I need to check current version of Installed Application and Playstore application version. If it is not same app should navigate to Playstore .
im using xam.Plugin.LatestVersion(2.1.0) To get the latestversion number of application from play console. unfortunately not getting latest version number of application from play store. The below code im using.
private async void ChekAppVersion()
{
try
{
latestVersionNumber = await CrossLatestVersion.Current.GetLatestVersionNumber();
installedVersionNumber = CrossLatestVersion.Current.InstalledVersionNumber;
if (installedVersionNumber != latestVersionNumber)
{
await DisplayAlert("New Version", "There is a new version of this app available. Please update now?", "Ok");
await CrossLatestVersion.Current.OpenAppInStore();
ChekAppVersion();
}
else
{
}
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
}
}
Im getting the installedVersionNumber, but im unable to get the latestVersionNumber(Playstore).
Please help on this.
They have removed the version from div, now it's displayed with js, but data is still there inside a <script> tag. My current fixed code is:
private bool _lockCheckUpdates;
public async Task<bool> CheckNeedUpdate()
{
if (Connectivity.NetworkAccess != NetworkAccess.Internet || _lockCheckUpdates)
return false;
_lockCheckUpdates = true;
try
{
HttpClient myClient = CreateClient();
if (Device.RuntimePlatform == Device.Android)
{
var bundle = "com.todo.app"; //ANDROID BUNDLE NAME HERE
string url = $"https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id={bundle}&hl=en";
string raw = await myClient.GetStringAsync(new Uri(url));
var doc = new HtmlDocument();
doc.LoadHtml(raw);
var scripts = doc.DocumentNode.Descendants()
.Where(n => n.Name == "script" && n.InnerText.Contains("AF_initDataCallback({key: 'ds:4'"))
.ToArray();
var script = scripts.First().InnerText;
var engine = new Jurassic.ScriptEngine();
var eval = "(function() { var AF_initDataCallback = function(p) { return p.data[1][2][140][0][0][0]; }; return " + script + " })()";
var result = engine.Evaluate(eval);
//var json = JSONObject.Stringify(engine, result); //for debug, check in browser console with JSON.parse(json)
var remote = $"{result}".ToDouble();
var local = App.Version.ToDouble();
return local < remote;
}
else if (Device.RuntimePlatform == Device.iOS)
{
var bundle = "com.todo.app";//iOS BUNDLE NAME HERE
string url = $"http://itunes.apple.com/lookup?bundleId={bundle}";
string raw = await myClient.GetStringAsync(new Uri(url));
var dto = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<AppStoreRecord>(raw);
double local = App.Version.ToDouble();
if (dto.ResultCount > 0)
{
double remote = dto.Results[0].Version.ToDouble();
return remote > local;
}
}
}
catch (Exception e)
{
Logger.Error("CheckNeedUpdate", e);
}
finally
{
_lockCheckUpdates = false;
}
return false;
}
Using nugets
Jurassic to evaluate the script on page,
HtmlAgilityPack to parse html,
Xamarin.Essentials to check if we are online,
and AppoMobi.Specials for .ToDouble() etc
I hope this could also be useful to fix https://github.com/edsnider/latestversionplugin/issues/43 :)
The plugin you are using no longer works for Android https://github.com/edsnider/latestversionplugin/issues/43
You will need to find a new way to get the desired information.
