Improve the black theme selection color by merging it with the dark
theme selection coler. This makes the selection color both more
noticable and reduces the style complexity that came from having to
manage two different selection colors.
ExoPlayer's online functionality will cause the library to request the
ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE permission. We don't need this since we use
ExoPlayer for local playback only. For simplicity [and to remove a
weird suspicious permission, we just disable it]
Update the README to update the current state of Auxio, uodate the
ADDITIONS document to reflect which features have been rejected,
and remove the black mode question from the FAQ.
Remove the default [a.k.a SortMode.NONE] option from the library view.
It was effectively useless in every single library mode and was
functionally equivelent to SortMode.ALPHA_DOWN. Other SortModes might
come to take it's place, but likely only for albums.
Add a fast-scroller to the library view. This makes long lists of
items such as albums easier to scroll through, but also requires
pre-sorting of artists to make sure that unintended behavior does
not occur. A future commit may improve the sort options here so that
this does not need to occur.
Make the fast scroller respond to changes in the RecyclerView data.
This again prepares it for use in the library with it's sorting and
item configuration.
Use the native MediaStore sort of using the characters after an article
[if present] everywhere when sorting is done. Yes, this is still dumb
and non-local, but if I want to add fast-scrolling to the library view
I will have to keep consistency across each sort.
Finally add black theme support to Auxio. This is abit of a janky
implementation since I had to add an extra set of accents, but it
shouldn't be as big of a problem after the styles refactoring.
Support for black android components is not implemented yet, but
will be eventually.
Completely redesign the about UI to remove its dependency on
bottomsheetdialogfragment. That object is such a hassle to deal with an
is the epitome of everything wrong with this horrible platform. This
design will enable further about extensions in the future.
Make PlaybackSessionConnector also take events from ExoPlayer as it
used to with MediaSessionConnector. This improves reliability
somewhat at the cost of making the code even more hideous.
Fix some issues with PlaybackSessionConnector that resulted in the
position being stuck when a new song was played, alongside simplifying
the connector code to an extent.
Create a custom session connector that connects between
PlaybackStateManager and MediaSession. The previous session connector
that was part of the exoplayer library turned out to cause bugs that
could cause the covert art not to show on the lock screen and to not
be recognized as proper player controls. This new connector
[once complete] should fix these issues.
Instead of using @color/background directly, use ?attr/colorSurface
so that changes can be made to the theming easier. This also
resolves some more minor issues regarding certain widget's
backgrounds.
Change most of the external layout/drawable code to use
colorControlHighlight instead of selection_color so that control
over which kind of selection color is used is more fine-grained.
Remove the fixAnimInfoLeak hack since it seems that issue was fixed in the new android plugin, and once again modify with the styles to get the dialogs to use the correct style again.
Another day another magic flag I need to fiddle with to get this busted android app working. This platform sucks so much.
Update the auxio icon to be cleaner, make the debug icon more noticable compared to the mainline icon, and move all v26+ adaptive icons to drawable-anydpi-v26, as that is only where they are needed.
Upgrade the detail sorting system to:
- Persist beyond the app lifecycle [as other sort modes do]
- Be used when creating a queue for a genre/artist/album
Create a seperate ActionHeader object for headers with actions attached alongside a new viewholder to accompany it.
This allows action headers to be created easier without creating your own viewholder.
Do two things to the margin and padding system:
- Remove the redundant padding/margin dimens and replace it with a unified "spacing" dimen namespace
- Make most margin and padding dimens follow the divisible-by-8 rule in material design
Use unique-ish hashes in the playback state system instead of the less efficent and less reliable string system.
This cuts save times in ~half and improves restore times by ~1/3.
Yeah, this is like the 4th time I've changed this system but unless I have some major loader refactor I
think this wont change again.
Finally move the app from AppCompat the Material Bridge theme. This does a couple things:
- Removes need for runtime styling of material widgets used before
- Allows for a better dialog style [But only after a ton of tinkering and weird hacks]
- Makes theming slightly easier [After all the dumb migration bugs and technicalities are fixed]
I never want to do something like this again. UI styling on android is a nightmare.
Change the loop behavior to something that is actually sensible,
with [ ] looping the whole playlist and [ 1 ] looping the song.
This also removes the "Do on end" setting. A new stop option may
be reintroduced, however.
This resolves issue #13.
Do some post-setting refactor cleanup:
- Make some extension functions for SettingsManager for convienence
- Remove dead code from before the int migration
- Update semantics here and there
Fix some problems where PlaybackStateDatabase wouldn't downgrade [Problem when hopping between dev builds with db changes] and with assertBackgroundThread being public.
Update the structure of the settings system to do several things:
- Finally use int preferences everywhere instead of the mix of strings & ints from before
- Create a new preference named `IntListPreference` that enables the use of integers in list preferences
- Actually centralize array values and default values into a single integers xml
- Isolate all the new migration code into a single file
- Refreshed the int tables used by data objects [DB version has been updated, will not update when other changes]
The only preference not migrated is doAtEnd since that is being planned to be retired in a future LoopMode update.
Both improve and use dialogs
- The AlertDialog style now properly colors dialogs with the primary coler
- The accent & blacklist dialogs are now based on AlertDialog for their buttons, reducing layout complexity
Completely refactor the blacklist dialog to not only use the Storage Access Framework, but also to completely eliminate the material dialogs dependency.
Fix two more fast scrolling issues:
- Fixed size of the view would cut off larger fonts
- Thumb would briefly show when the view would initially start
This custom view was a mistake, but anything for less kbs.
Drop the old IndicatorFastScroll library from Auxio and replace it with a hyper-specialized variant designed specifically for Auxio.
This not only eliminates a source of hacks/problems/bloat, it also removes a dependency on jcenter (Which is shutting down soon)
Fix an issue where the playback restore process would only search the list of songs for the currently playing song, running the risk of picking the wrong song with the same name.
Unify the calls to getSystemService to a custom function that uses the ContextCompat getSystemService instead of the clunky vanilla getSystemService code.
(Maybe) fix an issue where AudioFocus might cause the playback to start again after being paused by the user, possibly caused by a audiofocus loss being labeled transient even if it wasnt.
Fix a bug where PlaybackStateManager would try to restore the parent from a full list of items, which raises the possibility for the incorrect parent to be chosen.
Change the loading process so that LoadingViewModel no longer requires an application instance to start. Also move the main music loading code to an internal function.
