runtime-android/sync-gdb-in-background missing res folder

[doneill]

I am trying to update the sync-gdb-in-background android demo, beyond adding the gradle wrapper and updating the ignore list there are references to resources but the res directory is missing. I can try to piece together a res file based on what the project needs, but best if we can introduce a proper res folder.

I've resolved icons, styles, but the strings will be an issue :-)

Hey @doneill,

Thanks for using my sample! This is the string resources I am using:

<resources>
  <string name="app_name">BackgroundSyncGeodatabase</string>
  <string name="sync_notification_title">Portal View</string>
  <string name="sync_updating">GDB Sync in Progress</string>
  <string name="sync_done">GDB Sync Completed</string>
  <string name="sync_failed">GDB Sync Failed</string>
</resources>

I didn't include the res file so as to not bloat the repository with extra images and strings. I was worried I was sending too much data.

Are there some other items I can assist with in regards to this sample?

Hey @jgravois & @doneill !

The res file did not bloat the repository as much as I originally assumed it would. I went ahead and included it in pull request #239

Again, please let me know if there is anything I can assist with :space_invader:

Thanks @nohe427, Yes you should include everything to allow a developer to build the module. I updated the gitignore list which details the files that should not be included. I also added the gradle wrapper jar file and scripts, I know this repo explicitly ignores jar files but we need it such that developers do not need to have Gradle on their machine to run the demo. Google recommends this.

Hey no worries. If we could chat about what should be required for Android samples later, I would appreciate it On Jun 22, 2016 3:58 PM, "doneill" notifications@github.com wrote:

@nohe427 Merging that PR helped, but nothing is happening in the app. I will dig deeper into the app source but on start I get the following app screenshot:

@nohe427 So what is the user workflow? Do you need to sync a database from another app? Trying to verify this is working as expected.

[nohe427]

Hey @doneill , I think we resolved a lot of this offline. Do you still have lingering questions here or can this be closed?

Thanks, @nohe427

[doneill]

Thanks @nohe427, yes you can close as resolved. Thanks!
