This is mostly implemented in the app, with the needed support in the SDK. Since
the app needs to donate intents and deal with creating NSUserActivity objects it
doesn't feel right to do this in a library. Instead, we donate the intents from
the app, but the SDK is ready to extract conference URLs from any intent which
was registered as a conference activity.
This also opens the door for eventually adding Handoff support.
This is done at the app level, not the SDK.
Currently 2 Firebase services are used:
- Crashlytics
- Dynamic Links
They are enabled in tandem, if the appropriate Google services file
(GoogleService-Info.plist on iOS or google-services.json on Android) is found.
Each service needs to be individually enabled in the Firebase console.
Xcode 10 introduced a new build system. Alas, it breaks a number of important
flows, such as creating an archive for the framework (ie SDK) target.
In order to "fix" this, switch back to the former (Xcode 9) build system for the
time being.
The upstream package has been unmaintained for 2 years now, and making the litle
changes needed as React Native needs them is getting old. The actual
funcionality is a couple of one-liners plus tons of boliterplate, which gets
reduced by quite a bit if we just embed it. So here it goes.
When a native iOS module implements `constantsToExport` it must define
`requiresMainQueueSetup`. In this case we don't do any UI stuff so it doesn't
need to be initialized in the main thread.
App Store Connect reported the following issues in (and rejected the binary
of) Jitsi Meet 1.18.x:
NSBluetoothPeripheralUsageDescription
NSAppleMusicUsageDescription
NSMotionUsageDescription
NSSpeechRecognitionUsageDescription
Starting spring 2019, all apps submitted to the App Store that access user
data will be required to include a purpose string for the following:
NSLocationAlwaysUsageDescription
NSLocationWhenInUseUsageDescription
Use react-native-fastimage, which uses 2 full-native image impleentations using
well known and mature (native) libraries.
This gets us rid of 2 libraries which were observerd as a source of bugs and
created trouble with dependencies: react-native-fetch-blob and
react-native-img-cache. They are also no longer well maintained.
There is no reason for them to run on the main thread, it's safe to call
AVFoundation functions on threads other than the main thread.
The previous code made an incorrect claim about the thread in which the audio
route change notification selector is called: it's called on a secondary thread:
https://developer.apple.com/documentation/avfoundation/avaudiosessionroutechangenotification
It will only be requested if a user joins a meeting or flips the switch from
video to audio and back, but never as the first thing when the welcome page is
mounted.
Fix the "mute ping pong" for once and for all. This patch takes a new approach
to the problem: it keeps track of the user generated CallKit transaction ations
and avoids calling the delegate method in those cases.
This results in a much cleaner and easier to understand handling of the flow: if
the delegate method is called it means the user tapped on the mute button. When
we sync the muted state in JS with CallKit the delegate method won't be called
at all, thus avoiding the ping-pong altogether.
In addition, make sure all CallKit methods run in the UI thread. CallKit will
call our delegate methods in the UI thread too, thsu there is no need to
synchronize access to the listener / pending action sets.
