developers-portfolio's Issues

Login Activity Bug

See Image : below.

Save Users info to firebase

We need to Save User Info to Firebase.

Added the HttpsTrustManager

We need an HttpsTrustManager class.

Data Transfer between Fragments

So I made a fragment for adding items to the Feeds fragment. But as I was trying to pass a string to the feeds fragment, the app crashes. So can anyone help with passing data between those two fragments?

Update About.

When done update the About Section.

Store logging status

After user login or logout we have to store logging status .

Drawer Navigation About Function

I am working on this almost done.

Database

The team discussed how to handle the data, but for now we will have it as reminder.

Feeds-Layout branch

Hement is enhancing the Feeds layout on the branch Feeds Layout.

interest-activity Branch

Please Read through.
So i took time, after i came up with a mock up to try and make it easier for the team to implement the following activities . All fragments are on Fragments folder. I added a folder Util too, for our utils, I added class Session and the BottomNavigationViewHelper in there which we will help us with navigation.

• Project Activity

• Interest Activity

• Feeds Activity

So on the manifest i decided to start .MainActivity so that we can implement this first as we wait for the Firebase team to implement Login and Sign-up so this means we can work on the rest as we look into this slowly.

So i strongly suggest running everything from the MainActivity. The main should start the Login and the Login should prompt the Sign up like that.

Also on Main Activity i introduced a Bottom Navigator to help users maneuver through the app to get to activities. I decided not to do everything since this is team work and contribution is appreciated. As you can see i also included this code: which i have commented out first so that we can work on designs :)

NOTE

this code should help us start activities and know how they follow each other.

@Override
        public boolean onNavigationItemSelected(@NonNull MenuItem item) {

            switch (item.getItemId()) {
                case R.id.action_feeds:
                    fragment = new FeedsFragment();
                    break;
                case R.id.action_interests:
                    fragment = new InterestFragment();
                    break;
                case R.id.action_projects:
                    fragment = new ProjectsFragment();
                    break;
                case R.id.action_profile:
                    fragment = new ProfileFragment();
                    break;

            }
       
        }

I have indeed commented out some of my code so that we can allow room for changes but please dont delete read through.

This could not fit on the commit hence why i created it as an issue. As for the navigation drawer , i was just drawing a mock-up lets have it on the default location - left, wanted to show case what will be in there as per what we discussed on our hangout.

NOTE: users should be able to pick their own colors. I picked blue on my mock up

For more questions feel free to ask me.

Noticed once you click Login or Register Button on Branch Develop it forces close, hence Restart App.

Hey please try clicking the button login and register on develop without registering , it should not collapse but ask a user to register or login in.

Feeds | Message Database

Concerns

So basically I was going through the complexity which might be involved in Feeds, I believe we will allow users to share photos, but my biggest concern was since we are using a third party storage system -- how far will it take us before we start hitting the boundaries? assuming our users grow enormously.

1. So assuming we go ahead and launch the app some of my suggestions would be we architect beyond the original specifications and requirements, problem is however we are limited here due to our project nature and resources since this is a learning process.

2. What we can do maybe is limit the amount of feeds to be sent in a day and number of images in case we launch the app which might be a back set since users want freedom.

3. As for Project and Interest section we can try to save them locally on the phone.

4. I also understand firebase scale issues, so when we hit the limit for sure they will slow down our execution. I mean which is realistic. I also found out about Firebase technical limits too, which is something we should all look at.

5. Pricing https://firebase.google.com/pricing/

6. On the meeting please do let me know what you think.

Creating Profile Prototype

As per discussed on 2/16/18 .. I am working on creating the profile prototype to be used for the app. I am working on three pages we will discuss them once done.

Firebase

Here are the list of info we can get from

First-name and Last-name
Email Address
Profile picture

Nav Drawer Font | check Help And Log out button they blink the same time.

I have noticed once you click on the any the font changes to default , also noticed once you click on the Help and Log out they blink on the same time :) to be worked on .

BackEnd

Hey Yall,
I'm not sure if you guys have implemented a backend yet but if you haven't firebase is really good at managing HTTP connections, and authenticity. Is it ok if I use firebase or is there a local server you plan to use?

[UI] Login button shadow display issue

Buttons for login are not well displayed we can see that the shadow is cut

On Fragment RegisterFragment

We are returning a value from a method with void result type.

@OverRide
public void onClick(View view) {
return binding.getRoot();
}

Projects - Activity Functionalities | project-activity branch

Brief

On the Project Activity , we need to display User projects. This will be a layout where all users will display their work to everyone they have added on their circle 👍

Projects

So this is just ensuring onClick one can add their project URL, and attach an Image to the URL and showcase their work . The button View should help do that function, or we can always adjust.

Features

• Users Projects

Classes

• ProjectsAcivity - Java Class

• Projects Fragment

• Layouts : fragment_projects , portfolio_list_row, activity_projects

Mock UP

Profile Data persistence

So I know this is still in develop mode but when I edit the profile info, it changes the default but when I navigate away and return back, my info returns to the default.

Match App Font

Make sure the App has matching Fonts.

Profile Activity

Create Profile Activity

Add This line of Code on FeedsFragment

@emmaunel please add this line of code on your Add Feeds Fragment to help with the Naming changes on the ToolBar. I noticed once you click it keeps changing from the Dev Name to projects or Interest

((AppCompatActivity)(context)).getSupportActionBar().setTitle(getString(R.string.Feeds));

Navigation Drawer Functionalities | Nav-Drawer Branch

Brief

Feel free to join me on implementing the Navigation Drawer Functions. On the Navigation Drawer we have the following;

• User Name

• Profession

• Message

• Manage Profile

• About

• Settings

• Help

• Log Out

Navigation Drawer

So the Navigation drawer will help users navigate our App.

Features

Messages . Manage Profile . About . Settings . Help . Log out .
I already included Notification on the settings, so no need to do it as a stand alone. So on messages users should be able to text other users, Manage profile will help users navigate to parts where they want to advance on their apps, About this will be a small description about Authors and the idea behind the App.

Settings

Setting will include several features;

• General : this has Enable social recommendations . Display name . Add friends to messages

Brief

On the Interest Activity We Need the following:

3. Following . Followers . Projects

Display Interest

So the idea is to create functions for the Interest Activity. So whats needed here is, a User should be able to display what they are interested in, they can create it or get it on the web.

If anyone wants to join me feel free to join me welcome.

Features

Commenting On code Guidelines.

This will really be helpful since our project is getting bigger, we need to be able to maintain it easier. We can also use this rules... https://google.github.io/styleguide/javaguide.html
