A small flexible radio app (Firebase test)

MaRadio Android App

A simple custom-made radio app for my personal use.

This app loads custom radio lists from Google Firebase's Real time Database, giving me the ability to edit add/delete/edit radio station within app without a reinstall or even a restart.

What's the point? I have made this in order to combine my favorite channels from Morocco, Denmark, USA, and France into one single app without having to use a large ad-supported alternative like Tune In. Obviously, there are a lot of radio apps out there (especially for android), but they all either come with preselected stations or they are a bit heavy and confusing for my simple personal use.

Side Notes:

• This is an Android app that can run on minimum SDK level of 16 (Android 4.1).
• You will need to supply your own Firebase credentials file (google-services.json) to run this app. Put this file in the app/ directory.
• All libraries used are open source. Find the list in the Gradle build file
• You will also need to setup a simple Real Time Database with the following document:

{
  "stations" : [ {
    "id" : 0, // ids, not used yet. But keep them unique anyway
    "imageLink" : "http://imageshack.com/a/img924/6642/QrFnnu.jpg", 
    "link" : "http://hitradio-maroc.ice.infomaniak.ch/hitradio-maroc-128.mp3",
    "subtitle" : "",
    "title" : "Hit Radio"
  }, {
    "id" : 1,
    "imageLink" : "http://imagizer.imageshack.us/a/img922/4797/MBdjcZ.jpg",
    "link" : "http://gold.ice.infomaniak.ch/gold-128.mp3",
    "subtitle" : "100% Gold",
    "title" : "Hit Radio"
  }]
}
