(Work in progress) 🐾 📸 🧴 Replace the Open X Facts legacy apps

[teolemon]

• NOTE: This is different from 🐾 📸 🧴 OxF (Compatibility with Open Beauty, Pet Food and Products Facts) tracker #4543 (which is the bolder, next step to merge all apps, and get rid of secondary apps)

We currently have the following deployments:

Android

• Open Beauty Facts: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.openbeautyfacts.scanner
• Open Pet Food Facts: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.openpetfoodfacts.scanner
• Open Products Facts : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.openproductsfacts.scanner

iOS

• Open Beauty Facts: https://apps.apple.com/fr/app/open-beauty-facts/id1122926380

F-Droid

• Open Beauty Facts: https://f-droid.org/fr/packages/openfoodfacts.github.scrachx.openbeauty/
• Open Pet Food Facts: https://f-droid.org/fr/packages/org.openpetfoodfacts.scanner/

Establish a feedback loop by deploying clones to Android internal listings and Apple Testflights of Open Beauty Facts

Beta Give feedback

   P4 🐾 Open Pet Food Facts 📸 Open Products Facts 🧴 Open Beauty Facts +4
2. Add icons and visuals for all variants to the source code

Ensure the Dart package behaves well

Beta Give feedback

1. Ensure that when the base URL is on openproductsfacts.org we don't crash on lacking nutrition, ingredients… (that shouldn't actually be an issue)

Tweaking core app behaviors based on a forced project type

Beta Give feedback

1. Add a DEV mode switch to return a force project type for all products for testing/development purposes ( "off", "obf", "opf" and "opff")
2. Override Open Food Facts mentions by Open X Facts based on project type
3. Change the base URL based on the DEV mode project type

Tweak the app to handle multiple project types at the same time

Beta Give feedback

1. Database migration to add a project type to all current products in the local database ("off")
2. Add a project switcher to history (based on project type "off", "obf", "opf" and "opff")
3. Add a project switcher to search (and store the type on each product opened "off", "obf", "opf" and "opff", and for any search we store locally)
4. Add a project switcher to scan (and store the type on each product scanned "off", "obf", "opf" and "opff")
5. Disable customization completely for other projects (not much value to bring to the users, and to save development time)
6. We probably do not need to add anything to lists (as they can potentially contain items from any project)
7. Disable Eco-Score and Nutri-Score display in Search results / ListView if project != off

Product page

• Effort should be limited thanks to the fact that knowledge panels are the server's responsability
• Attributes are only deployed to "off" and "obf" at this time.

Product page tasklist

Beta Give feedback

1. Make local Open Food Facts specific behavior conditional to the product type
2. Disable the "Update nutrition facts" button on "obf" and "opf"
3. Disable the "Compute nutrition facts" button on "obf" and "opf"

Adapt strings

Beta Give feedback

1. Create a file per project to override the text strings where relevant (eg mentions of Food, mentions of Open Food Facts)

Edit mode

Beta Give feedback

1. Disable "Nutrition" section in full edit mode on Open Beauty Facts ("obf") and Open Products Facts ("opf")
2. Override icons (fork and spoon icon for categories on opf, obf, opff to an edit pencil)
3. Override texts ("Ingredients & origins" >> "Components" for OPF)
4. Compare to category should invoke the right search type, in line with the product type
5. Add Period after Opening support for Open Beauty Facts (obf)

Assets

Beta Give feedback

1. Add logos, icons for Open Beauty Facts, Open Products Facts and Open Pet Food Facts
2. Add sample products for Open Beauty Facts, Open Products Facts and Open Pet Food Facts
