The notfification APIs now use NotificationSpec as their only parameter, which
contains all information (required and optional ones).
We no longer have separate methods and actions for SMS/EMAIL/GENERIC anymore.
The type of notification is important now, not how we received them technically.
This tries to control the last player that played a (new) song.
It is very limited since we cannot get the source of an intent.
Instead we try to guess from the Action.
The problem is that we cannot support players that use only the action "com.android.music.XXXX" and not something own.
Also try to blindly support getting spotify metadata (for testing #112)
Previously, the DeviceCommunicationService was invoked directly,
via
Intent intent = new Intent(foo, bar);
intent.setExtra(EXTRA_BAZ, baz);
startService(...);
and this was scattered throughout GadgetBridge.
Now there is a "frontend" available, so that you can call
the service more easily, like
GBApplication.deviceService().connect();
For a start, this client interface (DeviceService) actually
implements the same interface (EventHandler) as the receiving side
(DeviceSupport). This may change in the future.
This will also make testing much easier, because we can use
this client interface to invoke the test service as well.
- model package contains mostly shared interfaces (UI+service), not named GB*
- impl package contains implementations of those interfaces, named GB*
the impl classes should not be used by the service (not completely done)
- the service classes should mostly use classes inside the service and deviceevents
packages (tbd)
Every device now has two packages:
- devices/[device name] for UI related functionality
- service[device name] for lowlevel communication
For a start, use android-logger as backend. Needs a better configuration
but no time right now.
For file-logging we will use logback as slf4j-implementation.
