Source code?

[robertoestivill]

I see no source code in the repository.
There's even a license declared but no content other than the readme file.
Are you planning to really open source it?

Hi @robertoestivill, there are no plans to publish source code at the moment. What are you looking for in the source code?

Reopening to clarify the license in the README.

Hi @jsedlacek thanks for your speedy reply :)

I guess I was looking documentation, which will become secondary if the source code was available. I'm working on a prototype to test SatisMeter functionality, sdk, customizations, stability, etc.

Here's a couple of questions that came to my mind when analyzing this tool.

1. The initialization of the component is behind a static method SatisMeter.identify(context, "", "user_id", traits) .

   • Is the component an activity, fragment, view?
   • Can I integrated into my own UI?
   • Can I inflate it differently? override UI attributes maybe ?

2. After some debugging, I realised that the static method actually launches an Activity. So a bunch of other questions came up:

   • Do I have to declared this activity in my AndroidManifest?
   • Will this activity stay in the history? does it support landscape? does it support pausing/resuming with state restoration?
   • Let say an ActivityOne solely exists to configure and launch SatisMeter. After launching it with the static method, ActivityOne is finished. Will SatisMeter behave correctly if the passed ActivityOne's context becomes unusable at some point? Should we use the applicationContext instead for this?

3. After the first time I submitted the nps rating, the component didn't show up anymore. It made me doubt about the integration and implementation. After debugging I noticed that the server sends back a flag not to display it anymore. However no message like "you already submitted your score" or callback is available. It's worth mentioning that I don't have access to the backend account, I just got the keys, therefore I can not customize and fully understand what options might belong to a backend configuration and which ones might be available in the client/sdk.

4. There doesn't seem to be any sort of caching of the survey config, as every time
   SatisMeter.identify is called a new instance/request/etc is created.

By the way, the source code is actually available in Jcenter as part of the SatisMeter-1.1.X-sources.jar and SatisMeter-1.1.X.aar, so I would assume that hosting the code here is, for some reason, an extra complication for your organization.

For most of this questions I have already found an answer, however it would be nicer not to have to dig them out.
I hope this clarifies the reason why I initially opened this issue.
Thanks
