ownCloud Windows Phone App

Finally the windows phone app.

There is no official release yet.

---

Known file limitations:

• You can launch any associated app in Remote Files view through phone's Internet Explorer. Local files cannot be opened in Explorer (Security Setting).

• Local files can be viewed by stripped down Internet Explorer-View if their are HTML or text-based files.

• Image files should be accessible via Internet Explorer too.

• Audio & media files could be opened via API call to build-in MediaPlayer (if the media type will be recognized).

• Currently there is no possibility to open Office-based files or PDF-documents from local storage (remote files will work).

• No chance to edit any file. A tiny text editor is planned but all other file types are a hard piece of work.

• However for WP8 there will be so called "file and uri associations" which will enable some kind of communication between apps and make file extensions callable.

windows-phone's Issues

Use the calendar control in the month calendar page

The calendar control and the database calendar model still needs a multi user support

Create new event

It has to be possible to create new event.

A small calendar selection has to be placed in the appointment page for that.

Connection with sockets

Hello,

i saw you created a own TLS/Sockets Implementation.

Is this necessary because windows phone does not really support https?

If this sould be true, i have to use this too...
I've used the default HttpWebRequest now.

Using database instead of files

Hey @framedynamic ,

i want to suggest to use a database for storing the account data. We could use the SQLCE class "CalendarDataContext". (Maybe rename it to "OwncloudDataContext").

A database should be faster and more comfortable because we don't have to serialize the complete data every time.

So we have all data at one place (except the synced files)

Core Change: Only support Windows Phone 8 / VS 2013

Hey guys,

in order to make this project flexible for the future, we should fully switch from WP7 to WP8. Also, we should consider converting the solution-file to Visual Studio 2013.

Pros:

• targetting Windows Phone 8 is possible (this makes features like file-assiciation, new live tiles etc. possible, also WP8 is much faster than WP7)
• targetting Windows 8.1/RT is possible
• creating a PCL is possible, so we can share code for both WP8 and W8

Cons:

• no legacy support for Windows Phone 7.x
• everyone who wants to collaborate needs Visual Studio 2013 (Express versions are not supported)

Hint: Visual Studio 2013 is free for students (-> see https://www.dreamspark.com/Product/Product.aspx?productid=72)

What do you think?

Regards,
Marcel

Notifications

We have to implement notifications for events.

It would be really cool

Create PCL to support both Windows Phone and Windows 8/RT

Move all code that accesses ownCloud-APIs to a PCL, so we can create an app for both windows phone and windows with maximum code share

How can I build a WPF windows desktop version from this code

I want to build a windows desktop version of the owncloud. I'm not comfortable with the fact that the desktop client source code available on GitHub isn't available in C#. So I am thinking of using the code to develop a WPF version of the owncloud client for windows desktop. All forms of helpful suggestions would be welcomed.

Windows 10 Update?

Any plans to refactor this for the looming windows 10 universal app deployment structure?

New Calendar First update problem

When i enable a calendar it does not getting an update. This will may be fixed by setting the CTag initially to null/0

Events does not getting updated, when they changing on server

MethodNotFound Exception on Sync

In some cases the CalendarSync throws a MethodNotFound exception on invoking the complete handler. Only on Windows Phone 7.1/7.8. On a Windows Phone 8 everything works.

Fix ICal Multiline Parsing/Writing

Theres is a bug, that in some cases events with a multiline description cant be written correctly. It should be fixed in the EncodedTokenValue.cs EncodeValue(string value) Methode

A Environment.NewLine in the ical file is not a linebreak in the value. A linebreak sould be a \\n.

Use the calendar control in the month calendar page

The calendar control and the database calendar model still needs a multi user support

Merge existing code

Try to connect the existing code of @framedynamic with the calDav code.

DAV structure was not recognized. Please check the server paths

I just got the OwnCloud Windows Phone verison from GitHub, I am trying to use the App, while trying to add an account, I'm required to enter a WebDAV, I didn't know what this mean until I searched online, and I thought I could just replace the owncloud client in the default with our owncloud web url which I entered into the Host, but from the app I am getting an error saying DAV structure was not recognized. Please check the server paths. Server answer: method not allowed

Only check and add caldav if enabled

The Admin can disable the calendar App on owncloud therefore the calendar on the windows phone client should only be optional and there shouldn't be any error message if caldav isn't found.

Apply MVVM-Pattern

Create ViewModels and move a lot of code to the ViewModel (which also could be shared between Windows Phone and Windows 8/RT)

Tips:

• use the MVVM Light Framework
• use AppBarUtils, so AppBars can make use of DataBinding and Commands

How can I disable WebDAV and CalDav on the mobile client

I want the connection to the owncloud server to be via HTTP only, how do I do this

"Wrong parameter" exception by adding control to tile view

Using the WP-Toolkit/Wrappanel causes an "wrong parameter" exception by adding the FileMultiViewControl-Item to tile view. But this happens not all time. I cannot resolve it.

Any one who can help?

ActiveSync support for calendar

Alex, could you think about change your calendar gui from DAV to ActiveSync?

I don't think that MS will change the policy to enable DAV except for Google. I think the gui would be still needed as the normal calendar could not be extended to some features in future (also lacks in support to OC-messages) - so your work is welcome but the phone simply needs support to sync contacts and there is no work around.

In my company many questions raised about adding ActiveSync support to OC, and I think i will contribute to issue owncloud/core#3410.

The type or namespace LinkUnlinkEventArgs could not be found

In the CalendarDaysDataContext.cs file, line 35, it says the type or namespace LinkUnlinkEventArgs could not be found, are you missing a using directive or using statement

Calendar/Contact Sync on WP

Hi,
this might be interesting for you:
I just found this manual for syncing your WP with OwnCloud/other CalDav-Calendars: http://stadt-bremerhaven.de/windows-phone-update-bringt-caldav-und-carddav-fuer-die-synchronisation-mit-google-daten/#comment-373275
Basically you just create a new Google Account, restart your phone and (while the account is not syncing) put in the right CalDav/CardDav adresses

Pin Calendar to startpage

It sould be possible to pin a account to the start page, so you get directly to the calendars/files of that account.
