Previous code passed the actionable status, so "Open boost author"
actually opened the account that posted the original status.
Pass the status representing the boost, so the correct account is
opened.
Fixes#1042
Users report that copying items can be difficult using Talkback.
Make this easier in the dialogs that appear for links, mentions, and
hashtags by using a dedicated adapter that displays a "Copy" button at
the end of each item.
Fixes#1038
Previous code checked the item was a `StatusViewData`, which is not true
for notifications, and meant the links, mentions, and hashtags
accessibility features were not available.
Change this to `IStatusViewData`, which notifications do implement.
Fixes#1037
Previous code only inflated the timeline fragment menu if swipe/refresh
was enabled -- a hold over from when "Refresh" was the only menu item.
There are other menu items now, and they were also hidden. Fix this by
always inflating the menu.
Provide two new lab preferences for controlling the layout and content
of main navigation tabs.
Tabs can now be justfied to start, end, or fully (if room). Start/end
justification may put the tabs closer to the user's fingers, depending
on how they hold the device. Fully justified uses the full width of the
tab bar (if the tabs don't require scrolling).
The content can be set to one of:
- Icon only (previous behaviour)
- Text only
- Icon with text beside
- Icon with text below
Fixes#336
Previous code didn't send the language to ComposeActivity when editing a
scheduled status so it always appeared to be dirty. This prompted the
user to save/discard changes when backing out, even if they hadn't made
any changes.
Fix this by collecting the language code when fetching scheduled posts
and passing it in `ComposeOptions`.
Previous code accepted the `scheduledAt` value as a String, and kept it
as a String (including when serialising as part of a draft). Then it was
converted to an actual Date for display.
Refactor to keep it as a Date for as long as possible. Moshi decodes
Dates correctly over the network, and the database is configured to
serialise Dates as Longs.
This necessitates two migration steps to preserve any existing
`scheduledAt` values for drafts. The first step adds a new column to
store the date as a Long and copies over existing data. The second step
replaces the old column with the new column.
For some users this feature has too many false positives, particularly
when emojis are used.
Provide a preference that enables/disables the feature, default to
"enable".
When the user is prompted the dialog has a third "Don't ask again"
option. If chosen the preference is set to prevent future prompts and
the status is sent as-is.
Fixes#893
GoToSocial servers don't support scheduled posts; they return the wrong
type, and this can cause a loop of posting.
The GoToSocial bug to implement scheduled posts is
https://github.com/superseriousbusiness/gotosocial/issues/1006.
Fix this by adding a new server capability for scheduled post support,
using it for most servers, and disabling it for GoToSocial.
If scheduled post support is not available for an account:
- The "Scheduled posts" menu option is not shown.
- The scheduling button (clock) when composing a post is hidden, so the
user cannot set scheduling parameters.
Fixes#963
The MaterialTimePicker library has a bug that results in the "Cancel"
and "Ok" buttons on the dialog being cut off.
See
https://github.com/material-components/material-components-android/issues/3584
Work around this by updating their layout params and explicitly setting
the "bottomToBottom" constraint to their parent.
This wasn't acting as a preference.
It presented as a switch. If the user toggled it some notification
settings were changed for all accounts.
It wasn't clear what was changed, and if the user changed some of those
settings back the switch position did not change (it couldn't, you
couldn't meaningfully represent a partial change using a single switch).
Since the user has full control over the notification filters on a
per-account basis remove this "preference" to reduce confusion.
Fixes#935
Seen the following crash in user reports:
```
com.google.android.gms.common.api.ApiException: 17:
API: ModuleInstall.API is not available on this device.
Connection failed with:
ConnectionResult{statusCode=SERVICE_INVALID, resolution=null, message=null}
```
Doesn't appear to be properly documented anywhere I can find. To work
around this catch exceptions when checking for MLKit modules or
installing them and return defaults.
Previous code assumed the active account could always be determined from
the account manager.
This causes a few problems.
