| 3 | == Installing == |
| 4 | The theme.xml file, all sound files (along with any image preview) should be placed in `$PURPLEHOME/themes/$THEMENAME/purple/sound/` |
| 5 | Alternatively, in Linux the files can be put in /usr/share/themes/$THEMENAME/purple/sound/ |
| 6 | |
| 7 | == Creating == |
| 8 | A theme consists of a XML file called theme.xml, all of the sound files used by the theme, and an optional image preview/logo file. |
| 9 | |
| 10 | The root node of the XML file contains all information about the theme including the name, author, type of theme (sound), as well as the name of a image file to display as a preview of the theme. The theme file should also contain a description element which gives a short description of the theme. |
| 11 | |
| 12 | Under the root node, the theme should contain a list of event elements. Each event element should contain a name and a file attribute. The name attribute corresponds to the event for which the sound should be played, while the file attribute is the name of the file to play. A file can be used for multiple events and events can be left off so a sound is not played for a particular event. The event names are: |
| 13 | * login - a contact logs in |
| 14 | * logout - a contact logs off |
| 15 | * im_recv - a contact sends a message |
| 16 | * first_im_recv - a contact starts a conversation |
| 17 | * send_im - you send a message |
| 18 | * join_chat - a person enters a chat |
| 19 | * left_chat - a person leaves a chat |
| 20 | * send_chat_msg - you send a message in a chat |
| 21 | * chat_msg_recv - someone else sends a message in a chat |
| 22 | * nick_said - someone says your username in a chat |

| 24 | An example theme would look like: |
| 25 | |
| 26 | {{{ |
| 27 | <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> |
| 28 | <theme type="sound" name="Example sound theme" author="Your name" image="logo.png"> |

| 37 | <event name="send_chat_msg" file="chat_message_sent.mp3"/> |
| 38 | <event name="chat_msg_recv" file="chat_message_received.mp3"/> |
| 39 | <!-- event "nick_said" is not set--> |
