Crash was occuring because the instance info hadn't been fetched, trying
to take the last item of an empty list.
To fix:
- Expose the instance info as a state flow, with a default. New instance
info is fetched whenever the active account changes.
- Do the same for the emojis supported by the server.
- Update call sites as appropriate.
- Mark `InstanceInfoRepository` as `@Singleton` so it isn't repeatedly
created causing fresh content fetches.
The tests needed updating to get this to work.
- Extract the network fake modules in to a network-test module so
multiple other modules can use them.
- Rewrite `InstanceInfoRepositoryTest` to use Hilt and use Turbine to
test the new flows.
Checking this showed cosmetic bugs in the About layout when instance
info is missing, clean those up.
`TabData` recorded the type of the timeline the user had added to a tab.
`TimelineKind` is another type that records general information about
configured timelines, with identical properties.
There's no need for both, so remove `TabData` and use `TimelineKind` in
its place.
`TimelineKind` is itself mis-named; it's not just the timeline's kind
but also holds data necessary to display that timeline (e.g., the list
ID if it's a `.UserList`, or the hashtags if it's a `.Hashtags`) so
rename to `Timeline` to better reflect its usage. Move it to a new
`core.model` module.
The replies policy controls whether replies from members of the list
also appear in the list.
Display the replies policy as three radio buttons when a list is created
or updated, and send the chosen replies policy via the API.
Default value if not specified is always "list", for consistency with
the Mastodon API defaults.
While I'm here:
- Ensure the list dialog layout is inflated using the dialog's themed
context
- Use a `TextInputLayout` wrapper around the list name in the list
dialog for better UX
- Simplify the dialog layout, use LinearLayout, and standard padding and
margins
If the user has tabs containing one or more lists, and any of those
lists are renamed or deleted then the change should be reflected in the
tabs.
To do that:
`MainActivity`:
- Re-create tabs whenever lists are loaded and there's a list in a tab
- Compare lists-in-tabs by the ID of the list when restoring the user's
tab, so that a list rename doesn't lose their position.
`NetworkListsRepository`:
- Update the user's tab preferences whenever lists are loaded, removing
tabs that contain lists that have been deleted, and updating the
list's title for lists that have been renamed.
Fixes#192
Previously to view a list the user either had to add it to a tab, or tap
through "Lists" in the navigation menu to their list of lists, and then
tap the list they want.
Fix that, and show all their lists in a dedicated section in the menu,
with a new "Manage lists" entry that's functionality identical to the
old "Lists" entry (i.e., it shows their lists and allows them to create,
delete, and edit list settings).
To do that:
- Implement a proper `ListsRepository` as the single source of truth for
list implementation throughout the app. Expose the current list of lists
as a flow, with methods to perform operations on the lists.
- Collect the `ListsRepository` flow in `MainActivity` and use that to
populate the menu and update it whenever the user's lists change.
- Rewrite the activities and fragments that manipulate lists to use
`ListRepository`.
- Always show error snackbars when list operations fail. In particular,
the HTTP code and error are always shown.
- Delete the custom `Either` implementation, it's no longer used.
- Add types for modelling API responses and errors, `ApiResponse` and
`ApiError` respectively. The response includes the headers as well as
the body, so it can replace the use of `NetworkResult` and `Response`.
The actual result of the operation is expected to be carried in a
`com.github.michaelbull.result.Result` type. Implement a Retrofit call
adapter for these types.
Unit tests for these borrow heavily from
https://github.com/connyduck/networkresult-calladapter
Additional user-visible changes:
- Add an accessible "Refresh" menu item to `ListsActivity`.
- Adding a list to a tab has a dialog with a "Manage lists" option.
Previously that would close the dialog when clicked, so the user had to
re-open it on returning from list management. Now the dialog stays open.
- The soft keyboard automatically opens when creating or editing a list.
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.
Many servers that claim to be Mastodon-API compatible are not, as
evidenced by the content they include in the responses to
`/api/v1/instance` and `/api/v2/instance` requests.
Work around the worst of the breakage by providing defaults or marking
some fields as nullable (with a default null).
Bugs have been reported against the relevant projects.
- 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
Continue modularisation by moving activities in the "About" feature to a
new `feature.about` module.
Implement `feature.about:
- Move `AboutActivity`, `LicenseActivity`, and `PrivacyPolicyActivity`
here.
- Update `markdown2resource` plugin to work with libraries
Implement `core.data`:
- Types and repositories used through the app
- Move `InstanceInfo` and `InstanceInfoRepository` here so they are
available to `feature.about`.
Implement `core.ui`:
- App-specific views, spans, and other UI content
- Move `ClickableSpanTextView` and `NoUnderlineURLSpan` here so they are
available to `feature.about`.