PR has been made on this plugin... it works again ;-)

I want to create a Gatt Server in my Xamarin.Forms app so that other devices can scan for it via bluetooth. I am using this plugin:
https://github.com/aritchie/bluetoothle
This is my code to create a Gatt Server and advertise data:
server = CrossBleAdapter.Current.CreateGattServer();
var service = server.AddService(serviceGuid, true);
var characteristic = service.AddCharacteristic(
characteristicGuid,
CharacteristicProperties.Read |
CharacteristicProperties.Write | CharacteristicProperties.WriteNoResponse,
GattPermissions.Read | GattPermissions.Write
);
var notifyCharacteristic = service.AddCharacteristic
(
notifyCharacteristicGuid,
CharacteristicProperties.Indicate | CharacteristicProperties.Notify,
GattPermissions.Read | GattPermissions.Write
);
IDisposable notifyBroadcast = null;
notifyCharacteristic.WhenDeviceSubscriptionChanged().Subscribe(e =>
{
var #event = e.IsSubscribed ? "Subscribed" : "Unsubcribed";
if (notifyBroadcast == null)
{
notifyBroadcast = Observable
.Interval(TimeSpan.FromSeconds(1))
.Where(x => notifyCharacteristic.SubscribedDevices.Count > 0)
.Subscribe(_ =>
{
Debug.WriteLine("Sending Broadcast");
var dt = DateTime.Now.ToString("g");
var bytes = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes("SendingBroadcast");
notifyCharacteristic.Broadcast(bytes);
});
}
});
characteristic.WhenReadReceived().Subscribe(x =>
{
var write = "HELLO";
// you must set a reply value
x.Value = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(write);
x.Status = GattStatus.Success; // you can optionally set a status, but it defaults to Success
});
characteristic.WhenWriteReceived().Subscribe(x =>
{
var write = Encoding.UTF8.GetString(x.Value, 0, x.Value.Length);
Debug.WriteLine("in WhenWriteReceived() value: " + write);
// do something value
});
await server.Start(new AdvertisementData
{
LocalName = "DariusServer",
ServiceUuids = new List<Guid>() { serverServiceGuid }
});
I am using this app to scan for my advertisement data:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=no.nordicsemi.android.mcp
I can't discover my app with it. I don't know what I'm doing wrong? I am testing with a real device, SM-T350 tablet
I spent countless hours to get this plugin to work with no luck. But this native code works for anyone else who has the same problem:
private async Task AndroidBluetooth()
{
try
{
await Task.Delay(5000); // just to make sure bluetooth is ready to go, this probably isn't needed, but good for peace of mind during testing
BluetoothLeAdvertiser advertiser = BluetoothAdapter.DefaultAdapter.BluetoothLeAdvertiser;
var advertiseBuilder = new AdvertiseSettings.Builder();
var parameters = advertiseBuilder.SetConnectable(true)
.SetAdvertiseMode(AdvertiseMode.Balanced)
//.SetTimeout(10000)
.SetTxPowerLevel(AdvertiseTx.PowerHigh)
.Build();
AdvertiseData data = (new AdvertiseData.Builder()).AddServiceUuid(new ParcelUuid(Java.Util.UUID.FromString("your UUID here"))).Build();
MyAdvertiseCallback callback = new MyAdvertiseCallback();
advertiser.StartAdvertising(parameters, data, callback);
}
catch(Exception e)
{
}
}
public class MyAdvertiseCallback : AdvertiseCallback
{
public override void OnStartFailure([GeneratedEnum] AdvertiseFailure errorCode)
{
// put a break point here, in case something goes wrong, you can see why
base.OnStartFailure(errorCode);
}
public override void OnStartSuccess(AdvertiseSettings settingsInEffect)
{
base.OnStartSuccess(settingsInEffect);
}
}
}
Just to note, it wouldn't work if if I included the device name, because the bluetooth transmission would be too large in that case with a service UUID (max 31 bytes I believe).
This is a followup to my previous question: Xamarin.Forms App return data to calling App
That works perfectly and I can share images to anywhere, except to Facebook comments. When I click the camera on the content box the app can be selected, I can select the image, Set result and Finish are called, and the app closes and it sends data to Facebook, and then however I then get the error : The image could not be uploaded, try again?
I can't find any fundamental differences between posting to a status or a comment, so I'm guessing it's subtle. Any thoughts on how I can change my intent to post properly?
Adding for completeness:
Bitmap b = null;
string url;
if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(this.saleItems[i].ImageUrl))
{
url = this.saleItems[i].ImageUrl;
}
else
{
url = await FileHelper.GetLocalFilePathAsync(this.saleItems[i].Id);
}
//download
using (var webClient = new WebClient())
{
var imageBytes = webClient.DownloadData(url);
if (imageBytes != null && imageBytes.Length > 0)
{
b = BitmapFactory.DecodeByteArray(imageBytes, 0, imageBytes.Length);
}
}
//set local path
var tempFilename = "test.png";
var sdCardPath = Android.OS.Environment.ExternalStorageDirectory.AbsolutePath;
var filePath = System.IO.Path.Combine(sdCardPath, tempFilename);
using (var os = new FileStream(filePath, FileMode.Create))
{
b.Compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.Png, 100, os);
}
b.Dispose();
var imageUri = Android.Net.Uri.Parse($"file://{sdCardPath}/{tempFilename}");
var sharingIntent = new Intent();
sharingIntent.SetAction(Intent.ActionSend);
sharingIntent.SetType("image/*");
sharingIntent.PutExtra(Intent.ExtraText, "some txt content");
sharingIntent.PutExtra(Intent.ExtraStream, imageUri);
sharingIntent.AddFlags(ActivityFlags.GrantReadUriPermission);
//await SaleItemDataService.Instance.BuySaleItemAsync(this.saleItem);
SetResult(Result.Ok, sharingIntent);
Finish();
Use below:
Intent sharingIntent = new Intent();
string imageUri = "file://" + requestedUri;
sharingIntent.SetData(Android.Net.Uri.Parse(imageUri));
I use Xamarin-CrossDownloadManager (https://github.com/SimonSimCity/Xamarin-CrossDownloadManager) and I need waiting for download a file. I have this code:
private static async Task<bool> FileDownloadedTest(string LinkToFile, string PathFile)
{
var downloadManager = CrossDownloadManager.Current;
CrossDownloadManager.Current.PathNameForDownloadedFile = new System.Func<IDownloadFile, string>(file => {
return PathFile;
});
{
await DeleteFile(PathFile);
var file = downloadManager.CreateDownloadFile(LinkToFile);
await Task.Run(() => downloadManager.Start(file, true)); //why this not wait???
