Use reloading on photo view

[tobiasKaminsky]

Fix#4235
Fix#1972
Fix#1682
Fix#1901

• Needs: Photo search limit android-library#134

Once this is merged, revert: nextcloud/android-library#322

Stalled by:
nextcloud/server#15029
nextcloud/server#15048

This first loads 3x display items and on each bottom reach loads the next bunch of images.
Due to limitation of webdav this is currently only working if search is sorted by date, so not working on file names (for (favorite) search).

BUGS:

• no loading dialog on start
• swipe to refresh on photo search results in "/" file list
• loading additional photos duplicates items, so after 3x we have 3x the first image
• sort order is totally arbitrary
• click on an image, return, sometimes show file list

TODOs

• "cache" search: show photos, click on image, go back within 30s should show directly "old" search
• try to re-use stored information, e.g. of parent folder
• add check for NC14
• check/fix navigation
• maybe enhance loading with http://www.devexchanges.info/2017/02/android-recyclerview-dynamically-load.html

This will be a NC14+ feature as it depends on changes on webdav search.

[AndyScherzinger]

@tobiasKaminsky is this PR revive-able? Just asking because RecyclerView has already been merged and this PR has a lot of conflicts with master :/

[tobiasKaminsky]

I will try, once I have a bit space left.
I thought that I based this of recyclerview PR, but apparently something went wrong.

[AndyScherzinger]

recyclerview PR has already been merged, so maybe a rebase on master will solve most of the issues automatically?

[tobiasKaminsky]

@ezaquarii I changed code according to your review, thank you :-)

[ezaquarii]

We could consider migrating this to new AsyncRunner. Few benefits:

1. task turns into a simple function which you can actually unit test
2. onPostExectute turns into another function and moves to relevant UI class where it belongs

[tobiasKaminsky]

Let us do this in an additional PR.
This one is already too old and too big.

[ezaquarii]

I'm not sure ithis UI code belongs here.

[tobiasKaminsky]

Let us also do this in the same new PR as above.

[mlaverdiere]

Just tested the latest 10374.apk build.

First, selecting the images section in the left panel seemed to load faster than previous test-build, buf it loaded only 13 images (quite old, not the latest one that I have taken with my phone or uploaded on my account...), and then stopped, with the loading spinning wheel.

Switching to other app. and coming back to ND and selecting the images section in the left panel does nothing good, i.e. only showing 13 grey icons.

Doing the same thing again show the 13 images that were first displayed, without nothing else except showing the loading spinning wheel.

[tobiasKaminsky]

Spotbugs fails to detect logic here:

Possible null pointer dereference in com.owncloud.android.ui.asynctasks.PhotoSearchTask.onPostExecute(RemoteOperationResult) due to return value of called method

android/src/main/java/com/owncloud/android/ui/asynctasks/PhotoSearchTask.java

Lines 96 to 115 in 46fdd57

	if (photoFragmentWeakReference.get() != null) {
	PhotoFragmentphotoFragment = photoFragmentWeakReference.get();
	if (result.isSuccess() && result.getData() != null && !isCancelled()) {
	if (result.getData() == null || result.getData().size() == 0) {
	photoFragment.setSearchDidNotFindNewPhotos(true);
	} else {
	OCFileListAdapteradapter = photoFragment.getAdapter();
	adapter.setData(result.getData(),
	ExtendedListFragment.SearchType.PHOTO_SEARCH,
	storageManager,
	null,
	false);
	adapter.notifyDataSetChanged();
	Log_OC.d(this, "Search: count: " + result.getData().size() + " total: " + adapter.getFiles().size());
	}
	}
	finalToolbarActivityfileDisplayActivity = (ToolbarActivity) photoFragment.getActivity();

I check at L96 if it is null, and then use it at 115, where it can never been null.

No idea what to do here to prevent Spotbugs from behaving wrong.
So I change spotbugs-result for now.

[tobiasKaminsky]

@ezaquarii@AndyScherzinger I would like to get this into 3.8.0 RC1, which is scheduled for next Monday.
As this is an isolated enhancement of a currently non-working feature, I think this is better than nothing.

[tobiasKaminsky]

IT test failure are unrelated.
Codacy is somehow true, but this is old code, which just was moved, so I would like to keep it this way and tackle it later

[AndyScherzinger]

Fine with me :

[AndyScherzinger]

Awaiting feedback from @ezaquarii :)

[mlaverdiere]

I just tried the latest 10407.apk and it works way better than the previous 10374.apk (and that the current stable release): pictures are loading (relatively...) fast the first time the pictures section is clicked and when coming back, it's much (relatively...) faster since it seems it doesn't try to reload completely the pictures but instead relie on cache data. Also, pictures are displayed in some logical order, i.e. pictures last taken (or modified/loaded I guess) are displayed first.

I would say that, at last, with these fixes, the pictures section of the ND app. would be usable. Thanks!

[mlaverdiere]

Oops.. I did some other tests (with 10407.apk) that were not so conclusive: upon exiting and coming back to the ND app, only grey icons were displayed in the pictures section and eventually, the app. crashed repetitively... Once I could get the pictures showing up again, it seemed that after it managed to display 95 images, it started to endlessly try to load the next ones, without any result...

[ezaquarii]

@mlaverdiere do you have the crash stacktrace?

[mlaverdiere]

Sorry, but how could I get the stacktrace? (just a regular user here, so I need some guidance...)

10424.apk loads pictures very fast, without any crash (so far), but again, stops after the first 95 images (endless spinning wheel)

[ezaquarii]

@mlaverdiere I'd expect you get a stacktrace displayed in a popup upon crash. It looks like this PR is behind master.

I created another test build for you. This one should display the stack trace popup on crash: #4339

[mlaverdiere]

OK, i just tested the 10427 build: no crash to report yet, but still stops after 95 pictures...

[gessel]

as #1682 and #6138 are closed and redirect here:

Photos pane in android app isn't working; I switched from release to dev and tried with Nextcloud-android/20200707, it seems to time out and eventually (after 30-60 seconds or so) gives the No Photos/Upload some photos or activate auto upload. The Photos App on the server works as expected (and there are definitely photos).

Same here with NC 18.0.6 and a Pixel 3a with the current Nextcloud App 3.12.1. Usually it only took unjustifiable long before the pictures appears, now it always times out.

It also seems to be not easy to debug the app for a user, such as logging its requests to the server or some debugging console as browsers have it for debugging websites.

The dev and debug builds do ship such a log view (accessible via the settings screen within the app) while this a general logging view, not one just for network communication

other than that this is a (merged) PR, so it would be best to create an issue since discussions in merged, old PRs are rather getting lost in the Github notification noise