1. The account manager has to handle the case where there is no active
account (e.g., the user is logging out of the last account). This meant
the `activeAccount` property had to be nullable, so every consumer of
that property either used it with a `let` or `!!` expression.
2. The active account can change over the life of the UI component, for
example, when the user is switching accounts. There's a theoretical race
condition where the UI component has started an operation for one
account, then the account changes and the network authentication code
uses the new account.
3. All operations assume they operate on whatever the active account is,
making it difficult to provide any features that allow the user to
temporarily operate as another account ("Boost as...", etc).
This "ambient account" was effectively global mutable state, with all
the problems that can cause.
Start to fix this. The changes in this commit do not fix the problem
completely, but they are some progress.
Each activity (except LoginActivity) is expected to be launched with an
intent that includes the ID of the Pachli account it defaults to
operating with. This is `pachliAccountId`, and is the *database ID*
(not the server ID) of the account. This is non-null, which removes one
class of bugs.
This account is passed to each fragment and any piece of code that has
to perform an operation on behalf of this account. It's not used in
most of those places yet, that will be done over a number of followup
PRs as part of modernising each module.
Previous code didn't encode v2 filter keywords, so created v2 filters by
first creating the filter with no keywords (one API call) then making
1-N API calls to add each keyword to the filter.
Fix this by adding a dedicated converter for the `NewContentFilter` type
that encodes it correctly so the filter can be created with a single API
call.
This necessitates moving some types around,
It's possible for some servers to return a conversation that has an
empty (or possibly missing) `accounts` property. In the previous code
this would crash trying to access an item in an empty list.
Fix this by handling the "no participants" case.
Fixes#971
The new anti-harassment features will add several different types of
filtering options through the UI.
To ensure there is no confusion, rename the existing "Filters" UI and
code to "Content filters" to accurately describe what they operate on,
distinct from new filters which will act on account metadata.
Fixes#926.
Previously, tapping a tab would jump to the top of the loaded content,
which might trigger a load of a fresh page.
Provide a preference to control this; the default is the current
behaviour, the user can also choose to discard the current content and
load the newest content.
Fixes#939
Update `DownloadUrlUseCase` with a parameter to specify the account that
"owns" the media. This is either the account that posted the status, or
the account being viewed (e.g., if downloading an account's header
image).
Add a new `DownloadLocation` enum constant to download to directories
named after that account.
Pass this information through at the call sites.
Fixes#938
Provde an `appTheme` property in `SharedPreferenceRepository` to manage
read access, simplifying calling code.
Update `PreferenceEnum.from` to check the `value` property of the enum
first.
Fixes#950
The existing code downloaded any attachments to the user's "Downloads"
folder. If the user is logged in with several accounts these downloads
will be mixed up together.
Fix this by adding a new preference that allows the user to specify the
downloads should be placed in a sub-folder per account, named after the
account.
To do this:
- Add an interface for enums that can be used as preferences, with
properties for the string resource to display and the value to store.
- Add `EnumListPreference`, a `ListPreference` that allows the user to
choose between different enum values.
- Add a `DownloadLocation` enum and preference key so the user can
choose the location.
- Add a `core.domain` module, with a use case for downloading URLs that
respect's the user's download preference. Use this use-case everywhere
that files are currently downloaded.
Fixes#938
Previous code showed any JSON-wrapped errors from notification fetches
as the JSON string, instead of the error message.
Fix this by switching to `ApiResult` and using the formatted error
message.
Fixes 937
Previous code saved the reading position of a fully visible status. But
there are situations where no status is fully visible.
1. The user is in the middle of viewing a status longer than the screen
height, and the top/bottom of the status are off the top/bottom of the
screen.
2. The user has scrolled between two statuses. Collectively they are
longer than the screen height, and the top of one status is off the top
of the screen and the bottom of the other status is off the bottom of
the screen.
In both cases the user's reading position was not saved.
In these situations use the ID of the status closest to the bottom of
the screen, even if not fully visible. This should ensure the user never
missing anything.
Fixes#936
Previous code used `Response`. Convert to `ApiResult` as part of the
work to implement anti-harassment controls, which will need to query the
user's list of accounts they are following.
