codepath-twitter-client's Issues

[Android Bootcamp] App Ready for Review (Again)

New user stories incorporated, please review. /cc @nesquena

I didn't get to the last optional user story because I want to focus on the group project.

One interesting note: I had to rebuild the ActiveAndroid jar because the one you ship in the REST Client Template doesn't have unique key constraint support. Also, implicit foreign key constraints are broken in the latest Active Android, so I had to manage the relationships manually.

App's ready, please review. /cc @nesquena

Pain points:

• Importing PullToRefresh (or any external android module) into Android Studio. Solution ended up being two parts:
  • Get the editor to recognize the module
    • Add the module folder to the project
    • Expose the module to the editor by using the "Import Modules" tool in the "Libraries..." context menu.
    • Mark the newly imported Module as a dependency of the Twitter App
  • Get gradle to compile and package the module
    • Ensure that the editor is using the correct version of Gradle (I had to download 1.6)
    • In gradle.settings, make a reference to the module folder (see the file for an example)
    • In build.gradle mark the project reference for compilation
• Adding relationships in ActiveAndroid
  • Turns out you can't set a relationship member (i.e. Tweet.user) with a Model that has not previously been save()d.
  • The result is a super-vague NullPointerException
