F-Droid can't build

[licaon-kter]

I guess Flutter needs to be bumped to 3.7.3 or so...

While polishing the recipe for that, we now scan the flutter cache too so...

2023-02-20 13:05:26,624 INFO: Removing Java JAR file at .pub-cache/hosted/pub.dev/signalr_flutter-0.2.0/android/libraries/signalr-client-sdk.jar

Hmm... 214e0c7

But... they have some .jars there? https://github.com/AS-Devs/signalr_flutter/tree/master/android/libraries

Where's the source? Are they even free or open-source?

Are you gonna host a server on Azure for that?

Why not UnifiedPush instead? https://f-droid.org/en/2022/12/18/unifiedpush.html & https://gultsch.social/@daniel/109630522775489629

/PS: any chance you could set Flutter as a submodule in your repo? It will erase the need to come and open MRs in F-Droid to fix it as you control the version directly

I updated my version of Flutter & removed the package in order to do a release soon so it should fix the build.
The SignalR package was used to communicate with Formula 1's servers during a session, as they use this technology on their website & mobile app. I will open an issue to know the source of the jar.
For example, the FastF1 Python package uses a SignalR client to retrieve data during a session.

I will look to add Flutter as a submodule, thanks for the helpful resources.

[BrightDV]

The submodule should be added by 9724db4. Is there any other configuration needed?

[licaon-kter]

Yes, recipe needs to be adapted.

Eg. https://gitlab.com/fdroid/fdroiddata/-/blob/master/templates/build-flutter.yml#L23

[licaon-kter]

I see no .flutter folder. Did you forget to add it to https://github.com/BrightDV/BoxBox/blob/main/.gitignore ?

I see no .flutter folder. Did you forget to add it to main/.gitignore ?

I messed up a bit with the submodule, but I reinstalled it, and now you can see the folder (c850272).

[BrightDV]

Yes, recipe needs to be adapted.

Eg. gitlab.com/fdroid/fdroiddata/-/blob/master/templates/build-flutter.yml#L23

In order to edit it, should I change the latest build data? https://gitlab.com/fdroid/fdroiddata/-/blob/master/metadata/org.brightdv.boxbox.yml#L123

I'm testing locally, brb

Resolving dependencies...
Because boxbox depends on flutter_localizations from sdk which depends on intl 0.18.0, intl 0.18.0 is required.
So, because boxbox depends on intl ^0.17.0, version solving failed.

next?

[BrightDV]

There are a lot of conflicts, I will add some packages in the repo directly.

[BrightDV]

You should be able to build the app now

[licaon-kter]

Builds and runs fine, will you tag a new release?

[bagajohny]

Is there any issue with F-droid? I am unable to install v0.50 from github because I already have fdroid version installed. And the latest version is not showing on fdroid.

[licaon-kter]

@bagajohny latest was not built and several past versions were disabled since they contained non-free codee

Future 0.5.1 will fix it...

[BrightDV]

Sorry, I was unable to release a version sooner...
I will follow the build to see if every goes fine, thanks for the help.

[BrightDV]

Whoops, little mistake.
This should be fixed now, a newer version of the syncfusion_flutter_pdfviewer was causing the crash.
I will try to run the same workflow as F-Droid before releasing a new version to prevent these issues.
Anyway, sorry for the problems ;)

The new release is published now!

Thanks https://gitlab.com/fdroid/fdroiddata/-/commit/18e57452a8a43a5d7b2d93b0641610631e9cc856
