iBurn-Android

iBurn is an offline map and guide for the Burning Man art festival.

Got iOS? You'll love iBurn for iOS.

Installation

• Make sure your Android SDK packages are up to date.

• $ git clone https://github.com/Burning-Man-Earth/iBurn-Android --recursive

• $ cd ./iBurn-Android

• $ touch ./iBurn/src/main/java/com/gaiagps/iburn/SECRETS.kt && open ./iBurn/src/main/java/com/gaiagps/iburn/SECRETS.kt

• Copy the following into SECRETS.kt:

  package com.gaiagps.iburn
  
  const val UNLOCK_CODE = "WHATEVER_PASSWORD"
  const val IBURN_API_URL = "https://SOME_API"
  const val MAPBOX_API_KEY = "YOUR_MAPBOX_KEY"

• Copy the following into ./iBurn/fabric.properties:

  apiKey=yourFabricApiKey

• $ ./gradlew assembleDebug or from Android Studio invoke 'Import Project' and select the ./iBurn-Android directory.

Note: Camp, Art and Event location data (camps.json, art.json, events.json) are embargoed by the Burning Man Organization until the gates open each year. Sorry!

Fortunately, you can still run and test the app with the previous year's data.

Annual Update

Update code and text resources

• Update app_name and current_year in iBurn/src/main/res/values/strings.xml
• Update MOCK_NOW_DATE in CurrentDateProvider (Used when simulating event time during testing)
• Update versionYear, versionName and versionCode in iBurn/build.gradle
• Update EVENT_START_DATE and EVENT_END_DATE in AdapterUtils.java
• Update EMBARGO_DATE in Embargo.java
• Update UNLOCK_CODE in SECRETS.kt

Update playa data

1. Check out iBurn-Data into a directory adjacent to this repository's root, and point iBurn-Data to the branch appropriate for the current year. Note this will usually be the private repo.
2. ./gradlew updateData. This will copy updated map, geocoder, art images, art audio tour, and api json (camp, art, event) files to this repo.
3. If the map.mbtiles were updated, bump MapboxMapFragment.MBTILES_VERSION
4. Update DATABASE_NAME in PlayaDatabase2.kt to represent the current year. Commit this change.
5. Make these temporary changes to app to generate a database file from JSON. Do not commit:
   • Set USE_BUNDLED_DB to false in PlayaDatabase2.kt
   • Uncomment the call to bootstrapDatabaseFromJson in MainActivity's onCreate
6. Launch the app and confirm database bootstrap completion with logline MainActivity: Bootstrap success: true.
7. Copy the generated database from your device. Depending on the value of the database name set in PlayaDatabase2.kt the file will be located somewhere like /data/data/com.iburnapp.iburn3.debug/databases/playaDatabase2023.db. You can use Android Studio's "Device File Explorer" to conveniently copy this, or use adb pull from the command line. Place the saved database in iBurn/src/main/assets/databases
8. return the value of USE_BUNDLED_DB in PlayaDatabase2.kt to true, Comment out call to bootstrapDatabaseFromJson in MainActivity's onCreate

Art Images/Audio Tour

The ./gradlew updateData will copy art images and tour audio from the iBurn-Data repo to ./assets/art_images and ./assets/audio_tour respectively.

TODO

• Pretty up that item detail view.
• Separate playa API from user database.
• Investigate Mapbox offline and SIGABRT issues. Seems like it's possible Mapbox gets into a state where it stops displaying the map
• Populate playa db from gradle task.

Releasing

Make sure you've:

• Set embargo date correctly in Embargo.java, and set EVENT_START_DATE and EVENT_STOP_DATE in AdapterUtils
• Incremented the version code and name in ./iBurn/build.grade The final pre-signed store release should be built with:

    $ ./gradlew assembleRegularUnsigned

Pass the resulting apk off for signing. Then zipalign before publishing:

$ zipalign -f -v 4 ./signed.apk ./signed-aligned.apk
