Rapid Deployment of OppiaMobile Implementation

This page describes the processes for a rapid set up and deployment of OppiaMobile

Prerequisites

• A technical person/team with experience in deploying OppiaMobile

• An AWS account, or admin (root) access to a locally hosted server

• A Google Play developer account, preferably a Ministry or government account

Oppia Server

• Create a clone/fork of the OppiaMobile core server code (from: https://github.com/DigitalCampus/django-oppia)

• Either:

  1. set up a new local server for Oppia (see: Server - Manual Installation)

  2. launch and instance of the Oppia AWS server (see: Installing on Amazon Web Services)

• Set up a domain name to point to this servers IP address

• The server theme can be updated, but likely this can be dealt with later.

Oppia App

• Create a clone/fork of the OppiaMobile core app code (from: https://github.com/DigitalCampus/oppia-mobile-android)

• Import into Android Studio

• Follow the instructions here to update the app - OppiaMobile Android App Customisation

• Submit the app to the Google Play store

Content

• Preferably any new content should be written and developed with mobile adaptation in mind from the start. Otherwise the content adaptation will take much longer.

• Ensure a full review of the content takes place on an actual device

Deployment to users

• For quickest deployment, the users can be pregistered in the app, and the content pre-loaded, although this is not possible for users who might be remotely installing the app themselves

• Adapt or re-use the Initial Workshop for Users new to Android & Oppia
