- Add electron platform section to capacitor.config.json
- Configure deep linking with timesafari:// scheme
- Set up build options for macOS, Windows, and Linux
- Configure output directory and file inclusion
- Add platform-specific build targets (DMG, NSIS, AppImage)
- Support both x64 and arm64 architectures for macOS
- Set appropriate app categories for each platform
This enables building TimeSafari as a native desktop application
using Capacitor's Electron platform while maintaining existing
mobile and web functionality.

- Fix TypeScript compilation errors in platform services
- Add missing rotateCamera method and isNativeApp property
- Fix index.html path resolution for packaged Electron apps
- Create separate Vite config for Electron renderer process
- Migrate from nostr-tools to @nostr/tools via JSR for ESM compatibility
- Update all Vite configs to handle mixed npm/JSR package management
- Add comprehensive documentation in BUILDING.md
- Fix preload script path resolution in packaged builds
Resolves build failures with deep imports and missing UI in AppImage.
- Updated ImageMethodDialog.vue to accept an isRegistered prop and show "Register to Upload a Photo" message instead of upload UI when not registered.
- Updated AccountViewView.vue to pass isRegistered to ImageMethodDialog and replace all profile photo add/upload buttons with the same message for unregistered users.
- Ensures consistent UX and prevents unregistered users from accessing any photo upload features.
- Add detailed macOS build procedure for Electron app
- Include instructions for Intel and Universal builds
- Add code signing and notarization requirements
- Document running instructions for .app, .dmg, and .zip formats
- Add security warning handling instructions
- Add comprehensive Docker deployment section
- Include build and run instructions for development and production
- Add Docker Compose configuration example
- Include troubleshooting guide for common Docker issues
- Document best practices for production deployment
- Refactor writeFile method to properly handle Android Storage Access Framework (SAF) URIs
- Update path construction for Android to use Download directory with correct permissions
- Enhance error handling and logging throughout file operations
- Add detailed logging for debugging file system operations
- Fix permission checking logic to handle "File does not exist" case correctly
- Improve error messages and stack traces in logs
- Add timestamp to all log entries for better debugging
- Use proper directory types (ExternalStorage for Android, Documents for iOS)
- Add UTF-8 encoding specification for file writes
This is a work in progress as we're still seeing permission issues with Android file writing.
- Change package name from app.timesafari.app to app.timesafari
- Fix ADB connection issues with server restart and retries
- Add interactive test flow with user prompts between tests
- Generate test data locally instead of external script
- Add proper cleanup of readline interface
- Fix URL scheme registration in Android manifest
Technical changes:
1. Remove duplicate SDK suppression entries
2. Update Gradle and build configurations
3. Add retry logic for flaky ADB connections
4. Add proper error handling for test data generation
5. Update all package references consistently
The changes improve Android testing by:
1. Making package naming consistent
2. Adding reliability to ADB connections
3. Adding user control over test flow
4. Providing better test progress visibility
5. Improving error handling and logging
- Add claim route to deep link schema
- Add claim view test to deeplink tests
- Update build docs for clean web builds
- Add rm -rf dist to build steps
Technical Changes:
- Add claim schema with id parameter
- Add claim route test using generated claim ID
- Add clean step before web/capacitor builds
- Update Android build instructions
This adds support for deep linking to claim views and
improves the build process reliability by ensuring clean
builds. The claim route allows direct navigation to claim
details via external links.
