This seems a very auspicious day to have finally gotten the Android app
|
||
|
|
doing something useful! I've fixed the last bugs with using it to set up a
|
||
|
|
remote ssh server, which is all I need to make my Android tablet
|
||
|
|
sync photos I take with a repository on my laptop.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
[[!img /android/DCIM.png alt="git-annex webapp running on Android"]]
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
I set this up entirely in the GUI, except for needing to switch to the
|
||
|
|
terminal twice to enter my laptop's password.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
How fast is it? Even several minute long videos transfer before I can
|
||
|
|
switch from the camera app to the webapp. To get this screenshot with it in
|
||
|
|
the process of syncing, I had to take a dozen pictures in a minute. Nice
|
||
|
|
problem to have. ;)

Have fun trying this out for yourself after tonight's autobuilds. But a
|
||
|
|
warning: One of the bugs I fixed today had to be fixed in `git-annex-shell`,
|
||
|
|
as run on the ssh server that the Android connects to. So the Android app
|
||
|
|
will only work with ssh servers running a new enough version of git-annex.

Worked on geting git-annex into Debian testing, which is needed before
|
||
|
|
the wheezy backport can go in. Think I've worked around most of the issues
|
||
|
|
that were keeping it from building on various architectures.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Caught up on some bug reports and fixed some of them.
