Push out the new SBAC Secure Browser
« on: January 16, 2014, 02:48:00 PM »
Here is how we are installing the new SBAC Secure browser over the network. Below the script is the contents of the SecureBrowser.desktop file which you need to make (for some reason I can't attach it). The .desktop file is used to place a shortcut in the Launcher under the Network category.

Code: [Select]
if grep TEST-COMPUTER /etc/hostname
     then

     #this line tests if the browser has been installed by checking for one of the files we added
     if ! [ -e /home/user/.local/share/applications/SecureBrowser63.desktop ]
         then

         #Remove previous versions of secure browser
         rm -rf /opt/SBACSecureBrowser*
         rm -f /home/user/.local/share/applications/SecureBrowser*

         #These two lines download the browser and the shortcut file from your local webserver
         wget http://YOUR-WEB-SERVER/SBACSecureBrowser6.3-Linux.tar.bz2
         wget http://YOUR-WEB-SERVER/SecureBrowser.desktop

         #this untars (unzips) the browser to the /opt folder which is one place to install OPTional apps in linux
         sudo tar xvfj SBACSecureBrowser6.3-Linux.tar.bz2 -C /opt

         #puts the shortcut in the correct folder
         sudo cp SecureBrowser.desktop /home/user/.local/share/applications/SecureBrowser63.desktop

         #cleans up
         sudo rm SecureBrowser.desktop
         sudo rm SBACSecureBrowser6.3-Linux.tar.bz2
     fi
fi


.desktop file
Code: [Select]
[Desktop Entry]
Name=SecureBrowser
Exec=/opt/SBACSecureBrowser6.3/SBACSecureBrowser6.3
Type=Application
Categories=Network;
Icon=/opt/SBACSecureBrowser6.3/kiosk.png
Name[en_US]=SecureBrowser.txt

Have you tested the text to speech functionality yet?

I've been unable to get it to work.
