#NewPipe #SailfishOS dev diary day 65. Moving forwards with app permissions and adding the little thumbnail images in the search listing!

Today I got the search results hooked up to the front end, so the application finally has some functionality! It's still early days, but making progress.

@fede improbable #sailfishOS even exists, sitll survives. Earlier versions also looked 'improbable' cause their #glow effects.
#NewPipe #SailfishOS dev diary day 61. Finally an asynchronous YouTube search invoked from a Sailfish OS app.
There's no feedback to the user interface yet, no way to play videos, in fact no much of anything. But it's a base to build on.
@fede I'm back using #sailfishos. It is not perfect, but I still prefer it to other systems. I really like the UI of sailfish + freedom that comes with the linux system. Not using it for banking, even if there seens to be an app (Zaster) for some banks. To check travel connections I use Fahrplan, and I am happy with it.
@fede add #SailfishOS's #improbability bonus...
#NewPipe #SailfishOS dev diary day 60. Some final cmake wrestling to be done.
Getting the executable to identify the library location at runtime.
I have a need to track events in my calendar. These aren't events I'm attending, I just need to know when they are happening. The calendar apps I have tried only allow me to enter events I'm attending (which reserves my time).
Is there an app on Sailfish or Fdroid that can natively allow noting events that one isn't attending?
Read my next post for the inelegant solution I am using currently.

#NewPipe #SailfishOS dev diary day 59.
Attempting to get the library picked up at runtime, using the rpath, the environment, frankly anything I can think of!
After deactivating Android battery optimisations for #Signal – as it requested – my battery drains ~1.5x as fast and my phone is always warm. Y U no use #UnifiedPush? >.<
The worst part: I cannot even disable it again, as the Android settings of #SailfishOS do not provide a pathway towards battery settings.
I want my desktop Linux with config files back.
#NewPipe #SailfishOS dev diary day 58. Following @vige's advice: switching from qmake to cmake.
Turns out not to be as challenging as I'd initially feared!
When using the Sailfish IDE with a CMake project, the option to add files or classes to the project is disabled in the Projects view.
Does anyone know if there's some way to allow this? It's by no means a dealbreaker, but I've become quite used to using it when working with qmake projects.
Maybe one for you @vige?

You can install #SailfishOS on a couple of Sony phones (https://shop.jolla.com/details/12596a34-597b-47d4-a502-c0ef15d2a4de/). Maybe one of these is more to your liking?
@islieb
Ich habe zwar ein Handy, aber weder ein iPhone noch ein Android-Telefon ( #SailfishOS ) aber das reicht völlig, um genau diesen Eindruck (naja, vielleicht nicht ganz genau, aber schon sehr nah dran! ) zu bekommen.
#NewPipe #SailfishOS dev diary day 57. Finally a running app with a #QML user interface and linked to the NewPipe Extractor library.
It's not yet functional, but it'll make for a good base to build on.
#NewPipe #SailfishOS dev diary day 56. Finalising the Docker build container (still using Debian Buster... maybe it'll be a proper Sailfish OS install in the future).
