It is now possible to play videos from toots within FeedDeck. For that
we are using the "madia_kit" package, which is already used for the
Podcast player on Windows and Linux.
The videos from a toot are saved within the "options.videos" field of an
item next to the "options.media" field. In the "ItemDetailsMastodon"
widget we are then checking if this field is present and contains a list
of video urls. These urls can then be played via the "ItemVideos"
widget.
We have to add in-app purchases for the iOS, macOS and Android store, so
that users can also get the premium features of the app without using
Stripe for payments.
The in-app purchases are only enabled when a user uses the app with the
default Supabase environment or with the Supabase environment provided
during build time. If a user uses his own Supabase instance, he will not
be able to upgrade to the premium tier via in-app purchases.
We are using RevenueCat for in-app purchases, which automatically sends
all the events for a user to the "revenuecat-webhooks-v1" edge function.
Depending on the received event we can then upgrade / downgrade the
users profile. To be able to use RevenueCat as an additional provider to
Stripe we also had to add a new "subscriptionProvider" provider column
to the "profiles" table, which stores the information via which provider
a user upgraded his account.
The settings page now contains an info section, which is used to show
the current app version via the "package_info_plus" package, the link to
our website, the link to our GitHub repository and the link to our X
account.
