This PR fixes some issues with connections and threading. Specifically, the change in #618 introduced threading in `HostConnection`, which had some issues. To fix them, the following changes were made:
- A specific TCP listener thread is used and manually started, instead of using one of the threads in the pool. The TCP listener thread is a long lived thread that should always be running (as long as the connection is through TCP), blocked listening on the TCP socket, so it shouldn't be managed in a pool, where, theoretically, it can be paused and reused.
- Changed the number of threads to 5. We shouldn't need more than this, otherwise we can overwhelm some Kodi hardware.
- Had to sprinkle some `synchronized` to avoid race conditions. For instance, through a TCP connection, as soon as Kore is opened (on the remote screen) it will call at least `GetActivePlayers`, `GetProperties`, `Ping`. If the TCP socket isn't set up yet, each of these calls would create a socket (and a TCP listener thread), so we would open 3 or more sockets when we should just open 1. A `synchronized` in `executeThroughTcp` prevents this. The others prevent similar issues.
Aditionally:
- Tweaked the playlist fetching code, so that it happens exclusively in `HostConnectionObserver` and when PlaylistFragment is notified of changes, it already gets the playlist data. This somewhat simplifies the code, and makes it more consistent with the Player Observer code;
- Change `EventServerConnection` to accept a Handler on which to post the result of the connection, so that the caller can control on which thread the result is called;
- Calls to the various `RegisterObserver` loose the reply immediately parameter, as it was always true.
Implemented showing a music/video/picture playlist in PlaylistFragment even
when playback has stopped but the playlist is still available on Kodi.
The playlist is now only cleared if the Playlist.OnClear event is received
from Kodi.
As the pictures playlist does not support moving/removing items this has
been disabled for the pictures playlist only.
Added a new package org.xbmc.kore.host.actions to hold all Callable's that
we use to handle complex interactions with Kodi that use multiple JSON RPC
calls.
Fixed issue in HostConnectionObserver in method notifySomethingIsPlaying
where hostState.lastGetItemResult.label might not be set.
Reduced calling (force)refreshPlaylist considerably as it should now be
handled by the playlist observer.
When the title is longer than fits on screen, it wil first be ellipsized
and when user clicks on the title it will start scrolling to make it
fully readable.
* This gives the user a choice of their hosts to share a url to.
* Sadly the youtube app doesn't appear to support this. It wants to
use some sort of crappy "Message on Youtube" thing rather than using
standard android stuff (go figure). It does, however, work from a
chrome browser of the youtube video, or likely any other supported
share.
* Fixed Espresso not waiting on ViewPager switching
* Removed BaseMediaActivityTests abstract class.
Unfortunately the click action on list items now requires
a unique item to be able to select the item to click.
Therefore the tests from BaseMediaActivityTests have been
moved to the specific test classes. This made the
BaseMediaActivityTests class obsolete.
* Removed dependency on Context class in AddonsHandler and inlined
the json data to allow the AddonsHandler to be initialized before
the test activity is started. This was needed to have the
AddonsActivityTests directly start the AddonsActivity, instead of
first starting MoviesActivity and from there start the AddonsActivity.
Hitting the back button in the remote activity was being ignored, thus preventing exiting the app. This issue was inadvertidely introduced in d11dbe6853
The onDestroyView method is used to unregister the application observer
from the dialog. However the parent got called first which destroys the
view of the dialog. This could lead to Null Pointer Exceptions when
the listener tries to update the UI of the dialog right after it was
destroyed.
The VolumeControllerDialogFragmentListener was created twice as creation
was triggered on both the down and up event of the volume keys. This has
been changed to only trigger on down events.
Somewhere along the line, the edits made in b0f2adb876 where lost because the `AddonsActivity` was instantiating `AddonListFragment` instead of `AddonListContainerFragment`.
This PR reinstates the ability to bookmark and access addons, and refactors the way those settings were being stored in the Shared Preferences to use the default Shared Preferences and take into account the specific host we're connected to.
During tests, activities were not closed properly causing increasing
memory usage, which resulted in failing tests because of
out of memory errors.
This has been fixed by using the test orchestrator which runs
each test in its own instrumentation instance.
Removed the instrumentationTest flavor and replaced it by using the
default debug build type. The flavor was used to keep the required
permissions during testing separate from release versions. This can
also be accomplished using the debug build type.
The PagerSlidingTabStrip from astuetz doesn't work with the new
android build tools. As the project seems dead, I replaced it with
PagerTabStrip from the support library.
