`gen_layouts.py` lists the layouts in `res/xml` and generate the `pref_layout_values` and `pref_layout_entries` arrays into `res/values/layouts.xml`. These arrays are hard to maintain as the order has to match, which is fragile. This relies on every layouts having a `name` attribute.
The script `check_layout.py` checks some properties about layouts. No check is an error. The result of running this script on every layouts is stored in the file `check_layout.output`, which is useful to track changes. Add make rules to run this script as well as `sync_translations`.
The required version of fontforge (from 2020!) is not available in many distros. This is an annoying for contributors and greatly complicated the CI and F-Droid scripts. The generated font file is now included in the sources. Fontforge is still needed when adding new glyphs but this is not a common operation.
Fails to update on some versions of Android without it.
Android 6 uses Java 1.7, the only incompatible feature in use was lambdas.
* Cache dependencies on CI workflow * Use available fontforge version for CI action Avoid a dirty OS upgrade to get a newer version of FontForge, use what is available at Ubuntu 20.04 * Upgrade CI Workflow By using an appimage of FontForge, it's easier to install the latest version, to cache it, and there is no extra dependencies clashes with Ubuntu 20.04 * Make paths for fontforge absolute in makefile It's necessary because fontforge is an AppImage and requires it * Improve cache step on CI wget don't download a duplicate if file already exists * Generate base64 ascii encoded debug keystore That can be used to transfer the keystore to a Github Secret * Restore debug.keystore from github secrets Get the asc encoded keystore from github secrets, and decode it back to a bynary file inside the CI run. * Cleanup redundant lines and add explanation comment * runs-on ubuntu-latest Co-authored-by: Jules Aguillon <jules@j3s.fr> * add *.keystore.asc to .gitignore * Clean up lines, adjust documentation * use CURDIR automatic makefile variable Co-authored-by: Jules Aguillon <jules@j3s.fr>
Recover the provenance of each glyphs and remove the base_font.ttf file.
Keep the glyphs in SVG format and build the font using a FontForge script. A part of the previous font is kept because the sources is lost. This adds a new dependency to the build system, fontforge.
Using the --product option of aapt. Remove the app name from translations because it is never translated. It is still possible to translate it by specifying 'product="default"'.
