Re: [SailfishDevel] Harbour rules and faq

2014-01-13 Thread Andreas Enbacka

Hello,

I also have to agree with Gabriel on this one, the polcies for Harbour 
need to be made much more clearer. At the moment it is not inspiring 
working of Sailfish development due to the store issues. I would expect 
that Jolla would indeed need as many developers as only possible 
onboard, and to aid that, the Harbour rules needs to be made clearer / 
substantially more relaxed. More native applications are indeed needed 
as the Android integration currently seems to be everything else than 
optimal.


Regards,
Andreas Enbacka

Ohh nice, I planed to use DBUS for few features, good that I have not 
implemented a lot so far.



Why will DBUS also be restricted? There are just a small amount to 
nearly no, save to use APIs. There are nearly no offical APIs, just 
some Nemo middle ware stuff that works - maybe, but is not allowed at 
harbour.



What about device feedback, what about notifications, what about 
sharing options, what about deamons, now also DBUS will be restricted. 
DBUS was an option to work around missing notifications. :-/



I'm sure it's difficult and hard for a small team, but hey come on you 
wanted it. And if you can't solve/realise things atm, be open and 
different - talk to use, tell your plans, show what can be expected 
when. Talk to your devs, maybe let's discuss ideas, make plans 
together. But don't be shy and say nothing and came in the next moment 
with any - positive or negative suprise.



Gabriel.

Hi there, habour supporters and moderators.

Please, please, really PLEASE do update your 
https://harbour.jolla.com/faq AND MAKE CLEAN RULES what is restricted 
and what is not.


This is not the game where we should guess your imaginary rules.

This is just ridiculous to submit apps, wait for 4 days and then get 
response that app is rejected with new , since "This application uses 
a DBus API which should not be used by 3rd party applications, and 
will be restricted soon.".


How the hell I should know what will be restricted and will not?

If you not sure about anything at harbour in the future, create white 
list of what is allowed, like qml imports and link libraries.


Do you understand, that it is impossible to create any usefull and 
complex application, which is not "a one-page + one-button + 
haha-look-at-my-cover-it-is-awesome" when you does not share your 
plans for future and does not supply strict rules?

All your ecosystem depends on this.

Regards,
Basil.

Re: [SailfishDevel] Harbour QA process...

2014-01-10 Thread Andreas Enbacka

Thanks for the support :)

I will develop QSpot for SailfishOS, timetable however depends on when 
certain libs will be whitelisted / allowed. I could also consider 
publishing an alpha for testing somewhere else. I hope that the QA 
process will be improved and eased, and possible more automation added. 
Having submitted apps to several app stores, e.g., WP Store and Google 
Play, I would stay Google Play is a good example how it should work.


//Andreas

2014/1/10 Andreas Enbacka :

I would like to agree with Franck on this. I have also partly held off
developing for SailfishOS due to e.g., the Harbour process, as well as due
to APIs my apps need to are not allowed.

This seems backwards; if no cool apps exist for SailfishOS that use
certain API's, what's the incentive for Jolla to allow them in
Harbour?

Please please do develop for SailfishOS and *make* Jolla beg and
promise anything to get your superb app submitted to Harbour! ;)

I would like to agree with Franck on this. I have also partly held off 
developing for SailfishOS due to e.g., the Harbour process, as well as 
due to APIs my apps need to are not allowed. I think that in case Jolla 
wants developers to focus on developing native apps for SailfishOS, many 
improvments are needed in this area.

Hi,

currently, the Harbour QA process is quite frustrating, as problems
are reported one after the other, with a delay of several days
inbetween... reminds me of the old time cobol compilators!

It would be cool if the efforts made by the developper to provide free
native application were a bit more considered.

Ok, I'm talking out of frustration, but I had my app rejected first
because of naming conventions of the app itself (I didn't properly
read the FAQ, but it is not stated either in the app submission page
of Harbour), delay of 7 days, then because of rmp file naming
convention (which I did not find clearly stated except in the
rejection notification - 5 more days). Now I am waiting for next step
(2 days for now...)

I understand this is a lot of work, but what I suggest is :
- - more controls and more information in the app submission page
(testing the naming conventions of at least the files seems trivial)
- - when doing QA, report all problems at once, not just the first one
- - maybe provide a QA tool so that developpers could do this job and
let jolla teams concentrate on real QA (power consumption, security
checks, ...)

