I did a very quick smoke test -

$ ./gradlew clean insPrDeb

Installed into an emulator

> Task :app:installProdDebug
Installing APK '1313-prod-debug.apk' on 'Nexus_5X_API_27_x86(AVD) - 8.1.0' for app:prodDebug
Installed on 1 device.

And I cant launch any of the three shortcuts - for instance, logcat told me

@psh I have fixed it. I forgot to add applicationIdSuffix for debug.
I have tested the changes for both betaRelease and betaDebug on Pixel XL API 26
Thanks :)

Starting the application from a clean install, with the app logged out, I am able to select all three options from the shortcut menu and it launches directly into those activities. After entering the app using one of these shortcuts, when I select "Home" on the navigation drawer, the app crashes

java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to start activity ComponentInfo{fr.free.nrw.commons.debug/fr.free.nrw.commons.contributions.ContributionsActivity}: java.lang.NullPointerException: Attempt to read from field 'java.lang.String android.accounts.Account.name' on a null object reference

This is actually a huge problem. What's happening is that the shortcuts are bypassing the login process and jumping directly into the app. If I am logged out I shouldn't be able to do that. Basically, if I select "Nearby" from the app shortcut and I am logged out, I should stop at the login screen. If I am allowed further into the app things go badly wrong.

Secondly, although you solved the android.content.ActivityNotFoundException problem for our debug build, the Release build still fails with the exception. The challenge is that in the Release version of the code we dont have the ".debug" in our package name.

There will need to be different configuration files for the debug and the release build variants.

Second one can be easily solved by adding another intent specific for release version for each shortcut.
For first one I think can be solved using Dynamic Shortcuts. Each time dynamically setting intents depending upon whether the user has logged in or not.
@psh what is your opinion on dynamic intents ?

tanvidadu · 2018-03-21T14:39:10Z

@psh plz give me reviews on the above idea, so i can go ahead with development.

maskaravivek · 2018-08-01T07:13:03Z

@tanvidadu Do you still need any help in resolving the above issues? It would be great if you could bring this PR to completion. :)

tanvidadu · 2018-08-01T17:29:01Z

A lot of changes needs to be made, depending upon whether the user is logged in or not :)
As soon as #1486 gets Merged I will start working on it on a fresh pr!

maskaravivek · 2018-08-02T06:03:04Z

Awesome, thanks. Closing this PR then. :)
