This also improves randomness by avoiding to reinitialize the random
number generator repeatedly from a seed based on the current time.
Typically, if the number generator is reinitialized repeatedly at
non-random times (like multiple times in a row), then generated numbers
have a higher chance of repeating.
The Kotlin Random object is only initialized once, using the best seed
available for the current Android version.

This helps playing some media even if there is a problem with the

on my Fairphone 4 without this change.

**! ! Warning**: Do not merge before testing every API call and database
read involving JSON !
**Gson** is obsolete and has been superseded by **Moshi**. But more
importantly, parsing Kotlin objects using Gson is _dangerous_ because
Gson uses Java serialization and is **not Kotlin-aware**. This has two
main consequences:
- Fields of non-null types may end up null at runtime. Parsing will
succeed, but the code may crash later with a `NullPointerException` when
trying to access a field member;
- Default values of constructor parameters are always ignored. When
absent, reference types will be null, booleans will be false and
integers will be zero.
On the other hand, Kotlin-aware parsers like **Moshi** or **Kotlin
Serialization** will validate at parsing time that all received fields
comply with the Kotlin contract and avoid errors at runtime, making apps
more stable and schema mismatches easier to detect (as long as logs are
accessible):
- Receiving a null value for a non-null type will generate a parsing
error;
- Optional types are declared explicitly by adding a default value. **A
missing value with no default value declaration will generate a parsing
error.**
Migrating the entity declarations from Gson to Moshi will make the code
more robust but is not an easy task because of the semantic differences.
With Gson, both nullable and optional fields are represented with a null
value. After converting to Moshi, some nullable entities can become
non-null with a default value (if they are optional and not nullable),
others can stay nullable with no default value (if they are mandatory
and nullable), and others can become **nullable with a default value of
null** (if they are optional _or_ nullable _or_ both). That third option
is the safest bet when it's not clear if a field is optional or not,
except for lists which can usually be declared as non-null with a
default value of an empty list (I have yet to see a nullable array type
in the Mastodon API).
Fields that are currently declared as non-null present another
challenge. In theory, they should remain as-is and everything will work
fine. In practice, **because Gson is not aware of nullable types at
all**, it's possible that some non-null fields currently hold a null
value in some cases but the app does not report any error because the
field is not accessed by Kotlin code in that scenario. After migrating
to Moshi however, parsing such a field will now fail early if a null
value or no value is received.
These fields will have to be identified by heavily testing the app and
looking for parsing errors (`JsonDataException`) and/or by going through
the Mastodon documentation. A default value needs to be added for
missing optional fields, and their type could optionally be changed to
nullable, depending on the case.
Gson is also currently used to serialize and deserialize objects to and
from the local database, which is also challenging because backwards
compatibility needs to be preserved. Fortunately, by default Gson omits
writing null fields, so a field of type `List<T>?` could be replaced
with a field of type `List<T>` with a default value of `emptyList()` and
reading back the old data should still work. However, nullable lists
that are written directly (not as a field of another object) will still
be serialized to JSON as `"null"` so the deserializing code must still
be handling null properly.
Finally, changing the database schema is out of scope for this pull
request, so database entities that also happen to be serialized with
Gson will keep their original types even if they could be made non-null
as an improvement.
In the end this is all for the best, because the app will be more
reliable and errors will be easier to detect by showing up earlier with
a clear error message. Not to mention the performance benefits of using
Moshi compared to Gson.
- Replace Gson reflection with Moshi Kotlin codegen to generate all
parsers at compile time.
- Replace custom `Rfc3339DateJsonAdapter` with the one provided by
moshi-adapters.
- Replace custom `JsonDeserializer` classes for Enum types with
`EnumJsonAdapter.create(T).withUnknownFallback()` from moshi-adapters to
support fallback values.
- Replace `GuardedBooleanAdapter` with the more generic `GuardedAdapter`
which works with any type. Any nullable field may now be annotated with
`@Guarded`.
- Remove Proguard rules related to Json entities. Each Json entity needs
to be annotated with `@JsonClass` with no exception, and adding this
annotation will ensure that R8/Proguard will handle the entities
properly.
- Replace some nullable Boolean fields with non-null Boolean fields with
a default value where possible.
- Replace some nullable list fields with non-null list fields with a
default value of `emptyList()` where possible.
- Update `TimelineDao` to perform all Json conversions internally using
`Converters` so no Gson or Moshi instance has to be passed to its
methods.
- ~~Create a custom `DraftAttachmentJsonAdapter` to serialize and
deserialize `DraftAttachment` which is a special entity that supports
more than one json name per field. A custom adapter is necessary because
there is not direct equivalent of `@SerializedName(alternate = [...])`
in Moshi.~~ Remove alternate names for some `DraftAttachment` fields
which were used as a workaround to deserialize local data in 2-years old
builds of Tusky.
- Update tests to make them work with Moshi.
- Simplify a few `equals()` implementations.
- Change a few functions to `val`s
- Turn `NetworkModule` into an `object` (since it contains no abstract
methods).
Please test the app thoroughly before merging. There may be some fields
currently declared as mandatory that are actually optional.
The flow must emit every update even if the values are the same, so use
SharedFlow instead of StateFlow.

