ChromeOS support #18

Open jornane opened 4 years ago

jornane commented 4 years ago

ChromeOS supports the Google Play Store, so it makes sense to use the same app for Androi and ChromeOS. Currently, the app does not correctly configure eduroam on ChromeOS (tested by direct .apk import on a Developer mode device, as running .apk directly on a stock device is not supported)

I'm not sure what the problem is, my first impression is that it configured eduroam as an open network, but I might be mistaken. The "Configure" button appears to be unavailable for networks configured through an app. More work is needed.

We have investigated about adapt the current eduroam app to can configure networks in chromebook, but after of investigate a lot of options we have came to a point where we cant find a method to do that. We tried use the chrome API, but the problem is that the API that we need, only can be used in chromebooks with kiosk mode, then this havent sense for our app (you can look that here https://developer.chrome.com/apps/networking_onc). The motive because dont work the current code of android is because the Android SO is a container inside of chromeOS, and this only can communicate with the networks of chromeOS, but its cant set a new networks. Also we looked about do that in native code, but we cant see in the SDK some method to configure networks, so that we understand that isn't that the way either.
