Subscription feed didn't work #7

Had to delete and re-add book to get the latest version

gary-atkinson commented 6 years ago

I am still experiencing this too. I am not aware of anything wrong with the format of the feed file so this is possibly a bug with the Swift Playgrounds app.

This has been working for me, but just before I went away I got a corrupted feed message. @gary-atkinson could this be related to the org.microbit.etc to github.io ?

gary-atkinson commented 6 years ago

When you say 'this has been working' you mean you got a notification of a later version. I have never seen that.

I changed the references over from org.microbit to io.github last week so maybe that's why you got a corrupted message. However, this change made no difference on picking up an upgrade. I'm going to play with this further on my web host to avoid loads of commits to GitHub and I'll report back when I find something.

@gary-atkinson I'm not sure about notification: I got shown that there was new content in the feed, and I could download it. Slightly oddly, though, it added a new book not replacing the older one (so I got multiple copies).

gary-atkinson commented 6 years ago

I am seeing this too. It might have been expected when switching the identifiers around but I have never seen a 'replacement'. However, sometimes when developing I get messages about not being about to open a book because of edits I have made in the book. I am then told to 'reset' the book. Are Apple ALWAYS making copies to avoid this situation? I suspect we are working with relatively new code with Swift Playgrounds app and not everything has been completely thought through. I think it may be time to leverage my Apple contacts and get some feedback.

This still hasn't been resolved by Apple and their own books have this behaviour. Can we close this?