Hope this does not sound too demanding...

Best regards,
Franck

[SailfishDevel] QAudioOutput and raw/pcm audio output

2013-12-16 Thread Andreas Enbacka

Hello,

What codes are supported currently on SailfishOS using QAudioOutput? In 
my QSpot application I am writing raw PCM audio directly (using push) to 
QAudioOutput, however I get absolutely no sound output (tested on the 
emulator, and also on SailfishOS port running on N950). Is this the 
expected behaviour, and in such case, are any solutions available?

Hello,

Thanks for the info, I will at some point prepare a version for testing 
and post a link to the rpm.


//Andreas


if you drop by in efnet irc #sailfishos channel, there are people with real 
devices, and we have been testing rpm packages that people have pointer url's 
at. Or we are also happy to test packages that you give urls in this mailing 
list.

Subject: [SailfishDevel] Sailfish app - testing on real device

Hello,

I am working on porting QSpot Spotify client to SailfishOS, and wondered
how reliable testing should be performed. Currently I can test  the
application on the Emulator; however I have issues with no sound and
random application startup issues (not present on current N9/N900
version of QSpot based on the same code / library).

Should I assume that these could be issues with the emulator, and it
might work correctly on the real Jolla device? And is the only current
possibility to get real device test feedback to submit a rpm package to
the Jolla Harbour?

Re: [SailfishDevel] Jolla Harbour and Jolla Store

2013-11-08 Thread Andreas Enbacka


Hello,

Some questions concerning Android application submission to Jolla Harbour:

1) What Android API levels are supported?
2) Are Android applications that utilize Play Services compatible with 
SailfishOS (e.g., use Android notifications etc.)


Thanks,
Andreas Enbacka

Ahoy all,

Today we're launching Jolla Harbour , the portal for 
submitting applications to the Jolla Store.
You can submit and manage your applications. Consumers will be able to install 
them directly from their Jolla phones.

Here are some details about Jolla Harbour:
  
Joining and logging into Jolla Harbour:

Joining is free! You can create a Jolla account from the Jolla Harbour landing 
page (harbour.jolla.com) or if you have pre-ordered your Jolla phone, you have 
everything you need to get started. To manage your account details, please 
visit account.jolla.com.
  
Support for Sailfish and Androidâ„¢ applications:

You can submit both Sailfish and Androidâ„¢ applications to Jolla Harbour. The 
submission process is the same.
  
Start with free applications:

At launch, the Jolla Harbour and Jolla Store will support only free 
applications. We are working hard to enable payment solutions and we will keep 
you posted about these capabilities as they develop.
  
Binary package naming:

You will receive naming guidelines when you upload the binary package to Jolla 
Harbour. You can also find guidelines on versioning at http://semver.org.
  
Preparing your metadata:

Jolla Harbour needs to know a few things about your app:
  - An app icon for the Store  (86x86px, png) (Current SDK supports 90x90px 
images; more details to follow soon)
  - 1-3 screenshots (540x960px, png or jpg)
  - An optional Cover image for your Store page (516x252px, png or jpg)
  
Submission process:

To submit your application to Jolla Harbour, fill in the metadata for it and 
upload the binary and required images. After you have submitted your app, Jolla 
will start Quality Assurance testing.
  
Quality Assurance testing:

Jolla will perform QA testing on your applications on real Jolla devices. We 
will get back to you with feedback on your app within a few days. You will be 
notified on the QA results via the email address you have registered to your 
Jolla account.
  
  
If you encounter any issues, please contact us by email, developer-c...@jolla.com, or report them to the Sailfish developers mailing list at devel at lists.sailfishos.org.


Happy hacking!
The Jolla Store Team

[SailfishDevel] No audio codecs on SailfishOS emulator

2013-09-16 Thread Andreas Enbacka


Hello everyone,

I am currently working on porting the QSpot Spotify client to SailfishOS 
using the latest SDK based on Qt5 and QtQuick2. However, I have problems 
using QAudioOutput class on the emulator; when using push-mode and 
calling write method with the pcm audio data, it returns 0. Also, 
QAudioDeviceInfo::supportedCodecs returns an empty list.


Is it so that audio playback using QAudioOutput is not currently 
supported on the SailfishOS emulator? Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Andreas Enbacka
