Prepare support for sort tags by reworking how sortName is structured.
Instead of rawName and sortName, music must now implement rawName and
rawSortName. rawSortName will be checked first, followed by will
falling back to rawName.withoutArticle. This allows hard-coded tags to
be neatly implemented while avoiding an immediate copy.
Add a "Last Added" sorting option to the home UI's song list.
I don't know if there is any demand for last added in other contexts.
That will be resolved later.
Remove the excluded directory migration code, as it causes far more
issues than it fixes.
Due to an unfixable logic bug that occurs when trying to read the
setting, Auxio will always try to migrate the database when there is
no music folders, causing a hang in some situations. Fix it by just
removing the migration.
Add an abstraction over the generation system called GenerationGuard.
This allows cheap cooperative threading to be implemented consistently
in many places.
Add automatic rescanning, for real.
This is the culmination of 6 months of work to make Auxio respond to
music updates and to research the most versatile implementation of
such. Is it the best system? No. It's actually a bit messy by necessity
in order to prevent bugs. Does it work well? Yes.
This will not be enabled by default, as it does require a battery
draining foreground service and is generally not useful for most
circumstances.
So glad to be done with this.
Resolves#72.
Move the switch from IO to Main to within Indexer itself, through
withContext.
This is much easier to work with than the previous system of a separate
"update" coroutine, which isn't really needed anymore given that I no
longer need to do IO work when sanitizing the playback state.
Edge case I thought existed did not. PlaybackService must have saved
before dying, and thus if it did not foreground after a sanitization,
the saved state would still sanitize in a similar manner.
Save, but do not read the playback state when sanitizing.
Turns out there is an edge-case where we want to save the state. Still
keep the runtime sanitization, as that greatly reduces the time it
takes to rescan the library.
Do not save the playback state when sanitizing.
After some thought, there is no situation where re-saving the playback
state is desirable. A previously saved state will be consistent with
a sanitized state, and there is no need to save when the service is
active. Thus, save on speed and reduce insane race conditions by just
sanitizing the current runtime state and not saving at all.
Finally unify all icon activation states under the new grade modifier
in Material Symbols.
This provides similar clarify to the dot/greyed state, but without
inconsistent meanings. The shuffle icon did have to be bolded a little
more though, as the grade did not seem to do much.
Rework the UI flow for music loading to be more coherent with runtime
rescanning.
The loading progress is now shown as a card on the bottom of the
screen. This way, app use is not completely crippled when the app has
to rescan the music library, albeit the shuffle button still has to
be disabled during this period.
Audit usages of Synchronized throughout the app to prevent deadlocks.
This is primarily composed of not making long-running work
synchronized, instead only making mutations and reads synchronized.
This does cause minor issues, such as during a sanitization event
the playback state could be feasibly saved, changed, and then restored
back to the previous state unintentionally. However, preventing
deadlocks is generally better than trying to fix those.
Use the @Synchronized annotation instead of synchronized.
Makes my ability to manage thread-safety on the shared objects much
easier. Because I don't have to think about what I should guard
and what I shouldn't.
Finally enable runtime rescanning, opening the door for a ton of new
features and automatic rescanning later on.
More work needs to be done on making the shared mutable state in-app
safer to use.
Improve the indexer callback system to be more coherent and efficient.
This delegates the old Callback role to a new singular Callback and
Controller roles. IndexerService also handles the loading process
more gracefully, reducing the amount of time music loads take.
Rework the rounded covers option into a new "Round Mode" option.
This commit extends the rounded corners configuration to now the
widget, thus making the setting apply now to covers, the bar, and
the widget configuration. This makes a naming change useful.
Further rework the button layout to be alike to other modern widgets.
This changeset transforms the play button into a FAB-ish thing,
makes spacing coherent between the uses of each layout, and adds
spacers to make the buttons layout in a more appealing way.
Update the library update process to be on a co-routine, updating
callbacks on the main thread.
For some insane reason, the Main dispatcher used normally when
loading music just disappears sometimes. This leads to unpleasent
crashes as callbacks expect to be called on the app thread, not
any background threads.
