An Android app that helps notify low-income local community members about the free meal distribution events organized by the non-profit Berea Kids Eat in Berea, KY.

kidseat's Issues

Detail Activity for showing details of each event

Detail Activity is meant to show all the existing attributes related to each event. For example, images, comprehensive description, menu items, meal type, location, time, etc.

Map View for each event with a location pin

Based on the location details (e.g. latitude, longitude) of the event, the map view should have a marker on it for each event.

Implement Reset Password Feature

Implement this for the next release

Publish the app version 1.1

Remove log statements, update the version name and code, and generate an app bundle to publish on Google Play Store.

Make Add Event Fields Required

The following fields have to require an input:

1. Title
2. Date
3. Time

Add a back button to the action bar

Issue: Currently we do not have a way for the users to go back to the previous page. The only way they can go back is through their phone's back button.

Task: Add a back button to the action that takes the user back to the page they came from. As well as add a swiping that takes the user back.

Add more whitespace under the Save button

In AddEventActivity, there should be more whitespace under the 'Save' button. Currently, the button is too close to the bottom of the screen.

Refactoring the codebase

Refactor, where applicable, using Java language conventions. Some areas to address: variables and their names and visibility based on their types.

Retrieve/Create a List of Events

1. Retrieve data from Cloud Firestore
2. Create a RecyclerView for displaying a list of events
3. Display the data from Cloud Firestore in RecyclerView

Upload images to Storage and save the references to the images in Cloud Firestore

Images uploaded to Firebase Cloud Storage by an organizer should be referenced (i.e. link should be saved) in a corresponding document in Firestore.

Admin should be able to remove events

Change the app title to "Berea Kids Eat"

Make sure to update the name on Play Store as well.

Create Organizer/Admin Authentication

Use Firebase Authentication to enable organizers with permission to log in to their account through the app.

Highlight or Bold newly added events.

To show users what events have been added newly, highlight, and/or bold them. Just like in Gmail, when we receive a new email it is highlighted and bolded.

Display Meal Type in Event Details

We forgot to show the meal type in the detail activity. Needs to be added.

Change 'Sign In' and 'Create Account' button colors

Admin side: After updating an event redirect back to main page

Create a bottom navigation view

2 tabs: list view and map view of the events using fragments and bottom navigation view.

Make the app compatible with more devices

I think it may involve decreasing the API level to account for older devices

Implement a form to add events

An organizer/admin should be able to add events either in one or in multiple activities.

Display today's event on the map.

Currently, the map only shows events that after today (in the future). Change it to today and after today.

If no events to display on the map, show message

When the map is empty meaning no upcoming events to display, display a message saying that there are no events upcoming.

Start a CHANGELOG for the project

Create an organizer/admin activity

Organizer is someone who has the right to post events by logging onto their account through the app. Create an activity for the event organizers/admins to be able to navigate among activities for adding, updating, and removing events.

Removing images from Cloud Storage

Currently, when an admin deletes an event, the image associated with the event doesn't get removed. It is because the event information is removed from Cloud Firestore, however, there is no code to remove the associated image stored in the Cloud Storage. Each event document in Firestore has a field with a reference to its respective image stored in Cloud Storage. Using that reference, the image needs to be identified and deleted.

Implement pull-to-refresh on the list view

Users should be able to pull down to refresh the list of events.

Users can Sign-in and Sign out of the application

Implement a sign-in page and sign out button.

Redirect to main page after creating a new event

Improve the compatibility of the app to work on older devices

Add FB, IG links (icons) to the event details

This should be handled on the admin side. When creating new events, the admin should be able to add links to the event's posts on Facebook and Instagram.

Push Notifications - Attempt 2

Do more research on Android notifications and actually implement this time. Perhaps we could use Cloud Firestore triggers: https://firebase.google.com/docs/functions/firestore-events
