Cloning TeamCode Folder

[adryavitia]

I couln´t clone the TeamCoed folder and my guess is that it was because I didn´t accomplish step 2 from the ReadMe file because I can´t find the TeamCode.iml in the folder I cloned

@adryavitia There should only be *.gradle files when you clone the repository. The *.iml files are created by Android Studio and are based on the *.gradle files. The *.iml files should not be present in any repository because they are completely derived from the *.gradle and user settings. To get the *.iml files, you must import the entire project using Android Studio.

@magneticflux- And if we are using Github what would be the procedure, first I clone the repository, then I copy the TeamCode Folder and finally open Android Studio by importing the project from GitHub or from the computes

@adryavitia You should not have to copy the TeamCode folder. the rest of the repository is required for the TeamCode folder to work properly.

The steps:

1. Download the repository (Clone, zip, etc.)
2. Open Android Studio
3. Import the ftc_app project
4. Put your code in the TeamCode module

Yes, but my question is what would the steps be if I want to have multiple Team Codes by cloning the main Team Code folder

Our team does this: 1- Copy all of TeamCode, renaming (for example TaterCode). 2- Edit settings.gradle, adding two lines: include ':TaterCode' project(':TaterCode').projectDir = new File('TaterCode')

If you want the new team code area to be under a different folder tree, you can use a relative path in the new File().

And how do you apply the changes in the github repository?

[NoahAndrews]

Same way you apply any change to the GitHub repository. Commit and push. You can do that from within Android Studio or from the command line.

@adryavitia You must have your own GitHub repository though. You'll just get push rejected if you try to change the official FTC one. I would recommend downloading a zip of ftc_app and making your own GitHub repository instead of forking ftc_app.

EDIT: If you want an example of a club with multiple teams, you can check out our organization Pattonville Robotics. Team 2866 and Team 2867 are up-to-date. They use a common library and Maven repo as well, but that's probably overkill for what you need.

Thank you everyone
