Add support for account registration

• Get Login Flows
• Captcha step
• Terms step (view terms in browser)
• 3pid step
• SSO (if the custom hs uses SSO, display immediately in webview)
• Login fallback
• Account creation fallback

Notes

• For now, for implementation ease transition screens in from the right, with the logo being a part of the scrollable view

See #40

The app must keep the order of sent messages.
This must be verified on bad network condition.

• Installed app
• Signed in successfully
• Immediate crash
• Any time the app is opened, it now crashes

feature : dedicated tabs for media( images, videos, audio) , documents (.pdf , .doc) and links . So that user can find important resource easily

Using a media preview screen before sending media to the room

• Handle sending media - SDK side (audio,image, video, file)
• File picker
• Take picture with camera
• Take video with camera
• Ask user for quality level before sending images

With slideshow

Related to #17
Current status: code has been imported from RiotX during #17.

what's remaining is to:

• integrate the banner on the Home. Home is now on develop, crypto branch has to be rebased on develop before doing this
• test Setup
• test Recover
• test Settings

The app should be able to display in the timeline:

• images
• animated images (automatic play based on user settings)
• videos

Merged with #48

The PoC should validate a better navigation across permalinks than the current riot-android. That one resets the navigation stack every time you tap on a permalink.

The PoC should manage:

• 1. permalink to a joined room. The user should be able to navigate from room to room and going back without losing the context
• 2. permalink to an event in the same room. The app must reuse the same screen.
  • a. to move from live to a permalink
  • b. from a permalink to live
• 3. use the DB
  • a. Manage permalink to event already in the DB
  • b. vs not yet. That requires to use /context and manage storage of received chunks, including merging continuous chunks
• 4. Permalink to a room not yet joined.

• Import String resource from Riot

See #40

The editor must manage slash command:

• manage completion
• display help
• convert the command into action

(legacy) commands to handle

• "/me"
• "/ban"
• "/unban"
• "/op"
• "/deop"
• "/invite"
• "/join"
• "/part"
• "/topic"
• "/kick"
• "/nick"
• "/markdown"
• "/clear_scalar_token"
• "/myroomnick"
• "/myroomavatar"
• "/plain"
• "/rainbow"
• "/rainbowme"
• "/shrug"
• "/lenny"
• "/tableflip" (#2814) (#7231)
• "/ignore"
• "/unignore"
• "/rageshake" (See #4881)
• "/converttodm"
• "/converttoroom"

I'd love to help work out bugs for this, but I am not in the position to build the APK myself regularly. Would it be possible to have Jenkins build one, or some other means to have a regularly updated APK available for testing?

after the deprecation of onRetainCustomNonConfigurationInstance last week, there is really no way to save data on configuration change (rotation, etc) without using ViewModels and Architecture Components.

You guys need to use AAC, Jetpack and Viewmodels asap. you can do some of this easily (https://developer.android.com/jetpack/androidx/migrate).

But you need to write the ViewModels by hand.

• Display invitations
• Preview of room when invited with possibility to reject or to accept the invitation: https://matrix.org/docs/spec/client_server/r0.4.0.html#room-previews

Any plans to support multiple accounts?

Edit by Benoit

The SDK already support multi-account.

Blocked by: matrix-org/sygnal#70

Open points:

• UI/UX
• What happen in case of soft logout
• Notifications
• Logout
• Login when already connected to another one
• Create a new account when already connected to another one
• To be completed

Please add a license to the repo and/or source files.

This may be a way to implement #8.

In the legacy Riot-Android app, we convert html contents into Android strings but we often have reports of users complaining that some html renders badly.

The goal of this PoC is to try to render every such message into a webview and then, check app performance of the room screen when the ListView contains plenty of webviews.
Of course, this must be checked on a low-end device.

Write a MD file (like/docs/implementations/timeline.md) folder describing the up-to-date implementation of state events storage and how they are read from several timelines of a same room.

Source is https://docs.google.com/document/d/1S4TPNk8-H8j4nk771ep1J4RuKOv42GyG74jjDfnlRn8.

