My login issue is gone.... And this app is just awesome. Incredible. What a fantastic job, mate!!!! :)

qwenjis : nothing about extras repositories ! extras + extras-testing + extras-devel ! or are they in another file ? ( ls /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ )

extras-testing and devel should be manually added but extras is hwere by default since PR1.2 !

Architrion : it's a pleasure :)

I know I have them disabled. I use faster application manager.

Quick test, short list on Wifi but including Gizmodo, all went well. Will try harder tomorrow on 3G :-)

Re: [Announce] GRead : yet another Google Reader application... (PyQt)
 
qwengis : GRead is in extras-devel. qt-webkit is in extras too (which one i don't know). So you know what to do :)
i didn't think about this before because for me it's obvious that you need extras activated

fpp : i did my test on wifi today

Re: [Announce] GRead : yet another Google Reader application... (PyQt)
 
Confirmation: I just went through another 50+ All list, including the usual suspects, using 3G, and not a single problem to report... I guess you really got it this time ! :-)

BTW, did you notice my question about proxies, a few posts back ?

Twidi 2010-11-15 09:19

Re: [Announce] GRead : yet another Google Reader application... (PyQt)
 
Cool for the navigation :)

About the network/proxy, GRead use libgreader (my fork), which is pure python and do not use the QNetwork (only used by the viewer (QtWebkit) in GRead) so if urllib do not find/use the proxy by default, no, GRead cannot actually use any proxy :-/

Here's my output with enabled repos...As far as I understand for some reason system thinks those packages are outdated. I dunno what else can be done,and I don't want to reflash again...

I think I give it up for now. Thanks,Twidi,for the help. The application is awesome especially offline mode(though it'd be absolutely brilliant to force it cache pics too).I know I had it installed before.
PS just a little suggestion+) might be worth contacting with this dude who made a nice looking version of the original Grr?)

Twidi 2010-11-15 23:02

Re: [Announce] GRead : yet another Google Reader application... (PyQt)
 
qwenjis : really sorry for this problem, i have no idea how to resolve it :(

About Grr, it's exactly because of it that i made GRead, and now, it's nice looking (i don't really like it but it's my opinion), but the lack of some functionalities is always here. And it's done in C++ and GRead is in Python, so the two projects are really different and each one go on it's own way :)

And about caching pictures, yes, i know... "when i'll have time", with a real offline mode...

Thanks for your perseverance... :-/

Re: [Announce] GRead : yet another Google Reader application... (PyQt)
 
A new version (1.0.6) is available in Extras-Devel (or will be soon, it's in the queue) with a unique improvement.

You know that you can use "long press" as a right click to display a context menu.

Now, in lists (not in the article view), when you click on the right (area of 50pixels) of an item in a list (feed list or item list), the context menu will be displayed as if you have made a long press, but really faster than a long press (it's an instant action, as soon as you release the click)

Hope it will help you to be more efficient with GRead. I was waiting for it for weeks (just needed to find time...)

Twidi 2010-11-22 13:44

Re: [Announce] GRead : yet another Google Reader application... (PyQt)
 
Another little update (1.0.7) :

Quote:

simple gestures in item list on mobile views : swipe to right to mark item as read, and to left to mark item as unread
This feature was inspired by the client i used on Android (Newsrob). Really usefull !

fpp 2010-11-22 14:53

Re: [Announce] GRead : yet another Google Reader application... (PyQt)
 
Both sound like really good ideas... long press is a real bore :)
Thanks !

Twidi 2010-11-23 09:26

Re: [Announce] GRead : yet another Google Reader application... (PyQt)
 
version 1.0.8

Quote:

add a virtual toolbar in mobile views : in the item view, a "+", centered at the bottom of the view, display the context menu (you can always long press)
it works the same way as the next/previous arrows

Hu-huh... is this an idea that just came to you, or a flashback of this old post of mine ?...
Quote:

maybe extend your "furtive" buttons system in view mode, adding, say, a circle in the middle between the arrows, that would swap orientations ?
Anyway, great minds think alike :-)

Twidi 2010-11-23 17:23

Re: [Announce] GRead : yet another Google Reader application... (PyQt)
 
I totally forgot your suggestion :) I added this after the others ways to quick access to the context menu, i missed it on this view :)

Aha, full offline mode on approach... :-)