Converting just `accountFollowing` wasn't practical, as all the methods
are called by a single function in `AccountListFragment` which expects
the return type to be the same.
In rare occasions the preview card text could overlap the image if the
image had a portrait aspect ratio.
This seems to be due to the use of the `with(...) {}` scope function and
Kotlin's interoperability with Java setters.
Replace this with code that explicitly gets and sets the layout params
to ensure they are set correctly.
androidx.media3 1.4.0-rc01 and above (at the time of writing) has a bug
that breaks shared element transitions with a `PlayerView` (see
https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/1594).
This can be worked around by setting `app:surface_type="texture_view"`.
This uses more power, but for the typical length of social media videos
this shouldn't be a problem at the moment.
Fixes#920.
Previous code used `filterIsInstance<Ok<UploadEvent.FinishedEvent>>()`.
This can fail at runtime with class cast exception because the type in
`Ok<...>` is erased so `filterIsInstance` was accepting any `Ok`
`Result`. Later attempts to operate on it as a `.FinishedEvent`
generated the run time error.
Fix that by explicitly checking the type of the `Ok` result in `first`
instead.
Previous code had a bug/typo, which meant the app the user was posting
from was not shown if the app did not have an associated website. But
the bullet separating the parts of the text was still shown, resulting
in a spurious dangling bullet.
Previous code didn't set the textDirection for the status content, so
the first para of RTL text might be rendered incorrectly.
In addition, mentions and tags weren't BIDI wrapped, so would appear as
"foo@" and "foo#" in RTL statuses, instead of "@foo" and "#foo".
Fix both of these issues.
Fixes#870
Two problems with the previous code when search filters were visible:
1. The link icon overrode the tint, so didn't appear correctly in dark
and black mode.
2. The horizontal scroll view had the wrong background colour in black
mode.
Fix both, by updating the icon and adding a new style for the scroll
view.
While I'm here remove an obsolete comment and tighten up visibility.
Fixes#875
Clean up the notification handling code and fix a lot of bugs, hopefully
without introducing new ones in the process.
Specific bugs discovered and fixed:
- The code that tried to sync notification filtering state between the
server and Pachli could fail, leaving things in an inconsistent state,
resulting in dropped notifications. Remove that code, do filtering
client-side.
- Logging out of an account would disable push notifications for all
accounts.
- If any account did not support push notifications then push
notifications were disabled for all accounts.
- If any account did not support push notifications the user was
prompted to log out of all accounts. Drop that entirely.
- The UnifiedPush library could get to a state where configuring the
notification mechanism would silently fail,
The preferences UI now has a section for notifications, showing:
- The Unified Push distributor in use (if any)
- A mechanism to change the distributor
- Per-account configuration and notification fetch details
- Battery optimisation state
General changes:
- Update to UnifiedPush library 2.4.0.
- NotificationFetcher.fetchAndShow() can now fetch a single account's
notifications, or all accounts, depending on data passed to the worker.
- Use ApiResult for `push/subscription` responses.
- Drop the "needs migration" terminology for the more specific "has push
scope", to make it clear what the issue with the account is.
Add a new set of preferences, "Lab experiments", to control features
that are under investigation and may never make it into the mainstream.
Add the first experimental feature, which reverses the order of the home
timeline, so posts are shown oldest first instead of newest first.
Byline changes inadvertently changed how the preview image is laid out,
breaking the "Image at start, info at end" variant.
Previous code did not always show the card description if the text was
present, fix that.
Previous code set a min-height, which is no longer necessary after the
other layout changes. But it meant that a preview card with a one-line
title, no synopsis, and a URL, was taking up too much vertical space.
Previous code displayed a large placeholder icon if there was no preview
image for a preview card.
This reduces the amount of space available for the actual preview text
(i.e., title and description) and did not convey additional information
in the limited space available on the timeline.
So remove it.
While I'm here simplify the PreviewCard layout and migrate to
ConstraintLayout.
