[Xerte] Re: Android App

[Julian Tenney]

Duh, I left a hard coded path in there for testing. Try it again now... you should be able to:

- create a folder in toolkits, get the RSS link to that and add that content; all content included has to be public, xml sharing=on and include in RSS = on;

- or you can subscribe directly to a learning object's xml_ url.

This looks brill. I have managed to download the app successfully on my Samsung Galaxy. Your content sample opens and works fine. I have copied one of my learning objects and stripped some features out to keep basically to your list and have set up the shared XML link but it will not open?
I have also tried the RSS feed but can't run that either and I really want this to work as I think it is a great idea. Any suggestions.
Thanks
Julie

Subject: [Xerte] Android App

I've got an android app that consumes toolkits content: all the text pages, and all the navigators so far. You can subscribe either to the RSS feed of a folder, or to a learning object itself.

If you've got an android phone, you can install the (beta) application from http://www.nottingham.ac.uk/xerte/downloads/application.apk.

Thoughts most welcome.

On the home screen you can subscribe to content from a toolkits installation, either a folder's RSS feed, or a learning object's xml (via the xml link in the xml sharing tab on properties). The app has been built with Xerte 3.0, and I'll put the source code up at some point. There is obviously more work to do with supporting the other page types, but I do wonder how many it is sensible to attempt, anyway, there's a few to be getting on with.

Next steps is to package it for iPhone, but it's not as easy as the Android route. I think we can also do Blackberry.
