Introduction
Steemia is a social network app running over the Steem Blockchain. This app will provide the users an enriched user experience plus features commonly encountered in a casually used social media. The goal of this project is to give the community a mobile app where they can do their daily activity in the blockchain.
Bug Fixes
What was the issue(s)?
The issue was that Steemia was showing the incorrect amount of posted posts. https://github.com/Steemia/Steemia/issues/26What was the solution?
Even though the solution was not implemented directly in client side, it was implemented in server side and was introduced in the refactoring of the old endpoints.
New Features
- What feature(s) did you add?
The new feature added was to display video-only posts instead of making the user open the post. Here are two screenshots for better reference:
- How did you implement it/them?
An arbitrary attribute was added to the post object and client side switch the template when this new attribute is true. Then, using https://github.com/orizens/ngx-youtube-player/ component, videos are rendered.
Other changes
- Client side logic was moved to server side to avoid wasting of memory.
Before, calculations like steem voting power was calculated in client side. This is not longer true thanks to the new Steemia API.
- Replace old endpoints with new endpoints
In order to reflect changes in the application, constants were changed with the new endpoints.
- Close popover voting slider after set the weight
Popover was still open even after vote was emitted correctly. This was causing a bad user experience.
- Fix incorrect reputation
This change was done in server side and calculations were removed from client side.
- Refactor actions provider
All the logic are now handled inside the provider instead of the components itself. Also, Google analytics actions are done inside the provider instead of the components.
- Refactor voting slider
Voting slider was having extra logic that was not really needed. After an audit of this code, I've conclude that this component can be an emitter instead of a whole component.
- Add Google Analytics
Knowing the audience is crucial as well as know how do they interact with the application. This is why Google Analytics was added.
- Remove delay in actions
With the all API delays were anywhere causing the app to be outdated of the last content. Now this is not an issue.
- Detect current user before load profile page
Before, profile page was loaded straight without first checking the user. Opening your profile from one of your post will redirect you to the author profile page instead of your own profile. This was done by adding a middleware to check the user and determine what page to load.
- Change app identifier (minor)
App was using the default ionic app identifier. Now it is com.steemia.steemia
- Deprecate logger provider
Logger provider was used to try to get the old API updated with the actions. Now, with the new API this is not longer needed thus, this whole provider was deprecated.
- Refactor paginations
This was one of the break changes of the new API. Paginations were refactored to follow the new pattern
