This page documents the process of adding a new version of an activity (or a brand new activity) for a future NEXO build.

  1. On your own computer, access the Deployment share of the fileserver.
  2. Put the new or updated activity in the NEXO/activities directory
  3. Clean up the activities directory: remove old versions
    • This is important because this directory (in entirity) is synchronized to the school servers, sometimes over slow network links

If this is a new activity:

  1. Follow the NEXO development process to add the new activity to the OLPC_CORE_ACTIVITIES variable in /home/pilgrim/pilgrim/streams.d/olpc-development.stream (see NEXO build system for details) -- remember to commit and push your changes.
    • Ask the NEXO build master to do this step for you, if you prefer

Your activity is now ready for inclusion in the next NEXO build.
