This is an activity for the Sugarizer Platform. Built using Threejs to render the 3D scene and Cannon-es to add real world physics. This activity will help children visualize and play around with different types of volumes. To Run the application you can follow the following steps -
If you're a developer you could also launch Sugarizer desktop application using electron. First, install Node.js and npm on your computer. See here for more information. Then install electron and specific modules for Sugarizer by running:
npm install
Then launch Sugarizer for GNU Linux with:
npm start > /dev/null
Or, for Mac OS/Windows, just:
npm start
You could use Sugarizer desktop arguments using "--" after start. For example:
npm start -- --window
To run locally Sugarizer Application into the Web Browser (GNU Linux/Mac OS/Windows), you should launch it with a special option to enable access to local files.
For Chrome, close ALL running instances of Chrome and re-launch it using the command line:
chrome --allow-file-access-from-files file:\\\<Directory>\sugarizer\index.html
In the path above, <Directory> is where you have stored/cloned your sugarizer repo into.
In Windows, \ is the way path is written and / is the way for Linux/MacOS backward and forward slashes differ here, hence path for Linux/MacOS will be:
chrome --allow-file-access-from-files file:///<Directory>/sugarizer/index.html
On Windows, you should launch:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe" --allow-file-access-from-files <path>
On Mac OS, you should launch:
open -n /Applications/Google\ Chrome.app --args --allow-file-access-from-files <path>
On Linux, you should launch:
google-chrome-stable --allow-file-access-from-files <path>
Note:
google-chrome-stableis the name of Chrome in Ubuntu but it could be different on other distribution, you can get the package-name for Chrome by runningsudo dpkg -l | grep chrome
For Firefox, type in the address bar:
about:config
Search for the security.fileuri.strict_origin_policy parameter and
set it to false.
For Safari go to the Safari/Preferences... menu, under Advanced panel check the Show develop menu in menu bar box. Then from the Develop menu, select Disable local file restrictions.
