Not although it advances very slowly... 😞

It's on my wish list, but there's still no attempt at implementation..

Thanks,
and regards..

Mabe try to contact the author of https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=it.niedermann.owncloud.notes&hl=de ? Hopefully they're interested supporting quicknotes.

[stefan-niedermann]

@thomasfrobieter that's me :) But i am much more interested in solving #26 which would solve this issue, too.

[matiasdelellis]

Hello everyone..
In the last release, add a basic api, which would be the starting point of an application. I don't have the capacity to do it, but I could gladly help you with it. 😄

Note that this is relatively similar to the official notes API, but I won't be able to match it, due the attachments, and tags, which make it conceptually different. (And on the other hand we use html instead Markdown. 😅 ).

Well... This is only a starting point, 😉

[hardwareadictos]

Wow really nice!!! Just discovered this project, so powerful!! Ler me know if you need a tester :D

Making a multiplatfor app (Windows and Linux maybe) with something easy like Proton would be awesome also. Should make this app awesome for Personal and Work proposes!

Hi everyone,

Although I had some experience in java/android, I never ever started a project from scratch ... 🙈
Taking advantage of free time due to the excessive quarantine in my country, I guess I can try to learn something .. 😅

Well, I'm basically following this Youtube tutorial (Thanks @haerulmuttaqin)..

• https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vh92eSAEu5c

... but adapting it to the Android-SingleSignOn library from Nextcloud.. 😬

It is probably very simple for users' expectations, but at least I hope to get a basic application to start and later improve ..

I don't know how far I can advance in this project (There are many things that I don't even consider yet..), but I'm so happy with so little that I wanted to show you. 😄 🎉

[stefan-niedermann]

@matiasdelellis awesome! We have a Telegram group for users of the SSO lib - if you are interested, let me know, we can provide support for SSO integration. Current group members are the maintainers of the Deck, Notes, News and Bookmarks android app.

[matiasdelellis]

Wow @stefan-niedermann

Thank you.
Soon I will ask for your help .. 😬

My current doubt with the library is that I would like to make a singleton class to manage the calls, but I still hope to learn more basic things about android development.

I was just thinking that it would be interesting to do a basic project, that interacts with the tutorial application. If I can continue, I will probably do something about it, but I will surely contact you first.

[matiasdelellis]

Wow..
I had some problems with the libraries since I am using androidx unintentionally, and then also with retrofit responses context but it's working .. 😬

[stefan-niedermann]

Feel free to open issues in the SSO repository if you have concrete questions - if you want to join the Telegram group, just send me your phone number via eMail (info@niedermann.it) 🙂

[matiasdelellis]

Well... Needless to say, how basic the application is, and how little tested is. 🙈
I insist on how basic it is. For my part consider it just a good starting point for the application. but if you want to see your notes on the phone it will serve you very well. 😉

But if someone wants to play for a while. Welcome to try ..

Thanks to all,
Regards,
Matias.

Some updates... 🎉

• Save the configured user.
• Search inside the notes.
• Filter by tags, shares and starred notes. Still can't filter by colors. Soon. 😬
• Styles improvements.

Of course, it is worth saying that it is a 100% test version. 🙈

[survivor303]

Im very impressed for this work! 🥇

wauwau. When we get image support? :)

[matiasdelellis]

Hi @survivor303

When we get image support? :)

Viewing attachments could be implemented soon. However, attaching new images to notes may be more difficult. Something similar now happens with rich text. We can visualize it, but when we save the notes we lose all the format. 😞

I have to find the right libraries for these tasks. 🤔

To clarify the current state, these are the current limitations:

• It only implements edit the title, content, and color. if you save a note, you will lose attachments, tags or shares.
• It can display the HTML quite well, but if you save a note, you will lose the formatting.
• It only works with the Nextcloud client installed. I don't expect to create a custom login!.
• It works 100% online, without any type of cache.

The next steps..

1. Ensure that attachments, shared, etc are not lost when notes are saved. Easy. I did not do it before for lazy. haha. But the rich format will have to wait.
2. Show that extra information in the main view.
3. Show all extra information in the edit note activity as read only..
4. Lots of fixes, which I deliberately ignore to advance on other things. 🙈

Just with these points, I would be happy to publish a preliminary version. 😉

[matiasdelellis]

Just a couple of updated screenshots .. Part of points 2 and 3 done.
Note that the attachments still not displayed, and if you save the note still lose the format, tags, etc. 😞

[matiasdelellis]

With the last commit, you don't lose any information beyond the format when you save the notes. 😬

[jancborchardt]

@matiasdelellis very cool work! :) We have a Nextcloud Talk instance with a "Notes team" channel, where for example @stefan-niedermann, @korelstar, me and others hang out. I can invite you there (with your email address) if you like?

[matiasdelellis]

Hi @jancborchardt
Thank you very much for the invitation. Soon I will contact you, and also with @stefan-niedermann

Meanwhile I continue to advance in various things. In general I tell you that it costs me much more to deal with layouts, than with programming in general. 😅
Also in terms of programming, I am aware that I am ignoring a lot of important issues, which will remain for later. 🙈

With the last commits it implements the Grid view (Although the preference is not even remembered), and finaly the Rich text editing thanks to https://github.com/wordpress-mobile/AztecEditor-Android

List view	Grid view	Rich text edition

Well. most importantly, you don't lose any information when saving a note. However, you still cannot view attachments (They are not lost either), or tag notes or share them. 😉

Apk to test:

• https://github.com/matiasdelellis/nextcloud-quicknotes/suites/1186139352/artifacts/17403395

[matiasdelellis]

Some updates:

• Try to improve styles. Look at the quotes and numbered lists, or the android statusbar for example.
• Implement grid view.
• Implement sort dialog.
• Implement about acitvity.

About Activity	List view	Grid view	Sort dialog

I did a few experiments to see the attachments, but unfortunately I couldn't get it to work. 😞

p.s 2: Remember update to last release that I just publish.. 😉

[hardwareadictos]

Wooops, I ha e that nextcloud app installed 🤔

Seems it's not detecting it

Android 11 latest, on a Pixel 4

Using Nextcloud 20, app installs fine on the platform and seems to work (marked as not compatible with 20)

[matiasdelellis]

Hi @hardwareadictos

Using Nextcloud 20, app installs fine on the platform and seems to work (marked as not compatible with 20)

Still don´t install NC20 on any server yet.. Maybe next week.

It is strange since there are no major changes affecting this particular application. 🤔

Please. If you are sure that the application is working, let's check only the api.

matias@services:~$ curl -u user:password https://yournextcloud/index.php/apps/quicknotes/api/v1/notes

[{"id":2,"title":"Rich text","content":"\u003Cdiv\u003EYou have a rich text easily.
....
...
...}

[hardwareadictos]

curl -u user:password https://yournextcloud/index.php/apps/quicknotes/api/v1/notes

I made a insecure curl (as i have self signed certs) and it doesn't return anything, just a "[]"

[matiasdelellis]

Hi everyone,

Since last report:

• Dark mode, following the system theme. (It is not configurable within the application.)
• You can view attachments at least as read-only. This thanks to the help of @stefan-niedermann . Thanks agian.. 😄

p.s: I will block this issue leaving here just for reference, and from now on I await the reports in your repository https://github.com/matiasdelellis/nextcloud-quicknotes
