Roxum Ide Not Starting

[Fynbix]

It just stucks on "Setting Things Up" forever. I even left it for 1 hour still it was at 0%.

Could you tell me about your device and android version? Have you tried reinstalling the app?
Also, where did you download it from? Playstore, external source or built from source?

[Fynbix]

Walton Primo H9 Pro
Android 10

Source:- PlayStore

I reinstalled many time's but same problem.

[heckmon]

The problem is that google instructed me to update the min SDK version (which is used to build android apps) to 26 (it was 21 in the previous version).They showed me that 749 devices will be unsupported. Otherwise google won't let me update the app in playstore. Because, it's there policy that every developers should use the recommended sdk.

Because of this change, old phones wouldn't support any new versions. But they told me old phones wouldn't get any update. But, I wonder how did you even downloaded it.

Android Sdk 26 = Android 8 but iam running android 10 (sdk 29) so it should work?

If it was bcz sdk then google would've just shown me device not supported error

[heckmon]

I see, is there any crash or anything in the notification or just stuck in the loading screen?

[heckmon]

@Fynbix I released the new version, it'll be available in playstore within a few hours. It won't fix the issue, but it shows the exact crashing message on app startup.
So you can paste the error screenshot here and I can solve the issue.

[Fynbix]

Ok, tnx for assisting.

Btw. Can you please add a plugin system so i can develop plugins without needing to contribute to this projects android directory. It would be extremely usefull.

[heckmon]

The extension system is easy in to implement in javascript editors like Acode, VScode, etc. Because javascript is an interpreted language and can be ran at runtime. But a flutter application is compiled to a native executable.
However it is possible to add a json based extension for adding themes and small stuffs. like,

"editor": {
   "on": {
        "signIn.press": "aiTab.open"
    }
     
}

@Fynbix Hello, new version out. Please update the app and test again.

[Fynbix]

Wow. Why you didn't ask file manager permission when you have to Access Local Filesystem (i manually created the folder & it works). And dart or Kotlin based extension system possible? Like xed editor has kotlin based extension system.

[heckmon]

I'll fix it soon.
Also, about the extension, it'll be hard to implement extension in compiled languages. However I'll try to add something like in the zed editor, which has the rust based extensions

[Fynbix]

Can you also fix this? It always stucks at 80% no matter my internet connection.

[heckmon]

@Fynbix From 0 - 80%, the zip files are downloaded and from 80% - 100%, the downloaded files get extracted. So the problem is with the extraction part. I will add an error dialogue like the previous one

[heckmon]

@Fynbix I've released a new version with both fixes. It's under review and will be available in a few hours.
So, before installing it, please delete the manually created folder to check whether the app can create it without any crash.

[heckmon]

@Fynbix It's out. Please reinstall it instead of updating. Also make sure to delete that folder manually before installing
