youRant alpha 0.2 - The Notification Update!
https://github.com/yuriKhordal/...
Managed to finish this update JUST in time, literally going away for the deployment tomorrow.
First of all, Yay, with the addition of notifications, it's first **actual** alpha release (until now I considered releases as MVP.
New Features and Changes:
+ Added Caching. Rants and Images are now cached for a certain amount of time speeding up re-opening rants, not needing to load them again.
+ Added automatic retries for the dreaded Slim Application Error! GET requests will now retry up to 5 times before giving up. The error message in the app now also actually says it's a Slim Application Error instead of the previous unclear "Value <html><head><meta..." error.
+ Added devRant avatars in posts and comments, replacing the previous flat-coloured dots, now only actual dots are dots. :P Also replaced the ugly red dot that shows you are logged in with your actual avatar.
+ Added Notifications for mentions, using the RSS feed provided by retoor. They are currently limited, and do not work in the background for some reason. Regardless, when you open the app you will get notifications of all mentions since the last time notifications worked.
+ Added a limited profile page you can open by clicking the username row in a rant or comment. Currently only dispplays user info, but not actual content(rants, comments, upvotes, favories).
Bug Fixes:
* There was a function in a helper class that was accidentally using a feature of a high API level. It was rewritten.
