Add icon and screenshots to F-droid

Hi, the Yubico Authenticator F-Droid package is maintained by the community, please move your request to https://gitlab.com/fdroid/. The documentation for providing resources is at https://f-droid.org/docs/All_About_Descriptions_Graphics_and_Screenshots/#ways-of-providing-metadata.

@AdamVe Wouldnt be better to have this in this repostitory?

[AdamVe]

Because we don't maintain the F-Droid builds I would rather see F-Droid related resources in the F-Droid repository and the link above describes how this can be accomplished; there are already some existing resources in this folder. We try to avoid depending on external build system which we cannot control directly and adding the resource would create such dependency.

https://gitlab.com/-/snippets/1895688 and in images/icon.png is what you want and screenshots and etc

I mean do add description, summary too, and we'll remove them from the metadata https://gitlab.com/fdroid/fdroiddata/-/blob/master/metadata/com.yubico.yubioath.yml#L12

these will be shown with the first release that has them

The icon and screenshots and so on must be added in this repository. https://f-droid.org/en/docs/All_About_Descriptions_Graphics_and_Screenshots/#fastlane-structure is recommended.

The folder you @AdamVe linked to can only contain the short description (also called summary). The build metadata at https://gitlab.com/fdroid/fdroiddata/-/blob/master/metadata/com.yubico.yubioath.yml can (and does) contain the description.

Everything except for those two need to be added upstream. That is, here.

Hope this helps.

PS: I'll see if I can update the docs you linked to in #1402 (comment) to make this more clear.

Edit: I've updated the docs. Do you feel like the added sentence would have prevented the misunderstanding?

Hello, thank you all for your involvement! I’ve submitted a PR for adding an app icon (#1734). Is there any way to check if the icon will be used without having to create a new release of Yubico Authenticator?

@leoheitmannruiz I appreciate your contribution to the documentation—it clearly explains that the app's source repository is the only location where the mentioned image resources can be provided.

I'm afraid not really, but I'm not sure. I suppose you could set up fdroidserver and test but I doubt it's worth the effort. I'm very confident it should work.

Though, I feel like you might prefer the Triple-T structure. That way you won't have to pollute the root of the repository and the icon can live with the Android stuff. Sorry for recommending Fastlane :)

@AdamVe should be fine

... prefer the Triple-T structure. That way you won't have to pollute the root of the repository ...

@leoheitmannruiz Agreed and updated.