• Room title
• Room picture
• Room topic
• List of members
• List of files (excluded from showstopper)
• E2E state

• VectorUncaughtExceptionHandler
• Take screenshot
• Configure Timber to capture and send logs

Maybe use same repo than for Riot, but with new label for RiotX

• Light theme (as default)
• Dark theme
• Black theme
• Status theme

See #40

Settings screen

• User profile
• Local contacts
• User interface
• Home display
• Flair
• Notifications
• Calls
• Ignored users
• Labs
• Crypto
• Crypto keys management
• Device
• Advanced
• Analytics
• Other
• Deactivate account

In this room and in all rooms

The editor must help the end user to complete:

• user names
• user ids
• room ids
• room aliases
• group

Pills:

• Generate pills: It should be able to generate pills for completed ids

The app should be able to display messages containing:

• quotes (with a left bar)
• replies
• pills
• stickers

• import last Jitsi lib

Use system dialogs:

• to select media to send
• to take photo or video

Manage the local echo in the timeline according to the sending state which can be:

• uploading associated data/media
• encrypting
• sending
• sent

Format matrix events into readable, internationalised messages in the timeline:

• state events:
  • membership events
  • room name change
  • room avatar change
  • ...
• bing
• UTDs (Unable To Decrypt) errors
• This must work for last messages displayed in rooms lists.

Rendering stickers is already supported by RiotX (#685)

Sending stickers is depending on #48 , so will be implemented after #48, as a cherry on the cake.

Hello,

If possible, it would be nice to have a light UX version of RiotX dedicated to androidTV.

It is possible today to install and use Riot for android with a mouse and keyboard on androidTV (thanks to AptoideTV). I know receiving voice and video work. I couldn't try if others can hear/see me because I don't have webcam for my TV but I read that Android has some webcam's drivers pre-installed. I'll try when I can. Did someone try?

However, I think it's not handy to do so. What I have in mind is a simpler version of it. It is mostly a question of hiding options of the android app.

It would only allow to make and answer calls in direct chat. Salon would not be listed (hidden, not accessible inside RiotX-androidTV), only direct chat would appear! And when we enter one of them, only the two buttons of voice and video call would be there (no chat room, no keyboard needed).

Only notification of calls would be needed and would appear on top of screen while TV is on (used) with two options answer/not answer.

If it's possible, it could even ring and switch on the screen of TV when a call is incoming but would need to switch off again the screen if the call is not picked (to avoid consuming electricity).

What do you think?

• LICENSE
• README.md
• CONTRIBUTING.md
• AUTHORS.md
• .github/PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE.md

Implement MELS: collapse consecutive membership events in the timeline.

• Phone number addition screen
• Phone number verification screen

See #40

Current Riot-Android in background mode receive all events, even in muted rooms. This is not good for traffic & battery.

For example, I joined to Matrix HQ, Riot and some others active rooms, because very rarely read them (1-2 times in week). But my mobile device wakes up and receive every message from those rooms, eating my battery and traffic.

Will be good to implement power save mode, that receive only events for active rooms and ignore muted rooms, sync them only on demand (when they opened manually).

The app must be able to display message events with org.matrix.custom.html format

Add the abillity to record and send voice messages inside the App and also play them.
(without the need of 3rd party apps)

EDIT by @bmarty:
Additional requirements:

• Users hold a button to record a voice message and release to review then send (or delete).
• The voice message is recorded as an audio file and uploaded to the media repository.
• A special event is written to the timeline and renders on clients as a playable voice message.
• Recording and playing audio files must be integrated into the app that no external other app is required for both functions.

• Logout API call
• Clear media cache
• Clear cache

See #82

Here is the recipe so far:

• Import legacy code from Riot to RiotX
• Make the code compil once
• Migrate the network code to the new archi (Tasks, etc.)
• Migrate the realm code to the new archi
• Create services to expose crypto API (CryptoService, KeysBackupService, SasVerificationService)
• Import UI for SasVerification
  • incoming request are displayed
    • can be cancelled
    • can be accepted
• Import UI for KeysBackup
• Plug in the crypto settings in main settings screen (display info, import/export keys, etc)
  • Display device name + rename device
  • Display device id + copy to clipboard
  • Display device fingerprint + copy to clipboard
  • Enable/Disable crypto to verified device only
  • Display list of devices, and display device detail when clicking on a detail
    • Delete a device
    • Rename a device
  • Export room keys (old method)
  • Import room keys (old method)
  • Open keys backup management
• Plug in the crypto setting in room setting screen (the screen is not yet available) (See #178)
