The bundle builder is a build system for Sugar activities. Usually, it
is setup by creating a `setup.py` file in the project with the following::
# setup.py
#!/usr/bin/env python
from sugar3.activity import bundlebuilder
bundlebuilder.start()
AppStream Metadata
==================
AppStream is the standard, distro-agnostic way of providing package metadata.
For Sugar activities, the AppStream metadata is automatically exported from
the activity.info file by the bundlebuilder.
Activities must have the following metadata fields under the [Activity] header
(of the `activity.info` file):
* `metadata_license` - license for screenshots and description. AppStream
requests only using one of the following: `CC0-1.0`, `CC-BY-3.0`,
`CC-BY-SA-3.0` or `GFDL-1.3`
* `license` - a `SPDX License Code`__, eg. `GPL-3.0+`
* `name`, `icon`, `bundle_id`, `summary` - same usage as in Sugar
* `description` - a long (multi paragraph) description of your application.
This must be written in a subset of HTML. Only the p, ol, ul and li tags
are supported.
Other good metadata items to have are:
* `url` - link to the home page for the activity on the internet
* `repository_url` - link to repository for activity code
* `screenshots` - a space separated list of screenshot URLs. PNG or JPEG files
are supported.
