initial fastlane structures from IzzyOnDroid
this PR provides you with a "fastlane starter package" – to give it into your hands to define how your app is presented, and make it easy to keep descriptions & graphics in sync with your development. Some notes to sum them up in a place easy to find for you:
- the IzzyOnDroid Fastlane Documentation can guide you with maintaining the structures here
- take special care for limits, e.g. per-release changelogs can have max 500 chars,
full_description.txtmax 4,000 chars, graphics must have specific aspect ratios etc. - you can have "bigger graphics" here; the IoD updater takes care to resize/optimize them as needed
- for the
full_description.txthere I've used HTML compressed into a single line, to prevent the fdroid software converting each line break to a<br>. The tags used for this are supported by F-Droid.org as well, and to my knowledge even by PlayStore. - whenever you add a new "type" of metadata that has not been there before (e.g. the first changelog, a featureGraphic if it wasn't yet present), please let us know so we can check and enable it.
- Details on all this in the linked documentation.
- Once merged, your changes will be synced whenever a new release is pulled in here – to make sure it stays up-to-date with the app itself.
- Should you have questions, be welcome to ask :wink:
A separate commit adds a link to IzzyOnDroid, where the DroidPlay is available since 2023-01-14.
And now: Enjoy!
PS: if you want me to upstream our Fastlane from your older projects as well (or in other words, if you'd accept it there, too), please let me know, and I gladly send it up. Also, should you move DroidPlay to your Codeberg account, please drop me a note :wink:
@warren-bank any chance to get this (and the fastlane PRs for your other apps) merged? As we need to move forward with our repo reorg, it would help us as well. Thanks in advance!
@warren-bank would it motivate you if I told you the app has about 30 installs each month here from IzzyOnDroid? Our stats say so…
Hm, no word? As we need to move on with our current repo reorg, can you please let me know where we stand in this concern, @warren-bank – also for your other apps, having similar PRs open? :pray:
Almost looks as if all notifications miss you, @warren-bank :cry:
