Android source code

Title.

[karlstav]

will look in to this

@karlstav Soo hows that going?

[karlstav]

The android build chain that I have locally is very hacky.

I have to formalise the build stuff and make some changes before I can merge it into the source.

Little time at the moment I'm afraid. So this will not happen anytime soon.

[Twig6943]

@karlstav Could you upload the .apk to the releases tab or to somewhere else for the time being?

[karlstav]

putting the app on playstore was mostly for laughs and the learning experience. I will get the android source on to here at some point.

[Twig6943]

Ait still waiting 👍

[Twig6943]

@karlstav any updates on this? Would be cool if u uploaded the app as is to a cusom fdroid repo for the time being (assuming that you're still rewriting it)

+1

[karlstav]

I will try to get the source up here, have to figure out some meaningful way of distributing it. Not much time for it at the moment.

[Twig6943]

@karlstav are you uploading rn?

[Twig6943]

Binaries: https://www.mediafire.com/file/krm3ek75m1hceex/cava-initial-release.apk

[ilobilo]

could you add an option in the app to use audio output instead of input?

[karlstav]

I made the app free on playstore now. Note that the playstore app does not use the same keystore

[karlstav]

I have been trying to grab audio directly from output. There is some extra security thing that makes it difficult, but I think it should be possible. Might look into it later.

This + the app on the fdroid + the ability to import & export configs would be pretty cool to have (Ik that its still wip and has a long way to go ty for releasing the source code)

[Twig6943]

@karlstav should I create a seperate issue for F-Droid release? (Dont matter if it gets into F-droid or a custom F-droid repo like IzzyOnDroid )

[Twig6943]

Putting the apks to the releases tab would also work with Obtanium

The preferred install method for most users go like this tho;
F-Droid.org> Custom F-droid repo > Obtanium > Play store

[karlstav]

i uploaded the apk to the releases page.

if i remember to do it for each release you can always get the latest release at

https://github.com/karlstav/cava/releases/latest/download/cava.apk

I guess you could just add a request for it add optanium

[karlstav]

Nothing will happen at this end for getting cava onto f-droid/Obtanium i am affraid. But if I understand this correctly anyone can request it to go up there.

[Twig6943]

@karlstav FYI Obtanium isn't an app store its a utility that pulls and auto-updates the .apk from github/gitlab etc.
