NETNEWSWIRE IOS FOR MAC
NETNEWSWIRE IOS CODE

One of my goals, when I started learning, is to share what I have learnt via blog posts. The whole team is ramping up with the latest cool beta things and I learnt a ton by implementing some small set of features on the Settings screen for iOS/iPadOS. Since there are lots of improvements on 2.0, we have decided to try it to build the existing multi-platform app with the all-new SwiftUI multiplatform. For various reasons the team had to stop and rollback everything done on SwiftUI. They have already burnt the hand by investing some time last year when the SwiftUI 1.0 was released. Shameless plug:- It’s a cool app, you should check it outĪfter the WWDC, contributors to the project had a zoom call and decided to hop on the SwiftUI train. It’s an RSS reader app for iOS, iPadOS and macOS. I got the chance to learn SwiftUI from an open-source project called NetNewsWire. What is better than learning a new tech by building a real-world app? Here it goes my learnings… NetNewsWire I was unable to find a pre-existing issue for adding a new feed with an unencoded space in its URL.After the release of SwiftUI 2.0 on WWDC 2020, I got excited and want to learn more about it. This is how I found the issue.Ī related issue appears to have been fixed for unencoded spaces within feeds. dialog box in NetNewsWire preserves the unencoded space.

Copying the URL from Firefox 104.0.1 and pasting it into the New Web Feed. Manually encoding the space(s) as '%20' enables the 'Add' button, which then works to successfully add the feed.įor example this web page,, has a link to a corresponding RSS feed, Obama&searchType=author&view=grouped, where there is an unencoded space in 'Barack Obama' in the RSS feed URL. Specifically, the 'Add' button is greyed out in the New Web Feed. On NetNewsWire 6.1 (6106) on macOS 12.5.1, it does not appear to be possible to add a feed where the URL contains an unencoded space. 😉 That also argues against it really being a dupe of #2055, as that looked like being an encoding issue. I'm guessing that's where the problem is (adding feeds to Feedly), as there's presumably nothing about your own feed that your own app wouldn't like. This is the first feed I tried to add to the Feedly account from within NNW rather than its own web-based UI. Tried opening Firefox (I've only been trying Safari as default browser during Big Sur public beta), going to the blog homepage site, and clicking on the 'Add to Feedly' extension I already have installed on Firefox, added the feed in Feedly. Tried it pasting that url from the browser url bar instead of as offered by the app. Tried copying the home page URL and going to add-feed: 'Not found'. Tried copying the feed URL and going to add-feed: 'Not found'. (That's all the information given in the error dialog.) But of the subscriptions in it, one I wanted to add to Feedly was of course the one for NetNewsWire itself, to see future blog/announcements about the app.įirst thing I tried was to just drag it into the appropriate Feedly folder in the app. I noted the 'On My Mac' subscriptions on first load, but because I was importing Feedly, I was going to disable that account.

NNW 5.1 (3007) for Mac (Big Sur public beta), just downloaded for the first time today because of the new Feedly support, as I've been using Feedly since Google Reader was taken from us, and didn't want to stop (because I also use it on linux/windows). Raised as new partly because of the identity of the feed I was having trouble adding, and because it was my very first experience of the app, so potentially an onboarding issue? If you have any problems, we will help you out in Slack ( see above). Certain account types, like Feedly, aren't enabled and the Reader View isn't enabled because of this. This is because we have API keys that can't be stored in the repository or shared between developers. This is a special build of NetNewsWire with some functionality disabled.

Now you should be able to build without code signing errors and without modifying the NetNewsWire Xcode project. You can now open the NetNewsWire.xccodeproj in Xcode. Note that PROVISIONING_PROFILE_SPECIFIER should not have a value associated with it.

Set ORGANIZATION_IDENTIFIER to a reversed domain name that you control or have made up. You can use Keychain Access to find your development team ID. Set DEVELOPMENT_TEAM to your Apple supplied development team.
