RFG App for Android: The official thread!

[toze3]

It's this git : https://github.com/bickman2k/RFGeneration (a clone of the original )

I don't know about programming but for adding the nitendo switch maybe it´s only adding the following line, in the file app/src/main/java/com/jgrue/rfgeneration/data/RFGenerationData.java:

Code:

ih.prepareForInsert(); ih.bind(id, 231); ih.bind(name, "Nintendo Switch"); ih.bind(abbv, "NS"); ih.execute();

NS is just an option for abreviature it could be other, about the code is this correct?

I just submited this change on github, but I don't have means to build the app and test it, if you can build i can test if it works

[bickman2k]

Yeah, the code on Github is actually out of date compared to what's on my machine. I did find that line of code is where it sits, but I plan on attempting to get the fix in there and test possibly this weekend. Still have to get the Developer account set up on Google Play as well. But I may tap you to have you test out the new apk if you don't mind.

You could tap into the console list to automatically support new systems.
List of consoles and IDs: http://api.rfgeneration.com/v1/consoles/
Abbreviations (Replace the number on the end with the requested system ID): http://api.rfgeneration.com/v1/consoles/040
Perhaps just add a button somewhere to update the list.

I used those to make this ages ago: http://mumboking.byethost24.com/RFGen/ConsoleInfo/
Everything is updated automatically.

Sure, no problem!


And the Abrev should be SW and not NS as i did.

I think part of the reason why it's not done that way is because of the way it will sync locally. It doesn't require Internet access unless you search or manually sync your collection.

do we have some one working it, or are we still looking?

I'm working on it. Hit an issue with the newly compiled one. Going to see if I can get just the new console stuff added and pushed back to the store until I can get some more work done on other fixes in the app.

[bickman2k]

Well, it appears that I at least have the latest consoles added to the app. To install my copy would require a full uninstall/reinstall and then another when it hit the Play Store. I'll do some digging in to what we would need to get this back listed again so we can hopefully get this going again.

Did we lose the app on the Google Play store? I had to factory reset my phone and when i went to re download it, it doesn't show up anymore.   

[Shadow Kisuragi]

It was removed due to new Google policies, potentially around fake 3rd party applications.
Bickman's working on getting it posted to the Google Play store under our own account, along with a couple bug fixes that he posted here before (including addition of Nintendo Switch console).

For now, the old version can be found on various APK sites, such as the following:
