This commit uses the "Continuous Integration" GitHub Action, to run
tests for the Deno code, which is used by the Supabase functions and our
Docker containers.
This commit also adds a first test so that the `deno test` command does
not fail.
This commit fixes the conversion of HTML to plain text in the
description for an item. Until now it could happen, that the there was
no whitespace between some words after the conversion. This is now fixed
so that there is always a whitespace between words in the plain text.
This commit adds two improvements to the `ItemVideoPlayer` widget. These
improvements are:
1. The padding for the widget is now defined within the widget, so that
is must not be defined in the parent widget. With this change the
widget follows the styling of our other widgets like `ItemMedia`.
2. On iOS the quality selection had a large bottom padding, this is now
fixed, by using a `Wrap` widget instead of a `ListView` like we are
using in the other modal bottom sheets which are showing some
actions.
This commit adds support to add Lemmy RSS feeds to FeedDeck. A user can
provide the url of an Lemmy instance, the url of a community or of an
user.
The special thing of the Lemmy source in opposite to the normal RSS
source is, that we parse the provided link form a feed item, to check if
it contains a image, video or YouTube url, to apply some special
formatting.
The index was not reset in the `DeckLayoutSmall` widget, when the user
selected a new deck in the settings widget. This was caused because the
`DefaultTabController` was not rebuild after a new deck was selected, so
that the `initialIndex` value was not used.
This is now fixed by adding a `key` to the `DefaultTabController`, which
corresponds to the selected deck. This means if the user selects a new
deck in the settings the widget will be rebuild and the initial selected
tab will be the first one. If a user selects the same deck or switches
between the small and large layout the tab will be the formerly selected
one.
This commit adds a new "Continuous Integration" GitHub Action, which is
used to run the tests for the Flutter app (and later also for Deno).
This commit also adds a first test, so that the GitHub Action does not
fail.
This PR also removes the Visual Studio Code and Neovim configurations
from the contribution guide, since I'm not using it anymore and for that
I do not want to maintain it any longer.
This commit removes all blank lines in the item preview description, so
that we do not render a blank line as the last line. This was done to
improve the style of the item previews, which looked ugly when the last
line was a blank line.
Until now it was only possible to show the actions for an item by
pressing longer on the item. Now a user can also right click on the item
to display the actions which feels a bit more natural on desktop
devices.
On Windows and Linux it could happen that the audio playback for a
podcast wasn't stopped when the item details view for a podcast item was
closed.
This commit "fixes" the problem, by pausing the audio player, before the
widget is disposed.
This commit also fixes the condition when the background audio services
should be initialized in the `main.dart` file. Instead of the macOS
check, we checked for iOS twice.
The change introduced in #71 so that we can run the Android build in a
GitHub action, broke the `flutter build appbundle` command to build the
Android version for the Google Play store. This commit should fix this,
so that we can build the Android version in a GitHub Action and for
Google Play.
When using Medium as a source it is possible that the a lot of items
might be spam when following a tag. To reduce the spam, we filter these
items based on a word list and an calculated score. The score is
calculated by the number of words which are included in the title from
our word list.
When a Reddit post contained an image it was always rendered as table,
where the image was displayed in the left column and the author in the
right column. This looked very ugly in the app, so that we are now
removing all tables from the description of an Reddit post, so that the
image is rendered as large as possible and the author is displayed below
the image.
This commit improves the displayed subtitle in the details view of an
item. For that we have adjusted the `ItemSubtitle` widget to diplay next
to the source title, author and publishing time an corresponding icon.
We also increased the space between the items and we are using a `|`
instead of a `/` as seperator.
Instead of defining the icons for a source only within the `SourceIcon`
widget, the icons are now defined as extension for the `FDSourceType`
enum. The background and foreground colors are also defined within the
enum now. This allows us to access the icon of a source outside of the
`SourceIcon` widget and we only have to touch the `source.dart` file
when adding a new source type.
In the `getMedia` function for Medium, Nitter, RSS and Tumblr we checked
the content and/or description of an RSS feed entry for a media file,
but we didn't pass the string to the `unescape` function first, so that
we might missed some media files, because our regular expression were
not able to find an image.
Now we are using the `unescape` function before using our regular
expression to find the image, similar to how we are also applying the
`unescape` function before we save the item description.
This commit adds a new source type "pinterest", which can be used to
follow the post of an user or a board on Pinterest. To use the new
source type a user can select the "Pinterest" item in the add source
modal. In the form a user can provide the username or board he wants to
follow via FeedDeck.
In the corresponding Supabase function we then convert the input
provided by the user to an valid RSS feed url for Pinterest. This means
that we have to add `/feed.rss` for users and `.rss` for boards to the
Pinterest url.
Then we generate the source and items as for the other sources and reuse
the existing components to render the preview and details item. We had
to adjust the rendering logic for these items, to ignore empty values,
from which also other sources will benefit.
We have to add the "charset" parameter to the "Content-Type" header when
we return json from one of the Supabase functions, so that special
characters are properly decoded in Flutter.
Users can now provide the URL of a website instead of the url of a RSS
feed via the input field for the RSS source.
This is possible because we are now trying to get and parse the RSS feed
for the provided url as usual, but if this operation fails, we try to
parse the text as html, so that we can check if it contains a
"<link type="application/rss+xml" href="RSS_FEED_URL">" tag. If this is
the case we are using this value to try to get and parse the RSS feed
again. If it fails again we are returning an error as before.
