Where can I find the latest Movesense Showcase app source? - swift

According to https://www.movesense.com/news/2020/02/movesense-showcase-ios-app-is-now-open-source/ the showcase app source is open source. But the source code that’s there in the repo is at least couple of versions behind in terms of UI.
Is there an updated repo location for the latest? Our client is looking at the app in AppStore thinking the source code should be the same.

Well, the source code in the repository is exactly the same as has been used for generating and compiling the app store version. Could you please make sure you are using the master branch of this repo: https://bitbucket.org/suunto/movesense-mobile-lib/ ?
Also, please make sure that you are opening the folder MovesenseShowcase in xcode, not IOS-example (which is the old example app for iOS)
In addition, please make sure you are using Xcode 11 (latest) and following the instructions in readme.md

Workflow to upgrade a Flutter project/application

I have several Flutter projects that I have been working with for some time. Some a rather new and others are older. I constantly upgrade my Flutter SDK and switch between stable and beta channels. Everything works but the newer projects have different file layouts, for example .gitignore in android/ios folders, new XCode config files etc.
How do I update an older project to the new layout so as if it was just generated with flutter create?
Also there is this .metadata file generated which makes no sense to me. It never gets updated and only has it's project_type read by flutter_tools during flutter create. What is this for, why is it not being updated to the correct channel/rev?
Due to my research for the former question, I have run flutter create . in an existing project which generates some new files. Is this the only way, together with manually diffing to a new pristine project? And why is the .metadata file still outdated?
If anyone has some insights or documentation links regarding this, that would be great. I didn't find anything.
Update:
Apparently one can update the initially generated Flutter configuration files by re-running flutter create ..
Old:
Somewhat answering my own question here.
On March 3rd a commit was added to Flutter that added the notion of migrations to the iOS template/configuration (https://github.com/flutter/flutter/commit/e491544588e8d34fdf31d5f840b4649850ef167a).
These migrations take care of bringing the XCode configuration files to the latest version.
This commit has been ported back until Flutter 1.15.x.
This a great step forward. Hopefully similar migrations will be added for Android configurations and basic project files in the future.

Can't link ionic app to ionic pro account

I have a monolith jhispter app and an ionic-jhipster app both working fine together (Thanks to Matt Raible and JHipster team). And I'm not sure if my problem has anything to do with JHipster.
Since I'm working on windows, I thought maybe I'd be better to use Ionic Pro cloud services to build my app for ios and Android. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
Here is the process I went through:
1-I added my Ionic app on GitHub. So, I'm using GitHub as my Source Control
2-I used "ionic ssh setup" command to create SSH public/private keys and I believe it took care of generating the keys and putting them in the right place I guess I didn't have to generate the SSH keys since it could work just by my user name and password too. Is that right?
3-I went to my app's folder and used "ionic link" to link my existing app to my Ionic Pro dashboard
4-In answer to existing app or new app (which was not clear to me what it's asking for), I chose new app since GaëlMarziou helped me in the comments section to understand there should be an app already created in my Ionic Pro so I can link my local app to it. It took me a while so I understood this prompt is asking about the dashboard app not my local app. I chose "new" since it was the first time I was using my Ionic Pro account and I had no app on it.
5-Then it asked about the source control and I chose GitHub and provided the credentials
6-Then it showed me a list of my repositories on GitHub so I can choose one. But before I do anything it just jumped out with no error/success messages. And I considered it done since I had the same names for my app and GitHub repository and I thought maybe it was smart enough to find the correct repository.
Now, I can see an app in my Ionic Pro dashboard but the build and commit history is empty and it looks like the app is not linked yet.
I tried "git push origin master" to build my app when I was in my Ionic app folder. I assume "origin" would work for any git repository, am I right? It tells me everything is up-to-date and nothing happens in my Ionic Pro dashboard.

