We worked on several fixes. Unfortunately ICS is still not fully
supported, however it might will be more stable.
In the python projects we have so far :
- we reduced the initial 16 MB to 2.6 MB, this is the overhead of
python+twisted. If that's the cost of easier development, let it be.
- we finished a notification system. The plan is that everything
(chat, new calls, new messages, changes of the volume control) pushed
to the browser using 1 ajax request. There is a unified javascript
platform to reach that (it calls your functions on events).
We ask a couple of more days to release an initial version. We are
still talking about a pure version (no screenshot of the phone,
nothing works), but it will be a good base to start. It takes much
time and effort now to start, but I can see all the problems what we
had before, and try to avoid them. For instance the i18n, html
templating, reach of sl4a methods, etc. It will be fun :)
Best wishes,
Peter
I've prepared an initial python version, but the service doesn't get
started in the apk. I'm sorry this takes so long, I'll publish the apk
as soon as I fix it.
http://androidwebkey.com/html/python.zip
You can either push these files to a phone, rewrite the start.sh to
match the directories, and start it after giving chmod 755 to start.sh
and to the python binary (these things will be done by the apk). Or
the easier way: I prefer run it on a pc. I've tested only linux.
Simply start it by
python webkey.py
And connect to http://127.0.0.1:8080.
Please let me know if you have any problems starting this test
environment. This code does nearly nothing, but it runs on the phone,
and it's a start. We want to put this code to google-code or github,
but it would require a project name. We are thinking about giving this
project a name which is different of Webkey. The reason is simple: it
would be great to have a project name which is available as a domain
(something.com), on twitter and on google-code/github. Do you have any
idea?
Thanks,
Peter
