@MarkG_108 said in How should I set up my environment for developing?:

I tried, from way 0, to run the script

i've just updated the script, i made a mistake regarding volume mapping if you want to see any files under your home directory... ( don't need to rebuild the image though, only the sh script)

@poVoq Yes this is the easiest way to do it.
If you search for the first release of my app this is what I used.

But I had a limitation regarding self signed certificates.
So I decided to create a C++ library to send HTTPS requests.

Thanks for sharing your findings ; could be helpful for other 🙂

@Flohack Yes the overall system seems quite easy, but the devil lies in the details. Starting from scratch would be reinventing the wheel when there are those nice existing NodeRed nodes. But they reference further NodeJS libraries and while all of that is probably not a big deal for an somewhat experienced Javascript developer, I am somewhat lost looking at it 😕

@The_Cougar_Kid Okay another dekko click in your inbox, which seems to work on first sight.

@poVoq lol good point...if i get some time this weekend i'll fork the repo and take a look on my machine.

Hi @supaiku! Your question is pretty broad, but lets try... Other ways of contributing to apps than writing code:

reading code 😛 - some tasks like creating developer documentation, only needs you to read and understand the code helping with design creating art work like app icons making mock ups for new apps taking administrative burdens from developers by managing issues for example (being the maintainer of an app you know very well is possible without knowing how to code) help testing of course by joing the ubports qa and test telegram group or: more structured tests were nice in some cases, but someone would need to create that (infra)structure, either by creating and managing test tables, which are filled by testers or by setting up more advanced test managing systems (i.e. see http://www.systemtestportal.org/) translating apps maybe you find enough app devs around you to host a hackathon

There are several libraries with QT bindings for Go out there. As a matter of fact clickable already provides a code template for writing Go apps for Ubuntu Touch. It uses @nanu-c's fork of another project.

I am also interested in this, as I am currently working on a wrapper to bring ConverseJS (XMPP client) to UT.

Looking at this repo: https://github.com/florisluiten/rssreader/

There seem to be some built in UT styles:

<link href="/usr/share/ubuntu-html5-ui-toolkit/0.1/ambiance/css/appTemplate.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" /> <script src="/usr/share/ubuntu-html5-ui-toolkit/0.1/ambiance/js/fast-buttons.js"></script> <script src="/usr/share/ubuntu-html5-ui-toolkit/0.1/ambiance/js/core.js"></script> <script src="/usr/share/ubuntu-html5-ui-toolkit/0.1/ambiance/js/buttons.js"></script> <script src="/usr/share/ubuntu-html5-ui-toolkit/0.1/ambiance/js/dialogs.js"></script> <script src="/usr/share/ubuntu-html5-ui-toolkit/0.1/ambiance/js/page.js"></script> <script src="/usr/share/ubuntu-html5-ui-toolkit/0.1/ambiance/js/pagestacks.js"></script>

But they look a bit unfinished. Given that it says version 0.1, I am wondering if there is maybe a newer version available by now?

Edit: This seems to be similar: https://youtu.be/g5pD3b87bC4

Edit2: this seems to be the latest version and Ubuntu seems to have stopped including this in distributions later than 16.04. So for now it will work, but I guess once the switch is made to 20.04 these will need a new maintainer.

@AppLee Thank you AppLee for notifying me. Yes, indeed I'm stil working on it and I'm focusing on the UI right now. I will release very soon an update, which will bring the ability to set thresholds and get notified when a threshold is overcome. For any request, please follow the link to the thread AppLee highlighted before, instead than replying in here, to avoid fragmentation.

It's time for a small bugfix release, but this one does add some needed features as well.

1.6.6 (2019-11-16) - Added option to add password protected feeds. Implemented new podcast player with styling support. General UI improvements and bug fixes (see CHANGELOG for details).

Hoping to start adding translation support for the next version.

🙂 Thank you, @dobey. I'll feed that information back.

Sportify works flawlessly with Mopidy on UBPorts. It's not the easiest to set up but it is worth it.

Hi arubislander,
Thank you for your reply.

I did find requests on Github about the sorting possibilities on the name. I followed your advice and joined the ongoing requests => https://github.com/ubports/address-book-app/issues/12#issuecomment-552354416

It would be a great pleasure to help of implementing the features but I have not the skills to do it, unfortunately.

About my remark about the impossibility of exporting the address book, I just discovered that it is actually possible. I apologize for the mistake.

@MarkG_108 you created the app correctly. After the talk clickable got updated and that template got better feedback.

So: congratulations!

@jezek Thanks! There it is in application-legacy-morph-browser-.log

Thanks. I always liked these stickers, more than these stupid emoji "I like it", compare here both:

@poVoq the repo is available on Gitlab 🙂

@arubislander might be better and be able to convert it to work with the modular launcher, its more or less a scope replacement option.
