Xcode project template for native Html5 apps is now Swift2/Xcode 7 ready

This is a very short blog post to describe my latest commit to this template. The Xcode project template in question here is my open-source repo on Github, titled Html5StarterAppWithSwift. This repo came to be while I was working on my iOS app, My Day Todos and if you need to know what that repo is, then have a look at this README file or this blog post

The latest update to the repo: Swift 2

When Xcode 7 was released, so was Swift 2 and since this repo was built using Xcode 6 and Swift 1, I had to migrate it so people do not have any issues when working with this on Xcode 7. I think there may still be people working with Xcode 6 for at least another few months and hence, my original Xcode 6 compliant code is still there. I have added another branch to this repo called, SwiftOne which has the Xcode 6 and Swift 1 code.

Upcoming features: Charting and what else?

Very soon, I will be demonstrating how to use an Html5 based charting solution in a native iOS app via this repo (Html5StarterAppWithSwift). I may use one of the charting libraries mentioned here or morris.js. So if you have any feature requests or anything that you would like to see demonstrated in this repo, then please leave a comment or create an issue here.

Upload to AWS S3 from Java API

In this post, you will see code samples for how to upload a file to AWS S3 bucket from a Java Spring Boot app. The code you will see here is from one of my open-source repositories on Github, called document-sharing. Problem Let’s say you are building a document sharing app where you allow your users to upload the file to a public cloud solution. Now, let’s say you are building the API for your app with Spring Boot and you are using AWS S3 as your public cloud solution. How would you do that? This blog post contains the code that can help you achieve that. Read more below,  Upload to AWS S3 bucket from Java Spring Boot app - My Day To-Do (mydaytodo.com)

Addressing app review rejections for auto-renewing subscription in-app purchase (iOS)

The ability to know what the weather is like while planning your day is a feature of  My Day To-Do  Pro and as of the last update it’s also a part of the  Lite version . Unlike the Pro version it’s an auto-renewing subscription based  in-app purchase (IAP)  in the Lite version. What means is that when a user purchases it, the user only pays for the subscription duration after which the user will be automatically charged for the next period. Adding an  auto-renewing  subscription based IAP proved to be somewhat challenging in terms of the app store review i.e. the app update was rejected by the App Review team thrice because of missing information about the IAP. Therefore in this post I will share my experiences and knowledge of adding auto-renewing IAP in hopes to save someone else the time that I had to spend on this problem. In-App purchase This year I started adding IAPs to My Day To-Do Lite which lead to learning about different types of IAP...

App update, discovering Protractor(testing) and an Angularjs State machine

So for the last couple of weeks, I have not be able to update my blog or finish a couple of the posts that I started writing. Well, I have...been a bit busy, with some the following things,  Testing my app I have been using the app( iOS ) on my iPhone for the past couple of months now, which is both good and bad. The good thing is I can test it and the bad thing is, I can use it every day. Part of the reason, I started building this app is to have something that I can and like to use everyday and since I am already using it, the incentive to release it is not as high as if it were something that I could not use. Anyway I did make some good progress over the last couple of weeks, like  Delete the app from my iPhone and do a clean install: this did help me find a few simple bugs that would pop-up when the app is first installed GET AN APP ICON, FINALLY! this was a bit of a hurdle and I thanks to Fiverr  and fivercrazyguy , I finally have my app icon. The day job ...
