Facebook / Sharing APIs #73

Open mopsal opened 8 years ago

mopsal commented 8 years ago

Opening this issue for us to review the Facebook and other sharing APIs in the Android code base. We need to verify that the code is still working, or if it is not then the next steps to either restore the functionality or remove the sharing options from the app (not preferred).

I can confirm that last years app has functioning social media buttons.

I am still trying to get the emulator to work. I may need to run the tests on an actual device to speed things up. If we cannot get the Facebook API to play nice with Gradle, we may want to use something like AddThis ( http://www.addthis.com/ ) to facilitate the social sharing.

Matt, are you using adb or genymotion?

To use genymotion, you just have to sign up for a free account and download a personal use genymotion. Install genymotion plugin in android studio by going to settings or preferences and choosing the plugins option. Then choose browse repositories and type in search box genymotion. Adb takes wins to install. Genymotion also used virtual box which you must also install, as it is used to launch the android emulators. When u install genymotion there are two apps the genymotion and the genymotion shell, install both. Then when you have both virtual box and genymotion installed, click genymotion and click add button then choose the android version and install it. Then when you run your android app, make sure emulator is on and running as android studio will give you both as choices to run, just choose the emulator from listed options, and bam.

Hope this helps.

Thanks Dima. I'll look into Genymotion because adb takes forever to load the emulator.

I was able to install an .apk created by Android Studio onto an actual device, and the social options are indeed still working. The Schedule tab unfortunately is not loading any information at this point in time.

What is your device brand? I might be able to pinpoint the issue by running it in an emulator.

I will actually likely be able to apply all necessary changes fairly soon, see if they work on my machine. Question, what cinequest version are you running, could you give me the git you using? On Jan 11, 2016 5:16 PM, "Matt Opsal" notifications@github.com wrote:
