What's Changed

Code-Related changes

  • Now using V3 of the TrueTime API: #340

Details

As of 9.0.0, we will no longer have issues with the routes and predictions not working. The issue in detail was explained in #339. There may still may be outages due to server instability; however, now that we are on v3 of TrueTime, we can start incorporating the T into the app.

Description

This is a beta release to fix issues from 8.0.0b2.

It exposes a new feature, which I call "static route caching". By default, all routes lines and stops are prepackaged into the app, so now all route lines will show regardless if internet is on or off.

In addition, there is a temporary "fix" for the buses not showing up, this is explained via #317.

For more info on the roadmap to the next stable release, here is the 8.0.0 milestone: https://github.com/rectangle-dbmi/Realtime-Port-Authority/issues?q=is%3Aissue+milestone%3A%228.0.0+Release+Milestone%22+is%3Aopen

Known beta issues

  • bus list caching is still finicky. I'll make sure to redownload a new route if possible, else fall back to the route in the cache

Description

This is a patch release for updates to the bus list from version 7.0.5.

Changes

  • remove startup dialog about why the buses may be down -> as of May 24, 2017, 6:40 PM, they're back up
  • Added a 'No Buses?' entry to the 3-dot menu.

App Down Dialog

There is a dialog that will pop up any time the app opens (#317). The reason is because Port Authority servers have been down consistently for the past 4 weeks. This is a temporary solution to the problems since I have no control over:

  1. When the server comes back up
  2. If the server is truly up or down

Details are here: https://github.com/rectangle-dbmi/Realtime-Port-Authority/wiki/Port-Authority-Server-Downtimes

Otherwise, there are no other code changes to this release.

Description

This is a beta release to fix issues from 8.0.0b1.

For more info on the roadmap to the next stable release, here is the 8.0.0 milestone: https://github.com/rectangle-dbmi/Realtime-Port-Authority/issues?q=is%3Aissue+milestone%3A%228.0.0+Release+Milestone%22+is%3Aopen

Enhancments for the next beta:

Take note: @mikeantonacci and I have decided drop #233 and #283 from this release due to time constraints and further rethinking of the app architecture. This may be going into the next stable release.

Known beta issues

  • bus list stops displaying routes when no route appears for a certain route. This will be fixed for beta 3

Changes

Bug fixes:

  • Clearing transit no longer lags
  • Pittsburgh should always be the center point of the map. Previously, the app will zoom on Africa (latitude, longitude (0, 0)) on certain edge cases

Code Changes

  • fix problems with extraneous calls to remove map elements redundantly
  • Update all @JakeWharton dependencies (you handsome man...)

UI Differences (tweaking)

  • route lines (polylines) now thinner
  • stops no longer translucent
