trustroots/trustroots-expo-mobile

Basic mobile WebView wrapper for Trustroots.org

Travellers' community. Sharing, hosting and getting people together.

Maintenance mode

Trustroots is in maintenance mode.

No new features are being developed.

Our medium term plan is decentralisation thru the nostr protocol, see https://github.com/Trustroots/nostroots

We are also open to improvments that make trustroots forkable.

nvm & npm

We're using nvm to manage node versions.

• nvm use
• npm -g i npm@latest-7

It's important to use the latest version of npm v7 and not later.

Building for production

See deploy/docker. Run dockerBuild.sh. Then docker push the latest tags which are output as the last part of the dockerBuild.sh script.

Merging

Only use git merge --no-ff branch or the "Create a merge commit" option on GitHub. We don't want to delete any commit hashes. No rebasing or squashing.

We use the commit hash to track what was deployed when, so any of those operations can destroy that history, making it much harder to understand what code was deployed when in the past.

trustroots-expo-mobile's Issues

Send push notifications about new unread messages

Investigate getting push notifications multiple times

Proxy Android back button to WebView

Now pressing back button just closes the app.

Bundle an iOS version

Todo to get out a basic iOS app:

• Fix "back to map" button in safari Trustroots/trustroots#675
• Fix window.postMessage #11 (I think it simply tells the site that we’re on webview and the site will then hide some stuff — I can check later how critical it is)
• Check that we have at least a home icon on iOS dash (some generated icons here: https://github.com/Trustroots/media/tree/master/icons/ios/native)
• Get AppleId for Trustroots + developer account
• Generate store certs, backup them, backup them again
• Maybe setup push notifications but don’t let it become a blocker
• Send the app for review 🎉
• React to review feedback:
  • Hide Google Play store badges on iOS Trustroots/trustroots#1139
  • A mechanism for users to block abusive users Trustroots/trustroots#1467
  • Update rules Trustroots/trustroots#1468
• Re-send the app for review 🎉
• Send a newsletter to people who indicated they want to hear from us when the iOS app exists

Improve keyboard overlay on old Androids

Works fine on newer Android on emulator:

But on physical old Android 4.x the experience sucks.

Add to F-Droid if possible

F-Droid has a small but pretty dedicated group of users; https://f-droid.org/

Add APK download to the site

When clicking a new message notification, I'm redirected to the login page

It might make more sense to not send message notifications if the user is not logged in.

Add new release apk when releasing new version

Hi,

It would be great to add the new apk to http://apk.trustroots.org/ after updates, so I can add it in a timely manner to the F-Droid repo :)

Make app available on Play Store again

Somebody wrote us that the app can't be found in the play store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.trustroots.trustrootsApp

Do we know why it was removed?

Keyboard covers text composition field

Report froma user via Zendesk:

The biggest issue I've found so far is with the mobile app: while
composing a message the bar in which I'm writing doesn't shift up when
the keyboard appears, hence it is covered by it while I'm composing,
therefore I can't see and quickly correct typos and so on. It would make
the platform much more usable a correction on this feature.

Image upload does not work

Report from older Android v4 — needs testing if this affects newer versions as well:

Huawei G7-L01
Android Version 4.4.4

I just wanted to update my profile picture and had to do it in the browser version because the button to select a picture didn't work.

No Push Notifications for New Messages

I don't get any push notifications for new messages, meaning I have to constantly check the app to see if someone responded to a message. I am using a modern android phone (pixel 3). I would like to help fix this!

Handle URLs outside trustroots.org domain

Porting App to Plasma Neon, Ubuntu Touch, etc.

At the moment there's a lot of development in Linux UI's for mobile devices like Plasma Neon, Ubuntu Touch, Phosh, etc. Is there any way to port the existing app onto such devices. I understood that the app is based on expo, but to my knowledge this doesn't allow it to compile it for the aforementioned platforms. Have you already looked at the Kirigami framework which is based on QtQuick:

https://api.kde.org/frameworks/kirigami/html/index.html

This should also allow cross compilation for Android and iOS.

Error while executing the app on Android simulator, expo-permission moved api

When starting the app into the android emulator, using expo-cli, after a clean setup, it throws an error saying the API permissions were moved to another package: expo-permissions.

Blank screen on iPhone 4s

Reported via Zendesk

The main problem is that [...] trustroots doesn't work on our [iPhone 4s]. When we try to access the website the page stay white. We have an iPhone 4s and we try with a lot of different navigator but the problem stay.

Shoots "push notifications enabled" each time app is started
