| GuidoPallemans | how can I apply my app for the wednesday design show? | 10:47 |
| nik90_ | popey: we can the meeting whenever you are free btw | 10:58 |
| nik90_ | GuidoPallemans: you send an email to design@canonical.com before Tuesday. The session themselves happen on wednesday in ubuntu-on-air | 11:10 |
| nik90_ | GuidoPallemans: http://design.canonical.com/2013/09/wednesday-app-design-clinic/ | 11:10 |
| popey | nik90_: ok, just making lunch, will ping you after, in an hour or so | 11:48 |
| popey | nik90_: around now | 14:25 |
| nik90_ | popey: I am here | 14:49 |
| popey | hi nik90_ | 14:50 |
| nik90_ | popey: Hi | 14:50 |
| popey | shall we have an official meeting in -meeting or did you want to just chat here? | 14:50 |
| nik90_ | popey: was just about to ask you the same thing | 14:50 |
| nik90_ | :) | 14:50 |
| nik90_ | popey: ur call | 14:51 |
| popey | we can just chat here | 14:51 |
| nik90_ | okay | 14:52 |
| popey | Anything in particular you have of concern? | 14:52 |
| nik90_ | popey: so I am been fixing zsombi's comments on my alarms branch. I think from my part it is done. | 14:52 |
| popey | ok, cool. | 14:52 |
| nik90_ | However as of now, it sometimes crashes the clock app when saving an alarm due to an upstream issue I think | 14:52 |
| nik90_ | zsombi confirmed it and has already proposed a fix in the sdk. It is now in the queue | 14:53 |
| nik90_ | once that patch lands, I think then my alarms branch is good to go into trunk | 14:53 |
| nik90_ | So meanwhile I have been working on other high priority bug | 14:54 |
| nik90_ | like https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1201858 | 14:54 |
| popey | Great, look forward to testing alarms when that lands. | 14:54 |
| popey | ah, that one | 14:54 |
| nik90_ | popey: I already have a fix almost ready. Just need a bit more work | 14:54 |
| popey | awesome. | 14:55 |
| nik90_ | I discussed the solution with dpm and agreed that the temporary solution for that bug is fine for the 1.0 release | 14:55 |
| nik90_ | However I wanted to couple that solution with gps location (automatic) | 14:55 |
| nik90_ | If you remember you gave me the code http://paste.ubuntu.com/6087739/ | 14:55 |
| nik90_ | from mzanetti | 14:55 |
| nik90_ | I do not know how to install qtdeclarative5-qtlocation-plugin on the phone since it is a system-image and hence read-only | 14:56 |
| popey | is that not in by default now? | 14:57 |
| * popey checks | 14:57 | |
| popey | it is now | 14:57 |
| nik90_ | oh okay, then when I ran the code on the phone, it did not show me the gps lat and long. | 14:57 |
| nik90_ | I assume GPS is on by default? However the location indicator is not checked | 14:58 |
| popey | i just flashed my phone with todays image | 14:59 |
| popey | so it's possibly a recent change | 14:59 |
| popey | not sure if we're on by default | 14:59 |
| nik90_ | when you run the code above, do you see the lat,lng in the label? | 14:59 |
| popey | root 747 0.0 0.2 45740 5056 ? Ssl 14:41 0:00 /usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/ubuntu-location-service/examples/service --bus system --provider gps::Provider | 14:59 |
| popey | phablet 2196 0.0 0.1 27752 3276 ? Sl 14:43 0:00 /usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/indicator-location/indicator-location-service | 14:59 |
| popey | looks like it | 14:59 |
| * popey tries | 14:59 | |
| popey | file:///home/phablet/foo.qml:3 "components": no such directory | 15:00 |
| popey | i get that | 15:00 |
| popey | am I missing something? | 15:01 |
| nik90_ | popey: let me wrap that into a qmlproject zip and give it to you | 15:01 |
| popey | sweet, thanks | 15:01 |
| nik90_ | popey: http://ubuntuone.com/0YJKdcFGS6RlJGuGDmS5dC | 15:02 |
| nik90_ | popey: mzanetti told me that it does not work in the desktop. So you can only test it on a phone | 15:03 |
| popey | k | 15:03 |
| nik90_ | basically when you run the app, the lat,long should be displayed in the ubuntu shape. For me it comes up blank. | 15:04 |
| popey | how are you running it? | 15:05 |
| popey | just qmlscene location.qml ? | 15:05 |
| nik90_ | popey: yes | 15:05 |
| popey | it doesnt show on screen for me on the phone | 15:06 |
| nik90_ | I opened the project on qtcreator and just ctrl + f12 | 15:06 |
| popey | ah | 15:06 |
| popey | will do that instead | 15:06 |
| popey | bear with me a moment | 15:07 |
| nik90_ | np | 15:07 |
| nik90_ | take ur time | 15:07 |
| popey | i get hello world | 15:08 |
| nik90_ | popey: that string should be replaced with the lat,long | 15:09 |
| nik90_ | atleast looking at the code for the location written by mzanetti | 15:09 |
| popey | http://popey.com/~alan/device-2013-09-22-160944.png | 15:09 |
| popey | http://popey.com/~alan/device-2013-09-22-160951.png | 15:09 |
| nik90_ | It would be nice if any of the platform devs can write a sample app with location detection. (tvoss or anybody) | 15:10 |
| nik90_ | I get the same thing | 15:10 |
| popey | yeah, i asked bzoltan to do that once the location stuff had landed, I'll poke him tomorrow. He may have done it already but I don't know where it is. | 15:11 |
| popey | I know he was waiting until all the platform bits had landed before making a qml sample | 15:11 |
