Is the app still maintained? #38

Open RichyHBM opened 4 years ago

RichyHBM commented 4 years ago

Hi, I have seen various comments from a year ago talking about testing v2.3, but having just downloaded and built it it seems to crash as soon as you try to open the sync settings

Uh oh, that's not supposed to happen...

So,that's a hard question. Short answer, yes. Long answer, no. I started rewriting the UI and everything, but then Google announced Jetpack Compose and I got in the middle of it. If I finish the rewriting now, I'll need to rewrite it again in a few months when compose gets stable. So I stopped developing and I'm currently waiting.

Ok thats good to hear, I wanted to look at wether we could use JSoup to do #27 but maybe I should wait either till compose is out or 2.3 is out?

The error I was getting was due to kindPick being null

bernaferrari commented 4 years ago

So... that's more related to back-end than front, so it is unlike to change when Compose arrives. Regarding JSoup, feel free to take a look.

This is a proof of concept, I dont want to call it the implementation as I dont know if I have covered all possible avenues but hopefuly gives a good view on how to do it. https://github.com/RichyHBM/ChangeDetection/commit/50dec8a04175bc7c4d6125bc340891f7e2e863ef

bernaferrari commented 4 years ago

That looks really good. Do you have any sample on how it should work?

RichyHBM commented 4 years ago

EAsiest way would be to use something like https://time.is/ and put time#clock as the selector. Or I guess div#dd for an element that changes less often
