R&D download before start first open

[riderx]

TO have the same behavior as Burger king app

We could use a wording like : 'We are optimizing your app experience'

[meilechwieder]

This is R&D for auto-update, note for manual is it's already possible.

Hello, I'd like to work on this issue :)

[riderx]

Hi @Alcadeus0 that awesome ! please feel free to ask here any missing info

[aazam-gh]

@riderx How do I reproduce this issue?

[riderx]

@Alcadeus0 you can use the demo app:
https://github.com/Cap-go/demo-app

Acceptance criterial:

• updated should be download and apply at first launch
• a loader is visible while the download happen
• works both in ios and android
• no code duplication

[aazam-gh]

@riderx running npx cap verify gives me

why isn't the pod being found?

[riderx]

this command run from the CI and in local, did you run the command in the root folder?

[aazam-gh]

yes I'm running in the root folder, maybe that's why

[riderx]

mmm ok sorry, you have to have the package manager cocoa pods and use a mac.
This task is pretty hard, good knowledge in ios/android is recommended.
plus you have to understand capacitor env

[aazam-gh]

@riderx i see that's understandable. I use Ubuntu so it won't be possible even if i decide to use a vm with mac OS. You can un-assign me from the issue

[riderx]

I can grant you of half the price if you find a solution in android

[aazam-gh]

Sure, I'll give it a shot

Hi @meilechwieder,

Regarding your earlier comment:

This is R&D for auto-update, note for manual is it's already possible.

If you have a moment, mind sharing more details how you currently do it manually?

[ayewo]

Here goes nothing while I /attempt #72 .

Hey @ayewo I made half of this working, it's done in IOS, I still have some issue in Android.
Have you something on your side ?
Maybe we can join forces

[ayewo]

Hi @riderx

Maybe we can join forces

You've already done 50% do I really have a choice 😀?

Since you've coded the iOS implementation, perhaps you could share it so I can translate it for Android.

[riderx]

I'm sorry, I really needed it, and a shower showed me the way ^^.
I just finished the Android part as well 5 min ago.

So the bounty in this state is not available anymore.
I would more now try to battle test it, and be sure this work 100% of the time.
Can you help on that ?
I can do 100 bounty for this

[ayewo]

Haha @ shower thoughts 😁

Sure. I updated the capacitor-related dependencies for the demo-app from v4.x.x to v5.x. and will share that later.

Is that what you used for initial testing.

[riderx]

i use prod app but you can use this one too

Hey Martin @riderx,

Testing on iOS and Android ended up taking quite a bit of time ... I think some refactoring and/or some unit tests will be useful—especially for the partial download feature—as I ran into some scenarios where some bundles were failing to delete.

Miscellaneous Issues

• On Android, I did get the occasional A resource failed to call release so there's a resource leak somewhere.
• The CLI seems to output an invalid URL at the end of a bundle upload. Towards the end, it will offer the following 404 URL https://web.capgo.app/app/p//logs in its output (or maybe I don't have authorization to see it?):

●  Check logs in https://web.capgo.app/app/p//logs to see if update works.
│
●  Welcome onboard ✈️!
│
●  Your Capgo update system is setup
│
●  Next time use `npx @capgo/cli@latest bundle upload` to only upload your bundle
│
└  Bye 👋

[riderx]

I think you are right i never tested end to end local env so that could be broken, if you need time to fix it i can do bounty for that

[ayewo]

The demo app worked on both iOS and Android in my testing. Had to fix a minor logic bug in the demo app (the Splashscreen was shown too quickly, an if block never got called) and fixed a minor bug in the iOS plugin.

For the miscellaneous issues, I can open a separate ticket for them later as they’ll require time for me to investigate and fix them.

Right now, I’m trying to complete the work I started on #119 so please accept the PRs I opened for this issue:

• fix(ios): set error flag to false for non-error actions #242
• chore(deps): update capacitor dependencies from v4.x to v5.x demo-app#29
• feat: update capacitor dependencies and automatically update on first open demo-app#30

Thanks!
