Does Ubuntu Touch happen to support an emulator? [09:55] Or something like a VM of sorts [10:06] And has anyone here compiled a Swift program on/for Ubuntu Touch? [10:14] @Joannis [And has anyone here compiled a Swift program on/for Ubuntu Touch?], Ubuntu touch supports only .click packages and you should program your app in c++/qml [10:14] @just_carlod [Ubuntu touch supports only .click packages and you should program your app in c+ …], Can I not make a (Swift) binary that links with the C++ QML library? [10:15] And by _should_ I assume you mean that it's possible to do otherwise, but not recommended? [10:16] Hello, I would like to run the entire UBports network through TOR every time the smartphone starts up, do you know how to do that? [10:27] @Joannis [And by _should_ I assume you mean that it's possible to do otherwise, but not re …], Qml is mainly used for UI. You can use many languages for backend. c++ although is the only one that will allow you access all parts of the system. But JS, python, rust, go, ... can be used and are already used. [10:27] @Danfro [Qml is mainly used for UI. You can use many languages for backend. c++ although …], Exactly, that makes sense 🙂 [10:28] Thanks to both of you! [10:28] @Elias [Hello, I would like to run the entire UBports network through TOR every time the …], Wouldn't this be the same/similar to the same question on regular ubuntu? [10:29] @nanu_c [Because every app started with qmlscene is called that way and there is no possi …], there is though. [10:31] A thin version of "qmlscene" implementing a qml engine and exposing applicationName and title to a qt quick application is possible. At some point in qt, Window and Settings had properties exposed which could do this, but I'm not sure it was pre or post 5.9 [10:32] I would argue that an app should be described by its window title property, for QML apps. [10:32] @Joannis [Wouldn't this be the same/similar to the same question on regular ubuntu?], Ubuntu Desktop is much less limited than Ubuntu Touch, if you have an answer to how to get all the ubuntu Touch network through TOR, I'm more than a taker. [10:34] I don't, unfortunately. I'm really just exploring the idea of getting a new phone to start developing again. I had Ubuntu Touch installed on an old phone a long time ago, but since a Dutch news website just posted an article this has gotten my interest again. [10:35] @Joannis [I don't, unfortunately. I'm really just exploring the idea of getting a new phon …], Go ahead. Always a good choice. 👍🏼 [10:36] @Elias [Ubuntu Desktop is much less limited than Ubuntu Touch, if you have an answer to …], Does there happen to be a list of notable limitations? [10:36] For dev, I love UT. I kinda don't love media-hub though. [10:38] What my gut instinct says is that getting a small set of Swift libraries for UT would be a great starting place for getting more app developers involved. [10:38] Imagine Dart and Flutter on UT? [10:38] That'd help a tonne, too [10:39] It's .. actually somewhat trivial to implement, too. [10:41] I would love to write that, but I'm poor and too busy developing paid apps 😭 [10:42] @Daniel [A thin version of "qmlscene" implementing a qml engine and exposing applicationN …], So you have a documentation for that? [10:42] @Daniel [For dev, I love UT. I kinda don't love media-hub though.], I think media hub is fine, just needs further development to support more use cases … what I don't like is the content hub. I feel like it has to be redesigned from the ground up. Too bad we don't billions to develop these things 😆 [10:43] I .. don't know, if you open Qt Creator and click "New Project", then select "Qt Quick - Empty Project" you get a thin client that, if you modify main.cpp to load argv[1] instead of "qml/main.cpp" would effectively provide the same thing. [10:44] Exposing QApplication properties is relatively well documented, though. [10:44] @Javacookies [I think media hub is fine, just needs further development to support more use ca …], I haven't played with it much, but I have one app where media plays, but I only get audio because of... reasons? [10:45] In the same app I want to save content, and it .. "works", but only to my app's own private content folder. I don't blame content hub for it, I know very well I'm not familiar enough with it. [10:47] @Joannis [Does there happen to be a list of notable limitations?], Ubuntu Touch is not an open linux distribution, you can just do what you want to do, all usable applications are in the openStore. … but that's not the point, if you think Ubuntu Touch has no limitation then feel free to explain me how to get the whole ubuntu touch network t [10:47] hrough TOR. … Because under any linux distribution, it's very easy to install a tool like anonym8 https://github.com/HiroshiManRise/anonym8 to make the whole network switch to TOR. [10:48] @Elias [Ubuntu Touch is not an open linux distribution, you can just do what you want to …], That's not what I'm saying. I'm actually asking for the limitations, because I'm curious. [10:48] I'm not trying to argue for or against your question. [10:49] Background applications aren't really a thing, sometimes calls or SMSs aren't received, many popular services from iPhone and Android aren't yet available, and video playback kinda only works from official apps [10:50] Buuut you should also ask about advantages [10:50] @Joannis [That's