}
bool FileExist = await IsFileExist(PathFile);
return FileExist;
}
Why it not wait for finish download action? How to do it?
On library site they wrote, that I can watch the IDownloadManager.Queue to get information when the file is downloaded. But, I don't know how to use this in my method... Can you help me?
PS: Sorry for my english, I'm still learning it ;)
With that library, there is no callback or event published for when a file is finished downloading, but you can do a simple check and wait some more loop.
await Task.Run(async () =>
{
var downloadManager = CrossDownloadManager.Current;
var file = downloadManager.CreateDownloadFile(someFileBasedUrl);
downloadManager.Start(file);
bool isDownloading = true;
while (isDownloading)
{
await Task.Delay(10 * 1000);
isDownloading = IsDownloading(file);
}
});
The IsDownloading method:
bool IsDownloading(IDownloadFile file)
{
if (file == null) return false;
switch (file.Status)
{
case DownloadFileStatus.INITIALIZED:
case DownloadFileStatus.PAUSED:
case DownloadFileStatus.PENDING:
case DownloadFileStatus.RUNNING:
return true;
case DownloadFileStatus.COMPLETED:
case DownloadFileStatus.CANCELED:
case DownloadFileStatus.FAILED:
return false;
default:
throw new ArgumentOutOfRangeException();
}
}
Re: https://github.com/SimonSimCity/Xamarin-CrossDownloadManager/blob/develop/Sample/DownloadExample/Downloader.cs#L46
I don't know why IDownloadFile.Status = COMPLETED not working, but i found solve problem:
await Task.Run(() =>
{
var downloadManager = CrossDownloadManager.Current;
var file = downloadManager.CreateDownloadFile(LinkToFile);
downloadManager.Start(file);
while (file.Status == DownloadFileStatus.INITIALIZED)
{
while (file.TotalBytesExpected > file.TotalBytesWritten)
{
Debug.WriteLine(file.Status);
}
}
});
Somebody know why DownloadFileStatus.INITIALIZED working, but DownloadFileStatus.COMPLETED not?
SushiHangover's answer above worked great, and I combined it with ACR User Dialog's package (https://github.com/aritchie/userdialogs) to show a nice loading progress screen to the user while waiting for the download to complete. This works nicely on Android (I couldn't test iOS yet).
...
var downloadManager = CrossDownloadManager.Current;
var fileToDownload = downloadManager.CreateDownloadFile(args.Url);
downloadManager.Start(fileToDownload, true);
args.Cancel = true;
UserDialogs.Instance.Progress("Downloading").Show();
bool isDownloading = true;
while (isDownloading)
{
await Task.Delay(100);
if (fileToDownload.TotalBytesExpected > 0)
{
UserDialogs.Instance.Progress().PercentComplete = (int)(fileToDownload.TotalBytesWritten / fileToDownload.TotalBytesExpected * 100);
Console.WriteLine(("DOWNLOAD PROGRESS: " + fileToDownload.TotalBytesWritten / fileToDownload.TotalBytesExpected * 100).ToString() + "%");
}
isDownloading = IsDownloading(fileToDownload);
}
UserDialogs.Instance.Progress().Hide();
//Below code opens the download location after download has completed.
Intent intent = new Intent(DownloadManager.ActionViewDownloads);
intent.AddFlags(ActivityFlags.NewTask);
Android.App.Application.Context.StartActivity(intent);
return;
}
}
}
bool IsDownloading(IDownloadFile file)
{
if (file == null) return false;
switch (file.Status)
{
case DownloadFileStatus.INITIALIZED:
case DownloadFileStatus.PAUSED:
case DownloadFileStatus.PENDING:
case DownloadFileStatus.RUNNING:
return true;
case DownloadFileStatus.COMPLETED:
case DownloadFileStatus.CANCELED:
case DownloadFileStatus.FAILED:
return false;
default:
throw new ArgumentOutOfRangeException();
}
}
