    Your awesome/quick/simple way for automation (One commit to distribution)

    Posted: 29 Jun 2020 02:01 AM PDT

    Hola Subredditroids !

    Hope you are all having a great Monday, I introduce to a quick recipe to automation, it can save you a lot of time searching, and implementing, it is a recipe that I have been improving for sometimes, but it have proved reliable for us in the Android team for the past 1.5 years, in a large old codebase.

    This recipe is a combination of two configuration files, for CircleCI and Fastlane, I have provided comments over the commands that I think could be a tricky a bit and not straightforward (Like how to manage files necessary for providing new builds that are not tracked in your VCS).

    Let me know in the comments if you need help or further clarification. Also I haven't added the testing execution commands, but the idea here is to give the fundamentals needed for a proper kickoff.

    I might update this configuration in the long term with more useful commands that can aid with the whole automation script (Publishing to google play, running unit/instrumentation tests, release notes management).

    If this seems beneficial to you, a star would be appreciated.

    CircleCI configuration: https://gist.github.com/OmarKRostom/cf15de83c41582f95814484984e2b440

    Fastlane configuration: https://gist.github.com/OmarKRostom/52fe6aae3a8cd26a28c93b21c763bde7

    Faster testing on Android with Mobile Test Orchestrator

    Posted: 29 Jun 2020 06:26 AM PDT

    Looks like Google is using BOT testing on updated APK releases

    Posted: 29 Jun 2020 06:55 AM PDT

    Came in this morning to see a number of crashes all from a 6.0 device with no funnel data on how they got to the screen. All in Activities all new crashes. Our activities require data in the intent to be passed to them. Of course we always pass it so we have poor to no error testing here. This is inherited code on top of all this fun.

    What the BOT does it look in Manifest and fires up each Activity individually. So most of them crash. I had this happen at a previous job using Microsoft's Hockey App so once I figured out what happened with the build I released Sunday afternoon I exited panic mode.

    Put a new ticket on the board to gracefully exit Activity if it is missing required data instead of crashing so we don't see this with every release.

    Really wish the app was single Activity + Fragment manager. Would have avoided this plus it would help with deep linking which is on our to do board as well.

    How do apps secure their authentication scheme?

    Posted: 28 Jun 2020 02:12 PM PDT

    I recently started learning about user authentication, so things like sessions, JWT, OAuth, etc.

    I noticed that for a lot of account based apps (mainly apps like Snapchat, Facebook, etc.) I'm never logged out on my Android device. I'm assuming they use a token based authentication scheme and if I'm never logged out does that mean the token never expires?

    Is it stored in local storage? Aren't there security concerns with this approach?

    I would like to hear your thoughts as maybe I'm misunderstanding this issue.

    Is there a documentation guide for writing comments in Kotlin on Android Studio?

    Posted: 28 Jun 2020 02:10 PM PDT

    I'm currently working on an Android app using Kotlin. When I used to write programs in Java on Eclipse, I followed this Javadoc guide for writing comments. I'm struggling to find a guide like this for Kotlin or a guide for writing comments in Android Studio. Does anyone know of anything similar to Javadoc that I should follow for creating an app in Kotlin? Or is there a general standard for how comments should be structured in Android Studio?

    A small take into clean architecture

    Posted: 29 Jun 2020 01:14 AM PDT

    After spending multiple years on a legacy project, now i got some free time to work more with the new android components and architectures.

    I'm looking for some feedback, because i would like to present this to my colleagues in order to start migrating slowly to view models, live data, a proper repository for data instead of a huge "manager", and other new android "goodies".

    As i mentioned, feedback is much appreciated.

    Thanks in advance :)

    App's Network Activity

    Posted: 28 Jun 2020 11:57 AM PDT

    I am a web developer with 0 knowledge about Android. On the web, we have the Network tab built inside browsers to record activity. How is this done on Android if I want to see the requests/responses from an app that is already running on my phone?

    For example, if I have an app that fetches a YouTube video and displays it. How can I view that request to the YouTube servers, and the response that returns?

    Thank you.

    User generated content

    Posted: 28 Jun 2020 11:48 AM PDT

    Is it possible nowadays to develop an app with user generated content? I mean if some user uploads copyrighted content and content owner files a DMCA notice then Google suspends app and you can't do anything. If it happens at website you just remove this specific content but this is not enough for Google.
