Switch back to using settings-specific listeners rather than the
SharedPreference listener.
Again, this is due to the need to decouple android code from settings.
It also allows us to fully obscure the details of what settings we are
actually working with.
Decouple the settings god object into feature-specific settings.
This should make testing settings-dependent code much easier, as it no
longer requires a context.
Make all list listeners operate on generic values.
Wanted to do this for awhile, but couldn't figure out how to get the
listener to work with sub-typed listeners until I learned what the in
keyword actually does. This removes a ton of type-checking boilerplate
that it's not even funny.
I actually have no idea how to go about decoupling the other music
loading errors from the "No Music" case without a very jarring user
experience, so I'm not doing it for now.
Split off parsing-related components from extractor into a new parsing
module.
A lot of these methods are used in non-extractor code, so it makes more
sense for them to not be part of the extractors.
The code that is really extractor-specific can remain within the
extractor files.
Rework some of the taped together ways context-dependent objects were
replied on in-app, such as removing redundant constructs and extremely
hacky lifecycle mechanisms.
Strengthen Auxio-style UIDs.
These UIDs now leverage SHA-256 hashes with null values now writing
themselves as 0 in order to avoid possible message collissions from
other value arrangements.
Implement actions for selections in the home view.
Play selected and shuffle selected have been removed for now until the
queue can be properly reworked
Remove childish wording/diatribes from the codebase that were added
when I was younger.
I'm an adult now. I have to make this repository at least somewhat
professional.
More miscellanious tweaks I can't categorize since I have no time.
It's mostly attempts at improving animation visuals an failing. Really
want to switch to material animations once I can finally get the things
working.
Animate the check mark and background change when a item is selected.
This produces a nicer UX overall. If possible, I'm planning to also
port this to the other indicators in ImageGroup, albeit doing that is
signifigantly harder.
Redefine the meaning of activation across the app to align with the SDK
documentation.
According to the documentation:
- Activation -> A permanent kind of selection initiated by the user.
This means playback states, item selection, etc.
- Selection -> A transient kind of selection that can be added or
removed without user input. This includes things such as playing
indicators.
Redefine usages of selection and activation across the app to align
with this.
Backport the code for full "Month + Year" dates to older versions with
the legacy Date API.
For the same of not missing bugs on newer devices, this is now what
will be used in Auxio.
Rework the music picker system to be a reactive, viewmodel-based system
instead of a janky UI system.
This should make it much easier to maintain and extend in the future.
Try to move multi-artist playback/navigation into a single function.
This function is really bad and is tacked onto the most convienent
location without much thought. I really wish to move this into the
ViewModel flow eventually, but I have no idea how to architecture
that. Oh well.
Add semi-complete support for multiple artists.
This changeset completely reworks the music linker to add the following
new behaviors:
1. Artists are now derived from both artist and album artist tags,
with them being linked to songs and albums respectively
2. Albums and songs can now have multiple artists that can be distinct
from eachother
3. Previous Genre picking infrastructure has been removed and replaced
with artist picking infrastructure. "Play from genre" has been retired
entirely.
This is a clean break to the previous artist model and may not work
with all libraries. Steps to migrate the music library will be added
to the changelog.
Resolves#195.
Combine validation into a new finalization routine that now
individually validates and in the future may finalize certain
fields that require linking to be properly created.
Keep changes when unshuffling and reshuffling the queue.
This quirk was a hold-over from the old queue system, and now it's
removed.
Note that sorting is still based on parent, and so sort orders might
remain somewhat wonky. I only see myself really tackling that come
gapless playback, as I have to remove that last vestige to get that
system working.
Merge DisplayMode and PlaybackMode into a new class called MusicMode.
Both of these datatypes represented similar things, and thus it's much
easier to make them the same datatype. Moreover, it makes the
forthcoming addition of the music selector much easier if the same
datatype was tied to the representation of music.
This commit also moves around things around the project to be slightly
more coherent.
Use CollationKey when sorting music instead of String isntances.
This makes sorting aware of accented characters while still preserving
speed. I would ideally want to extend this to the search view too, but
there is no contains command in CollationKey, so I must continue with
the normalization method there.
Refactor all Backend instances into a new package called extractor and
a new structure called "Layer".
Layers are no longer generalized into an interface. Instead, they build
on eachother in order to produce a correct output of raw songs.
One of these layers is a stub class to eventually implement caching.
This changeset also phases out the "Ignore MediaStore tags" setting, as
it is no longer needed.
