## Features
|
|
|
|
Aves can handle all sorts of images and videos, including your typical JPEGs and MP4s, but also more exotic things like **multi-page TIFFs, SVGs, old AVIs and more**!
|
|
|
|
It scans your media collection to identify **motion photos**, **panoramas** (aka photo spheres), **360° videos**, as well as **GeoTIFF** files.
|
|
|
|
**Navigation and search** is an important part of Aves. The goal is for users to easily flow from albums to photos to tags to maps, etc.
|
|
|
|
Aves integrates with Android (from **API 19 to 31**, i.e. from KitKat to S) with features such as **app shortcuts** and **global search** handling. It also works as a **media viewer and picker**.

## Permissions
|
|
|
|
Aves requires a few permissions to do its job:
|
|
- **read contents of shared storage**: the app only accesses media files, and modifying them requires explicit access grants from the user,
|
|
- **read locations from media collection**: necessary to display the media coordinates, and to group them by country (via reverse geocoding),
|
|
- **have network access**: necessary for the map view, and most likely for precise reverse geocoding too,
|
|
- **view network connections**: checking for connection states allows Aves to gracefully degrade features that depend on internet.

## Project Setup
|
|
|
|
Before running or building the app, update the dependencies for the desired flavor:
|
|
```
|
|
# (cd scripts/; ./apply_flavor_play.sh)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
To build the project, create a file named `<app dir>/android/key.properties`. It should contain a reference to a keystore for app signing, and other necessary credentials. See [key_template.properties](https://github.com/deckerst/aves/blob/develop/android/key_template.properties) for the expected keys.
|
|
|
|
To run the app:
|
|
```
|
|
# flutter run -t lib/main_play.dart --flavor play
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
To run the app on API 19 emulators:
|
|
```
|
|
# flutter run -t lib/main_play.dart --flavor play --enable-software-rendering
|
|
```
