A multi-column social network client.

• Multiple accounts.
• Timelines, mentions, lists and searches can all be columns.
• Adaptive layout: tablets show multiple columns at once.
• De-duplicate: filter the items in one column out of another.
• Read Later column: any tweet can be saved locally for reading later.
• Background feed fetching and caching.
• In-line image previews from Twitter, Instagram, Twitpic and Imgur.

• Twitter columns are supported directly.
• Twitter and Facebook columns via SuccessWhale.
• Posting to Buffer (currently requires advanced config to add account).

Currently there are no 'official' releases of Onosendai. Recent snapshot builds can be downloaded from http://builds.onosendai.mobi

Note that background tasks will run based on battery level.

Advanced configuration (not using the UI) is available but not recommended for typical users. It is both a legacy feature and a useful development hook when testing new features. This is via the deck.conf file that lives in the root of the external storage device, typically /sdcard/deck.conf. If this file does not exist a template can be created by the welcome screen for you to edit.

Note: This is to show what possible. It is not necessarily a good example of what you should put in your config. Just saying.

Account IDs and Feed IDs: These are used to separate data in the DB. The are arbitrary and do not have to be in order. If you remove an account or column it may be best not to reuse the ID as strange things may happen. Column IDs must be positive integers.

SuccessWhale feeds: Refer to SuccessWhale docs for the format of the 'resource' field.

The background refresh service will check approximately every 15 minutes for columns that need refreshing. Keep this in mind when choosing refresh times. The following are examples of valid values: 15min, 30mins, 1hour, 3hours, 2hour30mins.
