Kuma mon. Just to say that you did a good job. Love your app, been using it everyday.

First post got no code tag shown
2nd quoted post will have like code tag shown in background like water mark.

And ts run road liao. Sad.

It's a tiring job plus no rewards... But still mus thank him for the efforts..

Still abit bugs here and there, but still good to surf.

Hi all,

Sorry to MIA. Unfortunately yes I dont think I will be upgrading or supporting this app anymore due to work/social life etc. I believed all the features that are needed has already been implemented into this app. Dont worry all the functionality in the app such as pager will still work.

I do read through the comments inside the thread, there are still issues here and there, but i do believe it's not really that major. My app is not 100% perfect, there will be some issues like missing content in one or two unique posts or minor bugs which yall have encountered randomly..but in all, i can say that it doesn't really affect much. If you need to read the post that has the missing/incorrect content, I do have a button which open the thread in the web browser, you can check it there. That is the only solution I can give you for now.

Thank you so much for all your support until now.

 

[BlackCube]

ok, if you not supporting anymore, then i will not be reporting any more bugs.

Can open source the code?

 

[BlackCube]

Can open source the code?

Haha wanted to ask also but didn't.

Since u asked, then maybe someone can take over and continue development lo. provided ts is willing to

 

[kuma-mon]

Sorry i dont think i can make my code open source.

Someone got asked before, I got explained why, its in an earlier post in this thread, lazy to find lol. Another reason would be, there is a risk of exposing the database directory which contains confidential user data. This is dangerous.

Anyway guys, sorry to bring some bad news but pager will be down, or paused temporary from 1st nov to 15 nov. Reason being is i'm going overseas for holiday and there is no one to supervise/maintain the pager server. Someone have to supervise because the pager will sometimes stop due to connection errors or exception errors, so have to restart the pager again. It occurs randomly, once every 3/4 days. I can recommend you guys to use nubitol edmw innosia pager if you like for now

You can open source the app without exposing the database and the credentials what. Like you put in github, still controlled by you. The those who wants to contribute, do pull request.

But to think about it, why need to store the confidential data in your own db?

 

[BlackCube]

Yeah. There's no need to expose db data or credentials.

You can push the DB schema up. So whoever running can just run script to populate the tables etc.

And yeah. Shouldn't have any confidential data right? Unless your confidential data refers to who page who which isn't confidential and can be wiped.

bug report:

when i set the default page as hwc it remembers (first time)

(2nd time)but if i set the default page to edmw after that it forgets and the page shows edmw but the actual page is hwc

 

[BlackCube]

No longer need to report since TS won't be continuing any development of the app.

 

[kuma-mon]

Hi,

Okay sorry perhaps i didn't explain clear enough.

By making my android app code open source, there is a risk of exposing the db directory and also the PHP, node JS scripts because they are open for all to see in the code. Sorry this will be too technical. In Java, there are many types of connections one can use to connect to DB and other scripts. Example would be using JDBC connection. If i make it open source, everyone can see the direct link and credentials to the DB. Another example would be volley, to access PHP scripts on the server from the app itself. So it is risky and dangerous.

And yes, the DB do contain many confidential data. Like the usernames and GCM ID of users who uses pager.

Eh, the purpose of open sourcing it is to let everyone see the source code? Pull, modify, push, fork, branch, etc etc.

There is no need to expose the credentials for your connection to DB or whatever service that you may have. You can leave them as blank if you like.

Not asking you to expose your database, so no data is required to be shown. You want to keep your DB, wipe your DB, up to you.

You don't need to provide any actual access to your own server/DB. You provide your source code, db schema, and what needs to setup or run (Readme.md). So anyone can grab and setup themselves and run if they wish to.

Alternatively, if you do wish to keep this project alive, and someone is interested to take over. Then you can setup a private repository (Github, BitBucket, etc) so the person can continue development and you have the absolute control over it.

These are just suggestion, and by no means that you have to go through with it.

Well a server class application shouldn’t be so fragile. In any case, you will want to read up on “monit” and let it monitor your app and restart the process/service if necessarily.

 

[muddywaters]

No wondwr the pager doesn't work now.

or he could have just setup a cronjob to restart every 5minutes
