must be present for every activity. That restriction may be relaxed in the future.
      • Can be easily "fixed" by creating a wrapper in Python (e.g. the ClassicGnome activity)
      • Can write various DBUS services using a GTK event loop to provide the required introspection services (implies that GTK must be loaded by every process, regardless of whether it is needed)
      • Can alter your core event loop to cooperate with an embedded GObject event loop (PyGame allows this, for instance), with the small concern that this requires loading GObject into your process' memory space
  • How flexible does the GUI need to be?
    • Should be able to handle a resize-and-rotate event from the X server
    • Should be able to handle internationalisation/localisation, including to right-to-left-written scripts
  • What's the best development approach:
    • Write outside Sugar, finish and debug, then port?
      • For older PowerPC-based Macs, this is likely the best approach
    • Write to Sugar, test and debug within the system?
      • Usable if you can set up a reasonably-performing emulated system or upgrade your system to support Sugar directly
  • How does HippoCanvas work?

自分のアクティビティをパッケージするにはどうすればいいですか?

  • How do I work from an in-process activity (develop registration)?
    • setup.py develop
    • You can use sugar-activity to start the activity, but you have to manually close it (using the Sugar GUI: show the frame, then move to the activity icon on the top bar, hover for a second, then click close (yes, it's really that awkward))
  • How do I produce a binary extension?
  • How do I make my package available for users to download dynamically?
  • How do I tell users about updates to the packages?
  • How do I share code between activities?
    • How do I use (large, common) Python packages?
      • Numpy
      • Matplotlib
      • MySQL or PostgreSQL client code
      • Twisted
      • Zope Interfaces
      • Pygsear or other PyGame extensions
    • How do I provide my own base packages on top of which I have written dozens of applications?

アプリケーション間でファイルを共有するにはどうすればいいですか?

Plan at the moment is to have file-sharing handled by the underlying system. That is, the system will simply notice that you have duplicate files with the same properties and hash and will share them between the two activities.

Sugarのアクティビティをテストするにはどうすればいいですか?

  • Start sugar, start a bash shell, run "sugar-jhbuild shell" to set up the sugar environment variables, then use "sugar-activity YourActivityName" to run the activity with output going to your local shell

Sugarのアクティビティをデバッグするにはどうすればいいですか?

If you start your Sugar activity from the command line, you can insert a standard Python: 

 import pdb
 pdb.set_trace()

command into your activity and then use the Python debugger to step through your activity's behaviour. Note that this will "freeze" your application while you are working, so you may have display issues.

他で利用してもらうためにパブリッシュするにはどうすればいいですか?

ラップトップのemacsで編集するにはどうすればいいですか?

USBドライブをマウントするにはどうすればいいですか?

Normally this is done automatically by the HAL when you plug the USB key into the laptop. It will show up as a directory in the /media folder. If, however, you had the USB key in when you started the machine, or the HAL doesn't recognize the key, you may not get the mount completed. In that case you can try manually mounting the key:

  • Enter the linux shell mode
  • First become root: $ su
  • Then make a place to mount it: $ mkdir /mnt/usb
  • Then mount the drive: $ mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/usb
  • Don't forget to unmount it before removal: $ umount /mnt/usb
  • If anything fails you should edit your /etc/fstab file to include the mount point, device, and filesystem for the device to mount.
