Included in F-Droid

[gbakeman]

It would be great to see this project included in the F-Droid repository. Among other things, this would make Tivi more accessible, you can show off screenshots of the app, and test versions can be quickly deployed.

I don't think that this is going to work unfortunately. There are a number of 'secrets' (client IDs, API keys, etc) which are part of the GitHub Actions build, and not committed to the source repo.

@chrisbanes Would it be possible to attach the signed apk in the release section with each new tag please?

[chrisbanes]

Woops, my bad. I already have this setup as an automated action but I haven't been publishing the draft releases. I'll make sure to do it from now on.

Other apps give users the possibility to add own API keys in the settings.
Wouldn't this be a possibility here as well? 🤔

PRs welcome!

Oh, in case you're open to such a solution it would make sense to reopen this issue, doesn't it?
This would likely increase the possibility that someone knowing Kotlin would find this issue.

What do you think?

[chrisbanes]

Probably better to open a new issue. This is about pushing F-Droid, not the ability to set your own API keys

[IzzySoft]

Is there any chance for a more detailed description (what about the app offers, what to expect from it), and maybe some screenshots? While the API key requirement and Firebase are show-stoppers for F-Droid.org, your app might qualify for my repo until it's ready to meet F-Droid's stronger criteria. Inclusion with my repo was even requested already.