not what I'm saying. I'm actually asking for the limitations, because I'm …], Okay, sorry I didn't understand, on Ubuntu Touch it's recommended to use only the tools offered in the openStore, because as soon as you start trying to install other tools, it immediately becomes a gas factory ^^ [10:52] @Elias [Okay, sorry I didn't understand, on Ubuntu Touch it's recommended to use only th …], I would be happy to help if I could install UT now. That'll have to wait a little while. I hope someone else in this chat has a solution for you 🙂 [10:53] @Daniel [Buuut you should also ask about advantages], I can see a lot of advantages, for myself at least. I've got a large set of Swift libraries that are designed for Linux . And I'm eagerly looking forward to expanding them to client devices, as well. [10:55] @Daniel [Background applications aren't really a thing, sometimes calls or SMSs aren't re …], These'll be solved over time, I'm sure. [10:55] It's a reinforced circle with ecosystems like these. More negative or lack of attention, leads to more. The same goes for more positive or intensive attention. [10:56] I'm sorry [10:56] Levkama was added by: Levkama [10:56] I thought Swift was an iPhone/Apple thing [10:56] Yeah, that's still on the back of many minds. [10:56] What is the easiest programming language to develop applications for UT? [10:57] QML/Javascript [10:57] https://swift.org/download/#releases [10:57] There's quite a few platforms now [10:57] @Joannis [Yeah, that's still on the back of many minds.], Okay, so all you need is a Swift rendering system for your apps/libraries? [10:57] I'm personally not interested in Windows, beyond servers [10:57] @Daniel [Okay, so all you need is a Swift rendering system for your apps/libraries?], Sure [10:58] I'm happy building it myself [10:58] zarcoz was added by: zarcoz [10:58] Saying "Windows Server" to me sounds like "Sushi Icecream", but I know it's a real thing [10:58] @Daniel [Saying "Windows Server" to me sounds like "Sushi Icecream", but I know it's a re …], Yeah, some customers only run Windows server [10:58] Idk, I hate it. But there's a demand [10:58] I'm aware, and I ... don't blame them, for a lot of vendors, it's the only choice [10:58] Intuit still doesn't develop ACCPAC on Linux, I think? [10:58] I've got a partial MSSQL library lying around for that need [10:59] Have you worked with MSSQL? [10:59] Oh, sorry [10:59] Not much, hardly any [10:59] Luckily [10:59] Just the protocol [10:59] That was painful enough [10:59] I read MySQL and.. yeah, me too. Yet I made a living fixing it for like 3 years. [11:00] Don't think MySQL is great though.. I dismissed the entire idea of MySQL being a great system when I dove into the protocol. [11:00] PSQL is a lot better in many ways [11:00] I would argue that Linux-centric services require background knowledge, and MS-centric services you can fumble, google, and click your way through [11:00] @Daniel [I would argue that Linux-centric services require background knowledge, and MS-c …], That's scale, isn't it? [11:00] I like PGSQL I just don't live having to vacuum [11:01] Scale... [11:01] SQL isn't scale. [11:01] Anyways, what I'm interested in is Ubuntu Touch + Swift for ARM [11:01] https://swift-arm.com [11:01] I mean scale in users, not data [11:02] I get that, but bad indexes make fools of SQL admins [11:02] I think you should attempt a port [11:02] Clickable is the buildsystem [11:02] If you visit https://clickable-ut.dev/en/latest/ you can get a primer on how to start. [11:03] I've added you as a telegram contact, do you mind if I reach out to you when I've got an environment to use? [11:03] ihor_shaman was added by: ihor_shaman [11:03] It will seem intense, but A) it isn't, and B) join https://t.me/UbuntuAppDevEN [11:03] Not at all, call me if you want [11:03] My English is decent enough [11:04] Cool [11:04] Although I've only ever developed 5 or 6 UT apps [11:04] Hah, I've done 1 prototype 2 years ago I think [11:04] That's 5 of my 6, no worries [11:04] Not much has changed [11:05] Clickable actually got more stable, and easier to use [11:05] Also, they allow my last name now [11:05] Wat do you mean? [11:06] Oh, my last name is O'Neill [11:06] And you know SQL, that isn't allowed [11:06] HAH! [11:38] @Daniel [Imagine Dart and Flutter on UT?], Allowing UT app development using Swift /dart is great idea 😍. … It will bring lots of mobile developer into UT ecosystem.Please let me know if you need any helping hands .I will be happy to help. [11:42] Will do! [11:42] I'm going to set up a development environment in a few hours [11:42] I'll link it here to you and Daniel if I have a small app working [11:42] Or if I'm stuck [13:06] @Joannis [Does there happen to be a list of notable limitations?], few notable differences of UT compared to desktop ubuntu would be: … - a readonly rootfs … - rootfs limited to 2GB … - aggressive battery management … - applications are confined [13:06] @Elias [Ubuntu Touch is not an open linux distribution, you can just do what you want to …], if that is need we need to find a way to install it no? [13:08] @Elias [Okay, sorry I didn't understand, on Ubuntu Touch it's recommended to use only th …], uh no, that's not completely through, apt just isn't supported and if libertine is not useful, there's no other alternative.........yet [13:09] @Joannis [It's a reinforced circle with ecosystems like these.
