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
Previous code depended on, but did not initialise, the androidx
splashscreen library.
Fix that, using the library on API < 31, or the platform implementation
otherwise.
`SplashActivity` is no longer needed, launching goes straight in to
`MainActivity`.
Version 1.2.0-alpha01 is needed to fix some theme corruption bugs in
earlier versions of the library.
Previous code always included the transitionKind enum as an extra, and
could cause a crash if the activity launched by the intent was not a
Pachli activity.
Fixes#700.
Previous code used a single animation type (slide) when transitioning,
the transition was quite slow, and didn't behave appropriately if the
device was set to a RTL writing system.
In addition, handling the back affordance didn't work well with the new
"Predictive Back" feature in Android 14
(https://developer.android.com/guide/navigation/custom-back/predictive-back-gesture).
Fix this.
## Transitions
To update the transitions the `startActivityWithSlideInAnimation()`
implementation (and associated `finishWithoutSlideOutAnimation()`) have
been replaced.
There are three transitions; `default`, `slide`, and `explode`,
represented as an enum passed to the activity intent.
The `default` transition is the activity transition from Android 14,
from the Android open source project
(https://cs.android.com/android/platform/superproject/+/android-14.0.0_r18:frameworks/base/core/res/res/anim/;bpv=1).
This is used for most transitions.
The `slide` transition is the pre-existing slide transition, with a
shorter transition time so it feels more responsive, and an RTL
implementation. This is used when there is a strong spatial component to
the navigation, for example, when going from:
- a status to its thread
- a preference menu item to its subscreen
- a filter in a list to the "edit filter" screen
- viewing your profile to editing your profile
The `explode` transition is used when the state of the app changes
significantly, such as when switching accounts.
Activities are now started with `startActivityWithTransition()` which
sets the intent and prepares the transition. `BaseActivity` checks the
intent for the transition type and makes further changes to the
transition as necessary.
## Predictive back
"Predictive back" needs to know what the back button would do before the
user interacts with it with an `onBackPressedCallback` that is either
enabled or disabled. This required refactoring some code (particularly
in `ComposeActivity`) to gather data ahead of time and enable/disable
the callback appropriately.
## Fixed bugs
- Back button wasn't stepping back through the tabs in AccountActivity
- Modifying a filter and pressing back without saving wasn't prompting
the user to save the changes
- Writing a content warning and then hiding it would still count the
text of the content warning toward's the post's length
## Other cleanups
- Use `ViewCompat.setTransitionName()` instead of setting the
`transitionName` property
- Delete the unused `fade_in` and `fade_out` animations.
- Use androidx-activity 1.9.0 to get the latest predictive back support
library code
- Show validation errors when creating / editing filters
Previous code showed a small icon for account media that the user has
hidden.
Now determine the correct size / aspect ratio for the media and use that
to compute the placeholder (either a blurhash, or the link colour for
consistency with the view on a timeline).
Fixes#513
Once desugaring is enabled it needs to be enabled for up/down the
dependency chain, so enable it in the shared configuration defined by
the build convention code.
Highlighted a failing test that wasn't being run, so fix that too.
Some users report that Pachli is not retrieving/displaying notifications
in a timely fashion.
To assist in diagnosing these errors, provide an additional set of tabs
on the "About" screen that contain information about how Pachli is
fetching notifications, and if not, why not.
Allow the user to save notification related logs and other details to a
file that can be attached to an e-mail or bug report.
Recording data:
- Provide a `NotificationConfig` singleton with properties to record
different aspects of the notification configuration. Update these
properties as different notification actions occur.
- Store logs in a `LogEntryEntity` table. Log events of interest with a
new `Timber` `LogEntryTree` that is planted in all cases.
- Add `PruneLogEntryEntityWorker` to trim saved logs to the last 48
hours.
Display:
- Add a `NotificationFragment` to `AboutActivity`. It hosts two other
fragments in tabs to show details from `NotificationConfig` and the
relevant logs, as well as controls for interacting with them.
Bug fixes:
- Filter out notifications with a null tag when processing active
notifications, prevents an NPE crash
Other changes:
- Log more details when errors occur so the bug reports are more helpful
- Use format strings so any overhead of building the string is only
incurred if the message is actually logged
- Pass throwables as the first parameter so they are logged with the
stacktrace
Release builds normally strip out all logging to reduce the number of
disk writes and reduce UI jank.
These logs would still be useful in user error reports from orange
builds. To preseve them:
- Implement a simple `RingBuffer`.
- Create `TreeRing`, a `Timber` `Tree` logger that logs to a
`RingBuffer` instance in orange release builds.
- Create `TreeRingCollector`, called when ACRA reports are generated,
which includes the contents of the ring buffer in the report.
- Enable desugaring to allow the use of java.time libraries on older
Android versions.
- Disable ProGuard obfuscation of class names as the obfuscation adds
additional de-obfuscation steps when handling error reports from users.
