    Releasing Open Source Lib via Jitpack vs MavenCentral

    Posted: 21 May 2021 04:22 PM PDT

    Nowadays it seems like Jitpack and MavenCentral are some of the most popular ways to release an open source library. Jitpack is also seen as the easier way to release a library.

    My question for you folks is whether there is a benefit to releasing via MavenCentral vs Jitpack. For the extra effort of trying to release a library on Maven will your library be more accessible to potential users? Does it make your library appear more "official"?

    LocalBroadcastManager not working in Kotlin?

    Posted: 22 May 2021 04:20 AM PDT

    In Java it works but the same doesn't work at all in Kotlin & the sendBroadcast method of LocalBroadcastManager returns false. I have double checked everything. The docs says use live data but how to use it in cases like updating ui from firebase?

    Anyone else experience completely broken deep links on Android 12?

    Posted: 21 May 2021 02:16 PM PDT

    I updated my day-to-day phone to Android 12 this week, once the beta went live. Soon after, I noticed that all the deep links that work totally fine on <= Android 11 don't work at all on Android 12. My deep links are backed by my site's `well-known...` json file, and tend to be designated with wildcard domains (*.host.com) in order to support our staging environments.

    On Android 12, I'm not seeing any indication that my app is receiving an intent, nor am I even getting a disambiguation dialog, links are just resolving straight into a browser.

    I know that Android 12 comes with some more restrictions about disallowing "trampoline" deep links, but I've got activities that handle deep links directly (though a single trampoline-link experience to decode encoded deep links), but nothing seems to be going to them. Anyone have any insight/ideas about this?

    Any really free screenshot generator for the play store?

    Posted: 22 May 2021 02:10 AM PDT

    Meaning one that allows you to add a phone frame to a screenshot, as well a 7-inch tablet frame and a 10-inch tablet frame. Also I need to be able to choose the dimensions of the frame so that the screenshot which is 16:9 will fit in it.

    Ability to add text to top or bottom of the screenshot would be awesome but not needed (I can add the text manually in a photo editor).

    Ability to translate said text into many locales would also be awesome but not needed (tho if it's possible I would really appreciate it).

    Should I send an update to Play Store everytime when change codes In-App Purchases Project?

    Posted: 22 May 2021 01:28 AM PDT

    I created new project and this project is empty ( such as default when create without add Permissions or Play Billing library ) and I exported APK and uploaded it to play store ( open testing )

    ​

    I did that because I want to start learn Play Billing ( In-App Purchases )

    ​

    The question is when I change anything in code should I send an update to store for test it everytime?

    ​

    Please could someone explain to me I am very confused

    Some questions about Play Billing

    Posted: 21 May 2021 06:58 PM PDT

    I started to learn Play Billing and I have put simple buttons inside my app like remove ads ( Non-consumable product ) and buy points ( Consumable product ) etc... and I followed documentation.

    ​

    But I have many questions about Play Billing.

    ​

    The Questions

    ​

    1. Do I need add com.android.vending.BILLING permission in manifest? Because I found this one in Google Play Billing Library 1.0 Release.

    ​

    Embedded billing permission inside library's manifest. It's not necessary to add the com.android.vending.BILLING permission inside Android manifest anymore.

    ​

    1. Is it necessary to setup Configure Real-time developer notifications?

    ​

    1. Why this library asking us add license key like this bp = new BillingProcessor(this, "YOUR LICENSE KEY FROM GOOGLE PLAY CONSOLE HERE", this); but in offical documentation google doesn't asking us to provide license key, Why?

    ​

    Thank You.

    Suggested alternative App Stores

    Posted: 21 May 2021 12:51 PM PDT

    My company's app has recently been taken down from the Play Store due to the background location policy. We're working to update it, but management has asked for alternative stores that we can publish on as a backup plan.

    Aptoide and UptoDown look decent but I'm curious how the developer experience using them is, or if there are any other stores that are good to work with.

    This is an enterprise app, so we're not looking for acquiring new customers, just an easy way for our customers to get the app and keep them updated with the latest version.

    Any recommendations would be appreciated.

    Edit: I should also note that the app is free to download, and they subscribe to out SaaS outside of the apps, so in-app payment services don't need to be considered.

    Invalid Warning? Updating an androidx lib to an alpha version.

    Posted: 21 May 2021 11:37 AM PDT

    Android studio is warning me to upgrade the androidx.work:work-runtime library from 2.5.0 to 2.6.0-alpha02.

    It seems over-the-top to warn about updating from a stable version to an alpha version.
    I can understand if it was a release candidate or even a beta at most.

    Any suggestions?

    Are there any launchers other than Taskbar which can be configured to force-open all apps in freeform mode?

    Posted: 21 May 2021 10:48 AM PDT

    (-OR- Can I retrofit an open source one to do it?)

    I think a million Android versions ago (N maybe?) you could set the entire OS to load apps freeform, but I either forgot how to do that, or it was taken out.

    On something like the Fold, I can use my apps with an on-screen trackpad and a floating keyboard and a bunch of little windows, and I'm happy with my portable PC experience.

    But... Taskbar sucks. It has a lot of instability, and locks horns with Samsung's One UI. It's also slow if you have >300 apps.

    Really, the only reason I use it is because it auto launches my apps into freeform windows.

    So! Is there any other launcher that I can configure to forcibly window my apps?

    (Is there a command line flag I could forcibly compile into a launcher, perhaps?)

    Thanks!

    [Study] How you validate fields in MVVM architecture and notify the user?

    Posted: 21 May 2021 11:31 AM PDT

    Hi,

    I do not find any example in the architecture components repo's or in any example repo from the community.

    Let's assume you have a view where you fill up a model, with a push of a button you have to validate the model and then save it, let's say room or Firestore. How do you handle the validation and how you notify the user that a field is mandatory. (Example method from my code)

    private fun isTripModelValid(): Boolean { return userModel.run { !email.isNullOrEmpty() && !password.isNullOrEmpty() }

    }

    Much appreciate guys!