Currently, ExoPlayer is initialized explicitly in `ViewMediaFragment`
with all its dependencies, including many that are not useful for
viewing Mastodon media attachments.
This pull request moves most ExoPlayer initialization and configuration
to a new Dagger module, and instead a `Provider<ExoPlayer>` factory is
injected in the Fragment so it can create new instances when needed.
The following ExoPlayer components will be configured:
- **Renderers**: all of them (audio, video, metadata, subtitles) except
for the `CameraMotionRenderer`.
- **Extractors**: FLAC, Wav, Mp4, Ogg, Matroska/WebM and MP3 containers,
to provide the same support as Firefox or Chrome browsers. Other
container formats that are either image formats (already covered by
Glide), not web-friendly or reserved for live streaming are skipped.
- **MediaSource**: only progressive download (through OkHttp) is
provided. Live streaming support using protocols like RTSP, MPEG/Dash or
HLS is skipped, because Mastodon servers don't use these protocols to
download attachments.
The Mastodon documentation mentions the [supported media formats for
attachments](https://docs.joinmastodon.org/user/posting/#media) and this
covers them and even more. The docs also mentions that the video and
audio files are transcoded to MP4 and MP3 upon upload but that was not
the case in the past (for example WebM was used) and it could change
again in the future.
Specifying these components manually allows reducing the APK size by
about 200 KB thanks to R8 shrinking.
There are also a few extra code changes:
- Remove the code specific to API < 24 since the min SDK of the app is
now 24.
- Add support for pausing a video when unplugging headphones.
- Specify the audio attributes according to content type to help the
Android audio mixer.

Using saner defaults for R8 while reducing the app size even further.
- Add Kotlin compiler options to skip adding assertions in release
builds
- Remove `optimizations`, `optimizationpasses` and `dontpreverify` rules
that are ignored by R8
- Only keep runtime annotations by default. If other attributes are
needed by a specific library, these will already be provided by the
library rules (for example Retrofit or coroutines)
- Remove the obsolete rule allowing a View to reflectively call any
arbitrary public Activity method accepting a View as argument. This has
always been a bad practice and is not used in this project anyway
- Remove the rules related to enums. R8 already optimizes enums properly
out-of-the-box and keeping these rules may prevent some of these
optimizations
- Add support for the `@Keep` annotation. Even if it's not currently
used in the code base, it can be handy in the future
- Add a missing rule to prevent generic signature of `NetworkResult`
class from being removed in `MastodonApi` so Retrofit works
- Allow obfuscation and shrinking of `kotlin.coroutines.Continuation`,
matching the rule defined in the next release of Retrofit
- Remove the rule forcing the removal of `String.format()`. This method
is actually used in the code (and in third-party libraries) for other
things than logging so forcing its removal can do more harm than good.
This pull request removes the remaining RxJava code and replaces it with
coroutine-equivalent implementations.
- Remove all duplicate methods in `MastodonApi`:
- Methods returning a RxJava `Single` have been replaced by suspending
methods returning a `NetworkResult` in order to be consistent with the
new code.
- _sync_/_async_ method variants are replaced with the _async_ version
only (suspending method), and `runBlocking{}` is used to make the async
variant synchronous.
- Create a custom coroutine-based implementation of `Single` for usage
in Java code where launching a coroutine is not possible. This class can
be deleted after remaining Java code has been converted to Kotlin.
- `NotificationsFragment.java` can subscribe to `EventHub` events by
calling the new lifecycle-aware `EventHub.subscribe()` method. This
allows using the `SharedFlow` as single source of truth for all events.
- Rx Autodispose is replaced by `lifecycleScope.launch()` which will
automatically cancel the coroutine when the Fragment view/Activity is
destroyed.
- Background work is launched in the existing injectable
`externalScope`, since using `GlobalScope` is discouraged.
`externalScope` has been changed to be a `@Singleton` and to use the
main dispatcher by default.
- Transform `ShareShortcutHelper` to an injectable utility class so it
can use the application `Context` and `externalScope` as provided
dependencies to launch a background coroutine.
- Implement a custom Glide extension method
`RequestBuilder.submitAsync()` to do the same thing as
`RequestBuilder.submit().get()` in a non-blocking way. This way there is
no need to switch to a background dispatcher and block a background
thread, and cancellation is supported out-of-the-box.
- An utility method `Fragment.updateRelativeTimePeriodically()` has been
added to remove duplicate logic in `TimelineFragment` and
`NotificationsFragment`, and the logic is now implemented using a simple
coroutine instead of `Observable.interval()`. Note that the periodic
update now happens between onStart and onStop instead of between
onResume and onPause, since the Fragment is not interactive but is still
visible in the started state.
- Rewrite `BottomSheetActivityTest` using coroutines tests.
- Remove all RxJava library dependencies.
This way the `FOREGROUND_SERVICE_REMOTE_MESSAGING` permission is not
needed and we should be able to publish on Google Play again. Drawback:
The service can get killed after a while (usually 3 mins) on Android 14.
I also tried using [user initiated data transfer
jobs](https://developer.android.com/about/versions/14/changes/user-initiated-data-transfers),
but that is not available on all api levels, and `WorkManager`, but that
is a huge refactoring and sending would probably work differently than
before.