This commit adds 2 new jobs to the existing "Continuous Delivery" GitHub
Action to test the build of the iOS and Android app.
For this we also had to adjust the "build.gradle" file for the Android
app, so that the test build in the GitHub Action is signed with dummy
credentials, since we do not provide the keystore properties.
Update the used Flutter version to 3.16.0 and all Flutter packages to
their latest version.
This commit also fixes all of the newly added analysis options and the
layout changes introduced with the new Flutter version (e.g. we have to
set the "tabAlignment" property in the "TabBar" widget).
All our forms were submitable via enter except the forms used to add a
new source to a column. This is now changed so that also these forms can
be submitted by pressing enter in a text field.
This commit adds a custom cache manager "CustomCacheManager" which is
used in the "CachedNetworkImage" widget. The custom cache manager is
required, so that we can adjust the stale periode of cached images. By
default the package used 30 days as stale periode, but for our use case
7 days should be enough and we can reduce the storage used by the app.
Note: We also fixed the "run.sh" script to work with devices where the
name contains a space.
This commit improves / simplifies the media handling within the app.
Until now we always had to provide the type of the media file (item
media / source icon) when we wanted to display it. This is now not
necessary anymore. Instead we always display the image from it's
original path when the url starts with "http://" or "https://".
Additionally we also check the platform to proxy the image request on
the web. If the image doesn't start with "http://" or "https://" we
always try to display the image from the Supabase storage.
For this we also adjusted the corresponding Deno function, so that we
check if the image starts with "http://" or "https://" before we upload
it to the Supabase storage. If this is the case we upload the source
icon to the Supabase storage. If the upload fails, we will use the
original path of the icon.
Last but not least this commit also introduces our own
"CachedNetworkImage" widget, which wraps the original
"CachedNetworkImage" widget. Our own widget will ensure that we use the
correct url for the image request, so that we do not have to use this
function all over the app anymore. Later this widget can also be used to
introduce our own cache manager.
Add some stuff to make the development with Neovim easier:
- Add a "deno.json" file, which is required by the Deno language server,
when working in Neovim to detect the "import_map.json" file.
- Add a "run.sh" script to easily run the Flutter app from the command
line.
- Add the "run.sh" script and an example for Neovim to the contributing
guide.
In the modal bottom sheet where a user can select the video quality the
dividers between the different qualities were missing. This commit adds
the missing divider, so that the modal bottom sheet looks similar to the
other modal bottom sheets we are using (e.g. sign out, account
settings).
The size of the modal bottom sheet to display images had always a max
width of 640px on large screens. This wasn't intended an the modal
bottom sheet should fill the whole screen. This is now fixed, so that
when a user clicks on an image in the details view of an item, the whole
screen is used to display the image.
It is now pissible to play YouTube videos on the native desktop clients.
To achieve this we removed the "youtube_player_iframe" package which was
used before to play YouTube video, but which only supported web, iOS and
Android as target platforms.
On the web we are now using our own implementation to render an iframe
with for the YouTube video.
On all other platforms we are now using the "youtube_explode_dart"
package to fetch the video urls for a YouTube video and then we display
them within our own video player (the "ItemVideoPlayer" widget which was
added in #51). We also decided to switch the package for the iOS and
Android implementation which already worked before, because we are now
able to play YouTube videos in fullscreen and we only have to maintain
an exception for the web implementation.
The "ItemVideoPlayer" widget now also supports multiple qualities of an
video via the "qualities" paramter, which allows a user to switch
between the different video qualities which are available for a YouTube
video. Last but not least the widget now uses our primary color for the
seek bar.
If a notification was related to a pull request the link we added to the
item didn't work. This should now be fixed, so that when a user clicks
on the item he is redirected to the correct pull request which is
associated with the item.
This commit also removes an unnecessary "console.log" statement.
Until now a user was always signed out from all devices when he clicked
on the "Sign Out" button in the settings. Now we will display a actions
modal bottom sheet where a user can select if he wants to sign out from
the current device or from all devices.
For this we pass the [SignOutScope] to the "signOut" function of
Supabase. if the scope is "local" the user will be signed out from the
current device. If the scope is "global" the user will be signed out
from all devices.
This commit improves the handling of tabs in the samll deck layout. We
are now saving the selected tabs index in the newly added
"LayoutRepository" so that we can reuse the selected tab when a user
switches between the small and large layout. We can now also set the tab
which should be initially selected in the large layout when a user
selects a column in the navigation rail. Last but not least we can also
reset the initial tab index when a user selects a new deck in the
settings, so that we always display the first column instead of the
column with the same index as it was selected in the previous deck.
The items of an RSS feed are now rendered better, to achieve this we did
the following changes:
- Remove leading and trailing whitespaces from the item description
which should be rendered.
- Check if the media file of an item is an SVG image. If this is the
case we will not add it to the "media" field in the database, because
currently the CachedNetworkImage widget can not render SVGs. If we
want to render them, we run into serious performance issue so we skip
them completly.
- Always assume that the content of an RSS feed contains HTML and render
them as plain text in the preview and as markdown in the details.
Since we also render images from the description now, we check if the
"item.media" image should be rendered. If the description contains an
image we do not render our own image. If the description doesn't
contain a image we render it.
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.
