microPebble

A small scrappy open source Pebble companion app, based on the libpebble3. It's not meant as a grand replacement for the original app, but as a small app with the functional UI and the features that I care about.

Supported features:

• Connecting to the LE watches
• Installing / uninstalling watch apps via PBW
• PebbleKit JS (including configuration pages)
• Basic notification config
• Music control
• Calendar sync
• PebbleKit Android (for Notification Center, Music Boss etc.), albeit it's slower on the Pre-P2 watches
• Developer connection
• Voice recognition (on Android 13+)

Contributing

Checking out project

1. Install Git LFS
2. Checkout the repo
3. Pull submodules git submodule update --init --recursive
4. Run git lfs fetch in the repo

Updating versions

Process for updating all library versions::

1. Update Gradle version
   1. Find latest version and the checksum for -all version from https://gradle.org/release-checksums/ (We use SHA to secure against wrapper attack, see https://blog.gradle.org/wrapper-attack-report)
   2. Run ./gradlew wrapper --gradle-version VERSION --gradle-distribution-sha256-sum SHA, where you substitute VERSION and SHA with the info found in the previous step.
2. Open libs.toml file and check if any versions marked with @pin have been unblocked and can now be updated
3. Run ./gradlew versionCatalogUpdate.
4. Sync the project, build the app and run all tests to make sure everything still works.
5. Run detektDebug gradle task to find any new deprecated code
6. For any new deprecated code found by the search:
   • If the fix is trivial, fix it immediately as part of the update commit
   • Otherwise, make a tech debt ticket and add a @Suppress with the ticket number (and/or discuss with the team how to address it)

Creating a new module

To easily add new modules, first enable project templates (you only need to do this once). Open Android Studio's Settings, go to "File and Code Templates" and set Scheme to "Project".

Then, to create a new module:

1. Right click on the root in the project window, select New and then the project type you want
2. Add module to settings.gradle.kts
3. Add module to app's build.gradle.kts as implementation(projects.newModule))
4. Remove leading space from all generated .gitignore files (workaround for the https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IJPL-2568)

Hierarchy of the feature modules

Every feature should contain following modules:

• feature-name
  • data - data module with all non-UI logic (such as repositories). No other data or ui module should depend on this (except for tests).
  • api - interfaces and data models exposed to other modules. This module should generally contain no logic to speed up builds.
  • ui - Module containing feature's ui (Screens / Fragments / ViewModels). No other data or ui module should depend on this (except for tests).
  • test (optional) - Module containing test helpers for faking stuff exposed in the api module

If your module contains instrumented tests, you must enable them with the following call:

custom {
   enableEmulatorTests.set(true)
}

Creating screenshot tests

To create screenshot tests for your compose screen:

1. Make preview functions public
2. Add showkase plugin to the module of the screen you want to test
3. Add @ShowkaseComposable(group = "Test") annotation to the preview of the screen you want to test
4. run recordPaparazziDebug gradle task to record golden screenshot (double check that only previews for your screen were generated)
