@shuvashish76 you have my explicit permission to post those links 😄

• F-Droid: The privacy-friendly alternative to Google Play Store (the start of the article series)
• the fdroid tag for more on the topic

Hey guys, I've gone through the comments and I find @IzzySoft F-Droid repo quite interesting. Thanks for sharing @L1VEWIR3 and @shuvashish76. Launching the app on F-droid sounds fun🤗🤗🤗

A RFP has been opened here : https://gitlab.com/fdroid/rfp/-/issues/2021

F-Droid requirements

• The upstream app source code repo contains the app metadata (summary/description/images/changelog/etc) in a Fastlane or Triple-T folder structure.

Hi @IzzySoft,

I haven’t worked on the project in a while. I’ll build from the command line and create a new tag. I’ll notify when this is done.

Hi @IzzySoft check the latest release here

Fastlane is covered by the tag

from audionote.

I’ll take a look at it

Hi there @L1VEWIR3 , I'm not quite familiar with F-droid.
Can you hit me up on [email protected] so we can talk about it?

from audionote.

Currently the app available on izzy repo.

https://f-droid.org/en/about/
F-Droid is a non-profit alternative app store for FOSS apps, where applications in the repository are built from source.

Ping @IzzySoft (he is one of the maintainer there) for help.

from audionote.

Well, I know it's in my repo – I've put it there 🤣 So what was I pinged for, how can I help?

@IzzySoft For general overview about F-Droid & how it works. Pinged you for the links as your reply looks professional 😅

@certified84 check this comment : freeCodeCamp/mobile#199 (comment)

@certified84 guess I'd need your help with the F-Droid build. It builds fine so far, but not "reproducible" (with reproducible builds, F-Droid would ship the APK you build and sign). You can find my notes here (and are welcome to chime in). The current question is, let me quote from a team mate:

The order of those files is different. Maybe upstream built the apk with android studio. Please ask them building it from command line.

Can that be done? Either from the commit the current tag points to – or from a later one where Fastlane is available, too (in that case please let me know which commit you took, so I update that on F-Droid's end for the reproducible-check). Thanks in advance!

from audionote.

Wonderful, thanks!

from audionote.

Version bumped, CI running now, thanks!

from audionote.

Well, this was a very bad idea: Firebase is a show-stopper for F-Droid. Can you remove that again, or at least provide a build flavor without? Else we have to abandon the inclusion.

from audionote.

Ok, no worries. I’ll do that and ping you again

from audionote.

@IzzySoft, fixed it here

from audionote.

Thanks! YAML updated and pushed. Waiting for the CI then.

from audionote.

diff -r /tmp/tmp.95HiDjck9v/a/kotlin-tooling-metadata.json /tmp/tmp.95HiDjck9v/b/kotlin-tooling-metadata.json
4c4
<   "buildSystemVersion": "8.0.2",
---
>   "buildSystemVersion": "8.0",

That file seems to be produced at build time. Is that needed? It's the only thing keeping the build from being reproducible now.

from audionote.

@IzzySoft can you try it again?

from audionote.

@certified84 which commit did you build from (I need to trigger a new build from the same commit at our end)?
