An exercise for new contributors

Exercise

In order to help you practice in the GCompris framework, I propose you to make this little exercise.

Mandatory: GCompris development is done on a GNU/Linux distribution of your choice.

Install GNU/Linux on your computer if you don't already have it.
Download and Install the lastest stable version of QtCreator for Android
Get the GCompris code from the Kde Git version control system (or see bellow the GitHub option).
- git clone git@github.com:bdoin/GCompris-qt.git
- cd GCompris-qt
Create a branch for your development
- git checkout -b exercise
Start QtCreator and open the project file CMakeLists.txt at the root of the source code
Compile and run it.
Create a new activity using the supplied createit.sh script. For example, use your nick name as the activity name.
- cd src/activities
- ./createit.sh 'my new activity'
Compile GCompris again in Qt Creator, check you new activity is present
Modify the activity to display an image, a rectangle and a text.
(Warning, if you add resources in you activity's resource directory you must run cmake again).
- You can search for code examples in other activities and check the Qml getting started.
Add an event to a graphical object so that clicking on it does something visual.
Use git add and git commit to commit your changes locally.
- git add 'my new activity'
- git commit -a

Create an account on github
Fork [git@github.com:bdoin/GCompris-qt.git GCompris]
- Look at these instructions
Code your activity
Commit the code
Push it
- git push
On github send me a pull request