| nik90_ | okay | 15:12 |
| nik90_ | that would make my life of getting current location for the clock app more official and easier | 15:12 |
| popey | same for everyone ☻ | 15:12 |
| nik90_ | okay I will follow up with you on this tomorrow evening | 15:13 |
| nik90_ | oh one last thing | 15:13 |
| nik90_ | https://code.launchpad.net/~nik90/ubuntu-clock-app/sync-clock-backend/+merge/186923 | 15:13 |
| nik90_ | this should now show the same time in the welcome screen, indicator and clock app | 15:13 |
| nik90_ | only the location name cannot be retrieved automatically until I get the gps qml code to work | 15:14 |
| popey | how are you planning to lookup location ? | 15:15 |
| popey | I mean, map text location from gps co-ords | 15:15 |
| nik90_ | I will pass the cordinates to an online API which will return the city names | 15:16 |
| popey | mapquest? | 15:16 |
| nik90_ | geonames.org | 15:16 |
| popey | ok | 15:16 |
| nik90_ | ubuntu installer also geonames.org. so i will stick to that | 15:17 |
| popey | yeah, cool. | 15:17 |
| nik90_ | I think with this, all the high priority bugs have been handled for 1.0 releae | 15:18 |
| nik90_ | there are some design bugs reported by lina. Some of them needed clarifications and I have already emailed her about it. | 15:18 |
| popey | Ok, I agree. | 15:19 |
| popey | Will chase up with Lina in the morning | 15:19 |
| popey | It's looking really close. | 15:19 |
| nik90_ | okay . thnx | 15:19 |
| nik90_ | +1 | 15:19 |
| nik90_ | popey: I think that was all. | 15:21 |
| nik90_ | popey: btw when you talk to bzoltan tomorrow, give him http://ubuntuone.com/0sFYEYLHlIhlRBP74SJlaQ | 15:27 |
| nik90_ | popey: it is basically an improved code sample. should provide a starting point for him | 15:27 |
| nik90_ | I got it go. Have a nice evening | 15:28 |
| popey | nik90_: sorry, got dragged away by my kids | 15:28 |
| popey | thanks nik90_ | 15:28 |
| popey | will do | 15:28 |
| nik90_ | popey: no worries. :) | 15:28 |
| popey | thanks for taking some time on sunday to update me ☻ | 15:28 |
| Geocool_ | Hello. I've an image with -1 z in Main View as background. Inside one of my tabs i have a listview. When I scroll the header of the Page element takes the background color of MainView instead of displaying the background. Is this a bug ? | 16:45 |
| mzanetti | nik90_: fyi. qtlocation it also works on the desktop by now. you might need to setup geoclue first though | 18:21 |
| narekb | hey folks, when's the Evernote development project starting? | 18:47 |
| popey | narekb: soon | 18:57 |
| popey | mzanetti: did you get that code working on the device? It didn't work for me | 18:58 |
| narekb | popey is an exact date set? | 19:04 |
| popey | narekb: i think we'll start contacting developers who expressed an interest this week | 19:05 |
| narekb | ooook | 19:05 |

| daker | nik90_: just use http://geoip.ubuntu.com/lookup | 20:15 |
| nik90_ | popey: Do you think we can use this? ^^ | 20:35 |
| nik90_ | seems much easier | 20:35 |
| nik90_ | daker: thnx, I remember someone mentioning this before, however for reason, I forgot about it. | 20:42 |
| nik90_ | daker: will investigate if we can use this. | 20:43 |
| daker | nik90_: i use on my app https://bazaar.launchpad.net/~rad.io-devs/rad.io/trunk/view/head:/rad.io.qml#L172 | 20:44 |
| daker | it* | 20:44 |
| nik90_ | daker: I am just thinking if it is a reliable way of doing stuff for the official clock app. Although I could then provide 3 ways of setting current location: gps, geoip and manually. | 20:45 |
| daker | nik90_: i see | 20:45 |
| popey | nik90_: I don't know of any reason not to | 20:46 |
| nik90_ | popey: cool. | 20:47 |
| nik90_ | popey: could you get the ramsamsam app to open properly? I get a white screen always | 21:00 |
| popey | lets see | 21:01 |
| nik90_ | popey: oh btw, you can set the background of the unity dash using system settings. All you need is have some wallpapers in /Pictures | 21:01 |
| popey | hmm, white screen here | 21:01 |
| popey | oh nice | 21:02 |
| nik90_ | popey: every other app that I tried works. Also for some reason, the music app does not produce any sound. I can see that it is playing the song I chose though | 21:03 |
| popey | aa-exec: ERROR: profile 'com.ubuntu.developer.danielbeck.ramsamsamreader_ramsamsamreader_0.2.1' does not exist | 21:21 |
| popey | nik90_: the .desktop file is broken, it has "test.qml" as the qml file in the Exec line, when it's ramsamsamreader.qml | 21:25 |
| popey | modifying the .desktop file doesn't fix it though | 21:25 |
| nik90_ | popey: hmm | 21:26 |
| popey | beuno: mhall119 we really need a way to find apps in myapps so I can go back and find an app to give feedback to a developer | 21:27 |
| popey | beuno: mhall119 right now I have to hope the url is cached (ie. I have visited the app before) or sequentially go through each app which sucks | 21:27 |
| popey | ok, found it, and sent feedback requesting they fix it nik90_ | 21:29 |
| nik90_ | popey: thnx | 21:31 |
| popey | np | 21:32 |
| popey | lemme know if you find any others and I'll do likewise | 21:32 |
| nik90_ | popey: sure | 21:32 |