Refactored MusicListFragment and PVRListFragment to use AbstractTabsFragment
Fixed scrolling in a nested scroll view using espresso
Fixed issue with setting and checking Kodi major version
When a silent sync is running the refresh animation shouldn't appear and this wasn't being repected in some situations. For instance, when not connected to Kodi, starting from a TV Show details, selecting one episode or season and hitting back, the animation would appear. This PR makes sure that it is only shown if it isn't silent.
As detailed in https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/pull/13051, Kodi v18 changes the way album genres are handled, as the genre (by which i mean `genreId`) ceases to be available at the album level, being only available at the songs level.
This impacts Kore because `GetAlbums` and `GetAlbumDetails` won't return the `genreId` tag, from which the local AlbumGenres table was populated.
This PR changes the source of the local AlbumGenres table to be the `genreId` returned at the song level (by `GetSongs`), to make it somewhat more consistent with the way Kodi will handle things from now on.
* Implemented a new widget "fabspeeddial"
* Provides user with two options to play the media item. One
option to play the item on Kodi, one to play it on the remote.
* Replaced deprecated FAB button from
com.melnykov:floatingactionbutton:1.3.0 with the FAB button from
the design library
* Implemented a busy indicator (pulsate) when fab button is clicked
and JSON API method is still pending
* Added a setting to allow the user to disable local playback and
revert back to the old behaviour
* Refactored AbstractFragmentInfo
* Replaced RelativeLayout by CoordinatorLayout to support
hiding/showing the FAB button when scrolling
* Replaced the tree view observer to fade out art view when scrolling
with a behavior for the CoordinaterLayout
* Removed empty theme file for v19
* Refactored HostConnection to allow new activities to attach its
callbacks to any pending ApiMethod. This is required to support device
configuration changes.
There's no need to have so many classes to handle the hardware volume keys. This PR simplifies it, without duplicating any more code than was already duplicated.
- added method to HostConnection that returns a Future object instead of
taking a callback.
- added logic for handling null Handlers in HostConnection methods
- added method to HostManager to run a function that takes a HostConnection
in a background thread where the Future API results above can be
synchronously composed.
- replaced chain of callbacks in RemoteActivity with a sequence of
future gets in OpenSharedUrl.
Whan the background service is launcher, it is launched on the foreground and a notification is always shown.
The service stays on while something is playing. It stops itself on a connection error, quitting Kodi or 5 seconds after stopping
Make the Pause Phone Calls preference dependent on the Show Notification preference, as we always need to show a notification when the service is running
Lint is complaining about the new launcher icons in 'res/mipmap-anydpi-v26'
are not in PNG format. These are now defined in XML and lint is probably
not aware of the new XML format for API v26 and higher.
This also fixes usage of "android:layout_marginEnd". Which is only
supported from API v17.
Added running lintFullRelease to travis-CI build.
* Refactored RemoteFragment and created a compound view for the
actual remote. I called it ControlPad to make it more clear what
its main function is.
* Implemented a custom grid layout (SquareGridLayout) that will
always be square. When its width and height are both set to
match_parent, it will take the smallest of the two as the
actual size.
* For devices with a smallest width smaller then 360dp the ControlPad
is sized to the maximum available space. For larger devices we still
use the old fixed sizes.
Refactored code to use styles
* Implemented simple Kodi markup code applier for the Now Playing fragment
* Moved to UIUtils; added early exit; now handles nesting of the same type
* Added handlers for LOWERCASE, CAPITALIZE, LIGHT and COLOR
- LOWERCASE and CAPITALIZE work, LIGHT and COLOR are just stripped out
- inlined the TextAppearanceSpan new's. Turns out they can't be reused.
* updated javadoc
* fixed crash when capitalizing an empty word
* Fixed issue with selecting tabs
* Fixed issue with switching host on other thread than UI thread
* Fixed concurrent modification exception in JSONConnectionHandlerManager
* Fixed issue with drawer not closing
* Fixes issue with running method only supported on API 21 and higher
* Allow the RemoteActivity and BaseMediaActivity to show a volume controller dialog when hardware volume keys are pressed
** The dialog handles the key events and makes callbacks to the activities to handle showing the dialog itself
* Minor improvements
** Make HighlightButton render in the IDE GUI Editor
** Minor code cleanup
** set currentActivePlayerId = -1; on playerOnStop in BaseMediaActivity to be more consistent
