Firefox for android support [$100]

Open rodrigoaguilera opened this issue 7 years ago • 69 comments

Steps to reproduce

  1. Install the addon on firefox for android (There is a suggestion for configuring it on the toolbar)
  2. Search for a way to configure the extension

Expected behaviour

I can config the extensión in a separate tab

Actual behaviour

The addon is installed but not configured

Configuration

Operating system: android 7.1.2

Browser: 53.0.2

Extensions that might cause interference:

Passman version: 2.1.2

Extension version: 1.2.12

Nextcloud version: 12.0.0

I wonder how difficult will be to add link to configure the addon. Is this or it requires more work?

Firefox for android is not supported at the moment.

Thank you for you answer. I will donate in the meantime :)

I suggest you also put the donation links in the readme of this project.

rodrigoaguilera avatar Jun 05 '17 19:06 rodrigoaguilera

Thanks! Will add them =)

Great!

Is there a possibility to declare the incompatibility with firefox for android. I feel people will get disappointed if they install and are not able to do anything with the addon rather than a clear message on the addons page that forbids the installation.

rodrigoaguilera avatar Jun 08 '17 08:06 rodrigoaguilera

I've looked at the addon page, can't see anything to turn it off. @caitmuenster @wagnerand the extension is currently listed as an addon for Android, any way to turn this off?

brantje avatar Jun 08 '17 08:06 brantje

If I find an example addon I will let you know. Thanks

Ah found it. Under release management i can choose not to distribute for Android.

brantje avatar Jun 08 '17 08:06 brantje

Perfect!

So how difficult is it to make it work for FF for Android? I assume also Fennec (codename for FF for Android) supports WebExtensions or will, at least, support it in the future, so it should be not that hard to make it work for Fennec, should not it?

rugk avatar Jun 09 '17 08:06 rugk

No idea, but why? We have an android app that will support auto fill in the future.

brantje avatar Jun 09 '17 09:06 brantje

Depends on how good this app works with Fennec…

rugk avatar Jun 09 '17 09:06 rugk

So the app will communicate with any browser to autofill login forms?

rodrigoaguilera avatar Jun 09 '17 09:06 rodrigoaguilera

The app is on it's first stages, there will be a keyboard that will let you input the credentials or some other easy fill method that does not require copy-pasting stuff around and switching apps.

animalillo avatar Jun 09 '17 09:06 animalillo

Okay, that's how other similar apps do it…

rugk avatar Jun 09 '17 09:06 rugk

And Android 6 or 7 introduced and API for filling passwords.

Edit: Android O is going to support autofill

brantje avatar Jun 09 '17 09:06 brantje

Android 6 or 7 introduced and API for filling passwords

…which should only be compatible/supported to/by Fennec.

rugk avatar Jun 09 '17 09:06 rugk

Whats Fennec?

@rodrigoaguilera version 1.3.2 opens a new tab to configure the extension.

brantje avatar Jun 11 '17 12:06 brantje

I just freshly installed the 1.3.2 of the add-on and the behavior I described didn't change. I wasn't able to see any config screen.

I try to inspect tools ➡ addons

But there I can only see a description of the addon

rodrigoaguilera avatar Jun 12 '17 16:06 rodrigoaguilera

I can confirm that no settings tab is being opened after installing passman (as stated by @rodrigoaguilera). Could you perhaps provide the URL of said config page to help investigate the issue?

I think it would also be a good thing to have a settings menu entry for configuration changes. I actually forked the project (before I knew you had added this config page) to try contributing that functionality - but I'm still struggling to build the project for firefox.

As stated earlier, at this moment the firefox addon doesn't support Android. And with the android app in the pipeline i don't know if i have to spend energy on this. If we get auto fill working in the app, what would the benefit be of an Android firefox extension?

brantje avatar Jun 16 '17 11:06 brantje

None, I'm just a bit sceptic towards how the autofill feature will work. But I'll happily be convinced. :D

I was just curious, because 5 days ago you said (as response to this issue) that the addon should now open a new tab after installation.

theCalcaholic avatar Jun 16 '17 14:06 theCalcaholic

I fully support whatever the maintainers of think is the best way. Passman is not in a stage for duplicating efforts

rodrigoaguilera avatar Jun 16 '17 15:06 rodrigoaguilera

Agreed.

theCalcaholic avatar Jun 17 '17 15:06 theCalcaholic

Hi ! I have installed passman extension for android firefox and impossible to set address, login and password about my nextcloud server .. Still not possible since last time please?

tigermick avatar Aug 14 '17 17:08 tigermick

Not possible. We will focus on the Android app. That way all Android users can use passman, and not only firefox users.

brantje avatar Aug 15 '17 10:08 brantje

Just a notice: As of Firefox 57 (current Beta) the passman extension works flawlessly.

theCalcaholic avatar Sep 29 '17 09:09 theCalcaholic

@theCalcaholic Can you post some screenshots on how is the interface on android? I don't have a phone with me right now to install firefox beta