Fix this by forcing the Main dispatcher during the update process.
This requires the music update process to also run on a background
thread, albeit that will be useful for automatic rescanning late ron.
Completely rework Auxio's iconography based on the new material symbols
icon set.
This does the following:
1. Switches the sharp + filled icon style to an outlined + round icon
style.
2. Removes 32dp icons from everywhere except the playback panel.
This does not:
1. Actually handle optical sizes right. This is going to take some more
work to make it harmonious with the current UI.
2. Update margins in some places to be harmonious with the new icons.
This is also going to take some more work to do properly.
Rework the bottom sheet layout process to accomodate the new rounded
corners and be far more efficient.
This removes the weird content layout code and moves it into the inset
code, which not only allows content to show in the corners, but also
allows us to minimize the amount of layouts that we normally perform.
Rework Sort again into a new class that leverages a better Mode design
and static comparator instances.
This somewhat improves efficiency, but is also far easier to work with
and has far less footguns with adding new sorts.
Add a utility to easily work with lifecycle-dependent fragment objects.
This reduces the code duplication required to maintain objects that
would leak after the destruction of a fragment. We normally would not
do this as a delegate, as that usually entails some lifecycle wizardry
that can easily break and crash the app in esoteric situations.
However, this this just extends the normal lifecycle without watching
any state, it seems to be pretty safe to use.
Revamp the shared object SettingsManager into a standalone utility
called Settings.
This makes many things easier in Auxio. It completely unifies the key
format that we use (Android Strings instead of Java consts), eliminates
the pretty dumb initialization method that we use, and eliminates the
dubiousness of holding a Context-related utility in a global field.
The only cost was having to migrate even more ViewModels to Android
ViewModels. Whatever.
Add a shortcut to shuffle all songs.
This is likely the only static shortcut Auxio will have. Top tracks
and recently added are completely useless for me, so I will never
add them. I may add more dynamic shortcuts for recently played items,
however.
Note that we use a basic black shuffle icon here. I will not add icon
customization to these shortcuts.
Use ServiceCompat.stopForeground instead of stopForeground.
This is preliminary preparation for Android 13. I can only change SDK
versions however when the Android Gradle Plugin makes a new release
though.
Remove the animated indicator, replacing it with a static one.
I wish I could have kept this, but once again android is a sh******ed
mess and makes it impossible to dynamically animate something depending
on the playing state. It will restart the animation, ignore calls to
stop, or just flat out now run the code path in the first place due to
race conditions.
Further separate backend implementations to remove redundant tasks.
Generally, if I have not encountered an issue where a field is not
present/sane, I don't want to put in a "well, maybe" fallback, as
that would tank performance. Only do it when we need to.
Switch the excluded directory system to StorageVolume.
This finally removes dependence on the in-house Volume constructs, and
also completely extends fully music folder selection support to all
versions that Auxio supports.
This is possibly one of the most invasive and risky reworks I have done
with Auxio's music loader, but it's also somewhat exciting, as no other
music player I know of handles Volumes like I do.
Leverage StorageVolume when working with file paths.
StorageVolume is android's navive API for handling external volumes.
Ideally, we would want to replace our built-in volume class with this
new API, however doing so is somewhat complicated as some methods only
exist on newer API levels. This is only the first step until we are
able to migrate the excluded directory system to this as well.
Only show codecs in the "format" field, if we are able to extract them.
This is primarily for consistency, as there is no way for us to
determine the container format outside of an extension (which could not
be sane).
Fix an API 21-specific bug that could result in covers not loading when
quality covers was enabled.
This stemmed from a use of `use` on MediaMetadataRetriever, which
relied on an interface not present on the class on API 21.
Completely rework the excluded directory system into a new
"Music Folders" system.
This is implemented alongside a new "Include" mode. This mode
allows the user to restrict music indexing to a parsicular folder.
I've been reluctant to add this feature, as having two separate
options seemed bad. This resolves it by effectively packing whether
to include/exclude directories into a single option.
Resolves#154.
