Re: [Sugar-devel] Proxy Settings Feature in the recent versions of sugar

Hi Gonzalo, No, I am not using NetworkManager API for the proxy configuration. I am settings the proxy settings to "org.gnome.sugar.proxy" schemas and then exporting them to environment variables ($http_proxy). On Wed, Mar 16, 2016 at 2:07 AM, Gonzalo Odiard wrote: > Are

Are you using NetworkManager API to configure the proxy? On Tue, Mar 15, 2016 at 5:27 PM, Manash Raja wrote: > Dear James, > > Regarding moving to src/jarabe/main.py , as far as I know, there isn't a > direct way for python to set the required environment variables >

Re: [Sugar-devel] Proxy Settings Feature in the recent versions of sugar

Dear James, Regarding moving to src/jarabe/main.py , as far as I know, there isn't a direct way for python to set the required environment variables (http_proxy) and make it accessible to all other processes. The various method in python for editing the environment variables, keeps the changes

Re: [Sugar-devel] Proxy Settings Feature in the recent versions of sugar

Thanks, that's interesting. Your /usr/bin/sugar (aka bin/sugar.in) will run gsettings many times, and this is inefficient, causing unnecessary delay during startup. Perhaps if you move this into src/jarabe/main.py which already uses Gio.Settings? You have worked on your master branch and the

Re: [Sugar-devel] Proxy Settings Feature in the recent versions of sugar

Hi, I thank you all for the guidance. I modified my PR as per your suggestions and now the implementation of the proxy feature is far better. @Sam, as you suggested, I have now completely removed the need of re-writing "proxy.sh" every time the settings changes and am using

Yes, the feature page is out of date. Please fix it. Pages that link to the feature page are 0.96 and 0.98 feature lists. http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/0.96/Feature_List (defer) http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/0.98/Feature_List (accepted, but x%) The feature was code complete, with pre-github pull

Hi Manash, I don't know why the feature page says 100% complete. Maybe it was included in sugar-dextrose which IDK where the code is for nowdays. Anyway, it it looking good. Overall, I saw it and thought that manually setting environment variables was very messy. But consulting the

Hi, This implementation implies that it must be set for each XO (in a school with 100 XOs!). How is it proposed to explain this to the classroom teacher who would need to make this setting or walk their children through it. It would seem more appropriate that this configuration be made by a
