Hi Pranav, Activity Streams is first of all a standalone project. We developed it specifically to use at Allura, but did it in a way that was generic and made it into is own library. Docs for it are here http://pythonhosted.org/ActivityStream/ Then in Allura we integrate it to hook up allura User and Project objects, so that they are the types of things that people can "follow". And Artifacts (like ticket, comment, wiki page, etc) are set up as the activity items. In many places in the code, it sends out an activity item when someone does something (create a ticket, etc). The last piece is the ForgeActivity package which provides the "Activity" tool in the menu. That is the front-end page where you can actually click to follow users & projects, and see all the activity items from those users & projects you follow. -- Dave Brondsema : [email protected] http://www.brondsema.net : personal http://www.splike.com : programming <><
