vampidroid's Issues

Show more info in the card details screen

Today, if you don't have the card image, you can't see a lot of information about the crypt and library cards, like the vampire capacity, blood/pool cost, set/rarity etc...
Add those and other information to the details screen.

Improve about screen design

Improve about screen design.

Better filters and card images

I already talk about it with you Francisco, is just a remember. I think you can improve cards filters and add image support.

Update copyright and trademarks text string

With the update in #65, a new copyright text was added in the readme file. Update the string used in the about screen of the app to contain the same text.

Update cards database to Lost Kindred expansion

Add Masika Advanced

From Storyline Rewards 2015

Change app typography

Card name font is being changed to Amarante and Roboto for extra info in card lists as well as card details content.

Convert ViewModels to use the Architecture Components

Current viewmodels are ordinary classes. Make them integrated with the new Architecture Components.

Improve search of cards name and text to allow parts of the words

When filtering cards by name/text, it should be possible to search for parts of the words. Today, only whole words are searched.

Filtering icon color should reflect filter options of the current tab only

Today, filtering icon color is changed when a filter is applied.

The problem is, if you apply a filter to the crypt tab and change to the library tab, although there is no filter applied to library cards, the filter icon still indicates that there is a filter applied.

This confuses users as they may think there is a filter applied to the library cards when in fact the filter is being applied to the crypt cards.

Thus, the filter icon color should reflect if there is a filtering being done in the current tab.

Crash when long pressing a deck in the decks listing

When the user long presses a deck in the decks listing, the application crashes.
It should show the list of options to do with the deck ( 'Remove deck' actually ).

This crash was reported in the google play crash reporter.

Thanks the user who reported it.

Add Favorite cards support

Search with capital letters is not working

If you try any search using a capital letter, for example, A, the search returns nothing.

Fix getAllCryptCards() test method in CardsRepositoryInstrumentedTests

With update #65, the number of crypt cards has changed.

Update test to reflect that.

When any filter is applied, both crypt and library lists are refreshed

Only the affected list should be refreshed.

Add zoom capabilities when viewing card image

In card details activity, after you tap the card image, the full card image is shown. But there is no zoom capabilities.

Expanded state of some filters are not persisted between screen rotation

If the "Crypt Disciplines", or "Clans" or any other expandable filter is expanded, this state is not persisted between screen rotations. If they are open before screen rotation, they will appear closed after rotation.

Can't select text from card text in card details screen

It would be nice to be able to select text from the card text inside the card details screen. Today this isn't possible with a long press over the text.

Add support to load images hosted in a remote server

Instead of only showing images from local folder, it would be nice to be able to specify a URL where the images could be loaded from.

This way the user wouldn't need to copy the image files manually.

Make filters expansion panels more Material Design Components conformant

Add animations and adjust padding

Add PagedList (paging) support

Today, when starting the application, all the data is loaded at once to populate the crypt and library list.

With PagedList support, the data can be loaded on demand which would avoid loading all of it when the application starts

Remove auxiliary file used to update cards database after updating

The auxiliary file used to update the cards database is left behind after the update process taking space needlessly. Remove it after the process.

Study the possibility of migrating the database from SQLite to Realm

This would make the code simpler because we wouldn't need to work with sql directly.

Performance improvements could be achieved by this migration.

Update cards database to Danse Macabre extension

As asked by @GiottoVerducci in #1 (comment) we should update our cards database.

Update cards database to The Anarchs Unbound expansion

The Anarchs Unbound expansion was released on January 17, 2016.
Update cards database to include the new cards.

More info about this release:

Filtering help is not scrollable

Olivier Lachapelle wrote:

I got a problem with your app on my Android. when i look for help to know what are the abreviation for searching i cannot scroll to know all abreviation.

This means the text doesn't fit inside the window. A possible solution is to put the text inside a ScrollView

Add View low profile support to dim the system bars

This would allow a better immersion of the app

Update cards database to Anthology expansion

http://www.vekn.net/card-lists/370-anthology

Thanks Tiago Uchôa, for the heads up.

Add card details info slide animation

Add slide animation to the card details info.

Add fast scrolling support to card lists

As of today, there is no way to scroll the list in a fast way.

When the filtering drawer is open, if the back button is used, the application exits

It should just close the filtering drawer instead.

Thanks Leandro Cesar for the heads up.

When scrolling the card list, sometimes the filter panel on the right appears stopping the scrolling

After specifying a card images folder, the card list still show previous images

The list should be refreshed with new images (if any). Today, you have to scroll the list to show the new cards, or restart the app.

Thanks @Sydnelson for the heads up.

Improve preference screen theming

Make the preference screen use the material theming.

Show complete card name when the name is longer than screen width

When the card name is longer than screen width, an ellipsis is shown at the end of the string instead of showing all the content.

The card name should be shown in full.

Show card image when tapping on thumbnail in cards list

When clicking the card image thumbnail inside the card list, show the card image instead of opening the card details screen.

Suggestions

Define different sets of filters to Library and Crypt;
In card text details expansions info and card rarity are missing;
In Library card text details, card costs and requirements are missing;
In Crypt card text details, group and clan/creed are missing;
Add a filter to powers, flight, maleficia and striga (I think it can be added together the disciplines);
Add a 0/ANY option to groups filter;
Add a requirements filter with things like: Independent, Anarch, Sabbat, Camarila, Laibon, Black Hand, Infernal, Imbued, Red List etc;
Add a title filter with: Justicar, Titled, Regent, Prince, Bishop, Liaison, Magaji, etc;
Add a custom filter with user defined string.

A good feature to be added is clarifications, rulings, and errata text to each card like in http://www.vteschecklist.com/ website.

Unnecessary data request when restoring instance state

When the app instance state is being restored, inside onRestoreInstanceState(), many requests to get filtered data are being made.

Those calls are made by the callback in the cardsfilter widget. This callback is invoked for each change in the checkboxes used for filtering. And those checkboxes are changed when their state is being restored from a previous instance.

Implement Room support

Today, database access is done manually through direct calls to sqlite api.
Change this code to use Room as much as possible

Add support to share card text

Remove unused files from project

There are a lot of unused layout and class files in the project. Remove them.

In About screen, show the git sha of the commit the release is based on

As of v2.0-beta.1, only the tag name is shown. There is no trace of the sha commit.

Improve app start performance by inflating CardFilters widget asynchronously

App start, rotation and restoring from background is slowed down because CardFilters layout takes a lot of time to inflate. Use AsyncLayoutInflater to inflate the layout asynchronously.

Show cards count in the tab title

This gives a visual feedback about how many cards are in the list.

Convert png files to webp

Now that Vampidroid has a minimum sdk of 14, convert all the .png files (discipline files) to webp. This will help reduce the size of the application and memory usage.
