New streams notifications #2335

Koitharu · 2019-05-09T18:06:41Z

Checking and notifying about new streams from subscriptions
Closes #719 closes #1086

I carefully read the contribution guidelines and agree to them.

Redirion · 2019-05-10T07:05:45Z

cool!
a nice addition to that feature would be to be able to select the channels for which I want to receive notifications similar to the "bell" feature in Youtube.

Koitharu · 2019-05-10T09:33:53Z

Ok, I'll do it. Also I have a question to the community: how is better to mark, which streams are already "known" at channel?

Stypox · 2019-05-10T19:19:14Z

I think a video should be marked as "known" after it has been opened (in any way: background, info, popup...). An option to manually mark a video as known would be useful, too, then.

ShareASmile · 2020-03-29T06:56:53Z

Ahh.. Waiting for live stream notifications for so long..

Edit:
Now as proper feed implementation by
#2309
has already taken place, this new stream notification should be next big feature to make into this marvellous app The NewPipe.

Flam3z · 2020-04-02T09:50:36Z

Definitely would love to see this feature as the next big thing as well :)

Koitharu · 2020-04-11T18:27:55Z

What about merging this PR? I`ll resolve conflicts and migrate to androidx WorkManager

@nv95: That's good. Please use vector drawables for the new icons though (and test that it doesn't cause a crash on Android API 19). Note that there were some major changes to the subscriptions in v0.19.0.

Imho the notifications should be opt-in though.

I don't know if it was the case but it's now opt-in

B0pol

I've seen you have to subscribe to notifications via settings -> notification -> channels

Please add the notification button in channel header too, it's way more user-friendly.

And add a subscribe to all button in notification settings.

B0pol · 2020-05-10T19:09:43Z

Also, why is it leading to channel info instead of video info?

Stypox

Some icons unfortunately can't be converted to vector drawables because they are used in notifications, which require bitmaps. But there are still some issues with icons.

_{Btw @wb9688 how were you able to rebase this while being sure not to create problems even in mid commits? I tried a while ago, but there were so many conflicting commits that trying to understand what the author was doing in each one of them (i.e. the purpose of every piece of code) seemed impossible}

Maybe it would be better to put this in the NotificationHelper class, so that is can then be accessed from anywhere. In the future we could e.g. want to long-press on a subscription to see the option for notifications and this function would be needed.

If this is a Builder, can't you do this? Also, maybe create the style beforehand, so that you can add the .setStyle() and .setContentIntent() at the end

builder.setContentText is used for collapsed notification, style applied for expanded

You should use an attr icon here, so that it can be styled according to themes automatically. Also, why is the name of those icons not ic_notification_on_white_24dp? So, in the end you should have 4 icons (ic_notification_on_white_24dp, ic_notification_on_black_24dp, ic_notification_off_white_24dp, ic_notification_off_black_24dp)

What reasons to use different icons if we can use one icon with tint?

I pushed a commit making some small changes. The code looks good, now it just needs testing. I will be leaving notifications on on my phone with my subscriptions database for a while.

After two days everything still seems to be up and running

Removed some non-translatable strings and just hardcoded them in the code, like it's being done for other string separators. This also deduplicates some code by using Localization. Used some Kotlin feature to reduce code.

It never kicked in since we are never returning a retry() Result, but always either success() or failure() (see createWork() function). Also, there is already a default (exponential backoff starting from 30 seconds), so no need to override it.

Stypox

Merged and fixed conflicts
Added a commit removing the backoff criteria completely
Added a commit that makes the "Player notification" entry searchable in settings. I don't mean the settings contained within player notification, as those were already searchable, but rather just the button in appearance settings that brings you to player notification settings: it is now searchable.
I tested for a few days on my phone (a couple of weeks ago) and notifications worked fine.
I tested again now on the API 19 and API 30 emulators and notifications worked. Also other things this PR touched worked, such as settings, subscribing to channels, feed, etc.
Code was reviewed by all of us and now looks good.

I would merge this, finally :-D

Note for after this is merged: create a PR that removes both the ic_notifications and ic_pin icons in the drawable-night folders, as the way icons work has been changed. I will not do this in this PR since ic_pin is unrelated.

Update Database Wiki page

@TobiGr or @litetex could you take care of that? I don't know what should be updated (just the screenshot of an inspected database?)

litetex · 2022-03-20T16:47:31Z

@Stypox @TobiGr
Not sure how the graphic is built is there a manual somewhere?

Stypox · 2022-03-20T17:29:09Z

I think you can view it if you inspect the app's database of a running app, but I never did that

Stypox · 2022-03-26T20:41:12Z

@TiA4f8R could you point out here the issues you found with new streams notifications?

AudricV · 2022-03-26T20:50:00Z

These are not really issues but improvements (I didn't test deeply the feature):

show the avatar of the channel when selecting channels to recieve subscriptions;
in the notifications, be able to click on a specific stream to open it instead of being redirected to the channel itself;
(maybe) show a bell icon to enable/disable notifications at the right of the subscribe button, like on YouTube, instead of showing a snackbar.

litetex · 2022-03-26T21:01:06Z

@Stypox

I created the follwoing database-diagramm with https://dbeaver.io/ (FOSS):

Feel free to update the wiki if you feel like this is correct.