Using Firebase with tvOS

When I try to use the Firebase framework with tvOS (via cocoapods) I get the following error:
Target 'Pods-Portal TV' of project 'Pods' was rejected as an implicit dependency for 'Pods_Portal_TV.framework' because it doesn't contain platform 'appletvsimulator' in its SUPPORTED_PLATFORMS 'iphonesimulator, iphoneos'
I 'tricked' cocoapods to install the framework due to it not recognizing tvOS as a supported platform, by declaring the target as :ios.
So it's easy to see what the problem is. My question: Is it possible to work around this until Firebase officially supports tvOS?
EDIT (8/5/17): tvOS support is being added to the open source Firebase SDK in issue #10. Please follow along there and contribute!
Firebase developer here.
I've built a beta version of the Firebase framework for tvOS, and I'm happy to share with folks so they can give feedback. Please email me at mcdonald firebase com for access.
EDIT (7/28/16): Given the date on this post and the huge Firebase release at Google I/O 2016, there are a few extra caveats I should add to what this library does.
This is a version of the 2.x client and will work with the database on all projects. Authentication however, will not work with projects created after 5/18/2016.
This client is not compatible with Nest, as Nest only supports the 1.x Firebase clients.
EDIT (8/27/16): Please fill out this form to let us know you'd like support for Firebase on other platforms (macOS, tvOS, watchOS).
EDIT (10/29/21): Firebase 8.9.0 introduces official beta support for macOS, tvOS, and Catalyst. watchOS continues to be community supported.
Ok, so I got it working, albeit, a bit flaky.
This is a very quick guide as to how, at the time of writing.
First you need to setup CocoaPods to use unreleased features and get the master branch of cocoapods / cocoapods-core
Then you need to create a private spec repo or use mine
Remember to set your xcode path to your beta version of xcode sudo xcode-select -s /Applications/Xcode-Beta.app/Contents/Developer otherwise the spec won't build.
Then set your source to your spec file, and set the platform to platform :tvos, '9.0' in your Podfile, then pod install.
Your Project should then build and run, but with about 155 warnings:
ld: warning: URGENT: building for tvOS simulator, but linking in object file (/Users/..../..../.... /tvOS/Pods/Firebase/Firebase.framework/Firebase(FPendingPut.o)) built for iOS. Note: This will be an error in the future.
So obviously not a solid solution. Definately not a production solution. But hopefully Firebase will add support in the future. I spoke to Frank from the Firebase team who said that he will take it up at the next feature discussion to see if they want to include it. Here's to hoping they will :)
Also, I had to Comment out the Accounts/Accounts.h import statement in the FAuthData.h for some reason? I don't know if anyone can elaborate on that
Getting some progress from the open source community lately, I just got auth/database working after one or two hours, mostly fighting with the podfile. Seems to work, check out https://github.com/firebase/firebase-ios-sdk#community-supported-efforts

Updating Ionic Apps in real time

I'm a web developer, new to Ionic.But I can't find out how can I update my app on the server,like a website,and without having user redownload the app.Is there any solutions?
Thanks!
There's an available plugin you can use Cordova-hot-code-push
This plugin provides functionality to perform automatic updates of the web based content in your application.Basically, everything that is stored in www folder of your Cordova project can be updated using this plugin.
supported platforms: Android 4.0.0 or above.
iOS 7.0 or above. Xcode 7 is required.
It has a great wiki too.
Yes, as of recently there is a solution for this. Ionic calls it Ionic Deploy, and you can see the official documentation about it here.
However, one must note that this is still in Alpha version and they don't recommend it for production, but since they're very apt in shipping new features, I'm sure this will be even production ready very soon.

Building MobileVLCKit from git.videolan.org repository on macOsX with XCode

I would like to make an application for iOS(iPhone and iPad) that can play streaming videos through RTSP protocol (that includes mms). I imagined to achive a specified application using VLC player or libVLC library.
On the official vlc git repository (http://git.videolan.org/?p=vlc.git;a=tree) in projects/macosx/framework/ folder there is xcode project MobileVLCKit.xcodeproj for which I assume that is a somewhat usable VLC framework for iOS.
Now the problem is that I can't/don't know how to build this project. When I try to build MobileVLCKit.xcodeproj I get an error that says it can't find files inside extras/contrib/hosts/i686-apple-darwin10/ios/ folder.
I have looked within that folder (extras/contrib) and managed to create folder (with files) extras/contrib/hosts/i686-apple-darwin10/ with make, but there is no ios folder.
So, does anybody knows how to successfully build MobileVLCKit?
$ git clone git://git.videolan.org/MobileVLC.git
$ cd MobileVLC
$ ./buildMobileVLC.sh
See:
http://wiki.videolan.org/MobileVLC
Note, using any portion of VLC in your app, makes your app open source and GPL.
i am fighting to build this ios version.
if you git clone the today the version, ,you'ld find a more complete with ios support into the extra folder : extra/contrib/src/Distributions/ios.mak and extra/package/ios/build_for_iOS.sh
extra/contrib/bootstrap is now "ios" compliant !
be aware this version need ios4.2 (see build_for_iOS.sh)
i have problems with ffmpeg but it's another story
vlc build for ios need a "howto" !!!
the entry point is "build_for_iOS.sh" build_for_iOS.sh calls bootstrap
when this is done correctly (good luck), MobileVLCKit will find the files it needs (i hope)
Don't use git to get the most recently source code。
Since vlc is not available for iOS。
but you can get mobilevlc 1.1.0, from videolan.com
http://www.videolan.org/vlc/download-ios.html
and you 'd better install Xcode 3.2.5 and iOS SDK 4.2