If you want you can follow my dev on the storage branch on github

Speaking of which, how do the rest of you deal with the annoyance with offline mode that every time you skip to a new article that has images it tries to connect? I tried going into Offline Mode, but of course every time it asks to exit Offline mode. I even tried switching off wifi with Wifi Switcher 'cause I have it set to only scan for wifi but it stll scans. Annoying to say the least.

fpp 2011-01-10 20:54

Re: [Announce] GRead : yet another Google Reader application... (PyQt)
 
I don't. I use GRead online, and just skip articles with heavy graphics before they have time to load :-)

For me this is the first time in a while I've really had the opportunity to try & use it offline along with actually remembering to turn it on & sync it before I left :). I see what you mean & it's not GRead's fault. When I tell my phone to go offline, what's the point of it bugging me all the time to get back on? :mad:

Twidi 2011-01-10 22:48

Re: [Announce] GRead : yet another Google Reader application... (PyQt)
 
Yes i know media content are not preloaded. And this "bug" is really annoying when the n900 is really offline.
It will be corrected with the full offline mode.

Speaking about this mode, some work is done, but i have not a lot of time now because i'm currently quitting my job to create a development company... and good news, GRead, and all my ideas for it, will be managed by this company (with some other projects more important....)

But i don't stop working on it, i have a big commit (waiting some more work) for the storage branch, with account managing (now that we'll have storage, we must save data for each account : if you change your login, it's a different account), and a lot of work on memory consumption...

one day :)

Twidi, you still there, or gone to the Dark Side ? :-)

Yesterday, all of a sudden, my Gread lost its configuration, and worse, it can't seem to save it anymore...

Each time I run it, it opens an empty Settings dialog, works fine for the session, then forgets all about it when I close it :-(

What can be wrong ? I don't remember doing anything special to the system during the last few days (no CSSU, reflashing, new apps etc.)...

Twidi 2011-03-30 15:46

Re: [Announce] GRead : yet another Google Reader application... (PyQt)
 
Hi fpp

Me, the dark side ? Why ? Creating my own company, the way i'm doing it, is all but the dark side :)

About GRead i'm still using it a lot (only with wifi because my n900 seems broken with gsm/3g), and have no new problem with it.

Perhaps you should try to delete the GRead conf file located at

/home/user/.config/Twidi.com/Gread.conf

I think your file is damaged, perhaps the phone halted without disk synced.

I hope this will resolve your problem.

fpp 2011-03-30 20:02

Re: [Announce] GRead : yet another Google Reader application... (PyQt)
 
Thanks for the tip Twidi, but the real problem was much stranger than that, and of course entirely my own fault...

The file does exist, dated March 24, around 4pm. At that time I was aboard a train, probably using GRead on 3G, but certainly not messing around with the system :-)

I looked at it and it did not seem visibly corrupted. I renamed it and ran GRead, redid all the settings again, used it a bit then closed it. There was no new .conf file in the directory... although the permissions on Twidi.com looked OK.

It almost seemed as if GRead suddenly decided to use another directory to save its configuration, one it cannot write to.

So I tried running GRead.py from xterm and did the same things, looking for an error message. There was none, but when I checked back in the config folder, this time there was a new file !

Then I ran GRead from the icon short cut again, and again it showed me an empty settings dialog. Ran it from the command line again, and it worked just fine... I was beginning to think I was going mad, when I suddenly remembered : I *did* mess with the system a bit, only a few days later :-)

My hildon-desktop had started eating up CPU again, so I killed and restarted it using dsme-tool. Only I must have done it a root without noticing, so my icons were launching apps with the wrong user ! Some didn't care, others (like GRead or DropN900) acted strangely or just didn't start...

I've just restarted it again, as "user", and of course all is back to normal (although my mistake may have created other problems elsewhere, that I haven't seen yet).

Sorry for wasting your time with my stupid stunts. I hope your company plans didn't suffer too much : after all, the sooner you're a billionaire, the sooner you get back to work on GRead ! :-)

Twidi 2011-03-30 22:40

Re: [Announce] GRead : yet another Google Reader application... (PyQt)
 
:D:D:D

No problem :)

GRead always has a little place in my head. But when i'll work on it again, it will different (and MeeGo compatible, at least). It can takes months (lot of ?) before we release something, we currently have three projects to come !
