When you run "quickly create ubuntu-application test-app", you get an
error that "env" doesn't exist. This error message is completely
unintuitive. The real problem is that schemas are not generated for
new projects:
# Compile schema if present
schemapath = os.path.abspath("data/glib-2.0/schemas")
if os.path.exists(schemapath):
subprocess.call(["glib-compile-schemas", schemapath])
datadir = os.path.abspath("data")
if 'XDG_DATA_DIRS' in env:
env['XDG_DATA_DIRS'] = "%s:%s" % (datadir, env['XDG_DATA_DIRS'])
else:
env['XDG_DATA_DIRS'] = datadir
# run the new application if X display
if templatetools.is_X_display() and os.path.isfile(exec_file):
print _("Launching your newly created project!")
subprocess.call(['./' + project_name], cwd='bin/', env=env)
So, first you check if schemapath exists. It never does. Then you see
if X and exec_file exists, and they do. However, env doesn't exist
because it's only being set if schemapath exists. The question is; why
isn't schemas generated for new projects?
The code above seems to be copied in several places, by the way.
Perhaps it would be better to make it reusable?
