This is an update to 4d1851e6 commit.
The toggle logic change previously was actually being applied to ctrl+alt+k hardware keyboard shortcut instead of the mentioned extra keys "KEYBOARD" toggle. However, now it applies to the extra keys "KEYBOARD" toggle button as well, in addition to drawer "KEYBOARD" toggle button and ctrl+alt+k hardware keyboard shortcut. They will all behave the same now.
Updated onSingleTapUp() to also forcefully show keyboard.
Fixed issue where "hide-soft-keyboard-on-startup" property wasn't respected anymore due to forced keyboard showing done in 4d1851e6.
Removed "stateAlwaysVisible" flag from AndroidManifest since its ignored in Android 10 by default and not needed due to usage of InputMethodManager.showSoftInput(). https://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/WindowManager.LayoutParams#SOFT_INPUT_STATE_ALWAYS_VISIBLE
Moved "adjustResize" from AndroidManifest into java code (which is also deprecated in API 30) to centralize keyboard logic.
For Termux app to be able to show a soft keyboard while a hardware keyboard is attached requires either of 2 cases:
1. User has enabled "Show on-screen keyboard while hardware keyboard is attached" toggle in Android "Language and Input" settings.
2. The toggle is disabled, but the soft keyboard app overrides the default implementation of `InputMethodService.onEvaluateInputViewShown()` and returns `true`. Some keyboard apps have a setting for this, like HackerKeyboard, but its not supported by all keyboard apps.

Termux previously didn't forcefully show a keyboard when the drawer "KEYBOARD" toggle button was pressed and only did that for the "KEYBOARD" extra keys toggle button. This prevented the keyboard to be shown for case 2 even when the user attempted to show the keyboard with the drawer "KEYBOARD" toggle. Now both buttons will forcefully show the keyboard.
Moreover, previously at app startup for case 2, the keyboard wasn't being shown. Now it will automatically be shown without requiring a manual press of a "KEYBOARD" toggle button.
This may also solve the issue where the soft keyboard wouldn't show even when the toggle of case 1 was enabled.
This only reverts the versioning login change done in a6ae656c since that caused F-Droid bot and Github Packages to fail to pick up new releases. The versions must be bumped directly in `build.gradle` file in future and not through other files like `gradle.properties`.
Changes were made to bootstrap reinstallation logic in 107927f5, but it wasn't considering that PREFIX may be a symlink file to a directory instead of a directory file. With this commit, the previous behaviour of termux is restored where PREFIX can optionally be a symlink to a valid directory where the symlink isn't broken/dangling.
The TermuxInstaller.setupBootstrapIfNeeded() previously only checked if PREFIX directory existed or not to decide whether to install bootstrap or not. Now it will also check if its empty or only contains the tmp directory, since in that case the PREFIX must be deleted and bootstrap reinstalled, otherwise a broken environment will be loaded since no termux binaries/libs would exist.
It will now also delete any file at the prefix or staging prefix path, even if its not a directory. If the user does not want the bootstrap to be installed for some reason, then any other file other than "tmp" can be created under PREFIX.
The TMPDIR was being automatically cleared and recreated even if it didn't already exist when TermuxService was stopped. This left an empty TMPDIR in the PREFIX directory when termux-reset was run and on termux restart the bootstrap wasn't installed again because PREFIX directory already existed. This resulted in a broken environment since no binaries/libs existed under PREFIX and /system/bin/sh was loaded.
This issue was created due to v0.109.
From now on
- TERMUX_ACTIVITY.ACTION_REQUEST_PERMISSIONS should be used for requesting storage permissions.
- TERMUX_ACTIVITY.ACTION_RELOAD_STYLE should be used for reloading styling.
- TERMUX_ACTIVITY.EXTRA_RELOAD_STYLE which was previously used for requesting storage permissions if its value equaled "storage" has been deprecated.
If more actions need to be supported in future, add them to TermuxActivity.registerTermuxActivityBroadcastReceiver() IntentFilter.
This will allow passing scripts (to bash or python) or other data to an executable via stdin. Arguments are passed to the executable and not the script.
- com.termux.app.terminal.TermuxViewClient has been renamed to TermuxTerminalViewClient
- com.termux.app.terminal.TermuxSessionClient has been renamed to TermuxTerminalSessionClient
- com.termux.shared.shell.TermuxSessionClientBase has been renamed to TermuxTerminalSessionClientBase
This was required because com.termux.app.terminal.TermuxSessionClient was in conflict with com.termux.shared.shell.TermuxSessionClient interface of com.termux.shared.shell.TermuxSession.
TermuxSession, TermuxTask and TermuxSessionClientBase have been moved to termux-shared. They are now not dependent on TermuxService anymore and have become abstract so that they can be called from anywhere. TermuxSession.TermuxSessionClient and TermuxTask.TermuxTaskClient interfaces have been created for callbacks, which the TermuxService now implements.
The TermuxTask now also supports synchronous command execution as well to run shell commands from anywhere for internal use by termux app and its plugins.
TermuxTask now also supports killing the process being run by sending it a SIGKILL. This is used by TermuxService to kill all the TermuxTasks (in addition to TermuxSessions) it manages when it is destroyed, either by user exiting it or by android killing it. Only the tasks that were started by a plugin which **expects** the result back via a pending intent will be killed, but the remaining background tasks will keep on running until the termux app process is killed by android, like by OOM. Check TermuxService.killAllTermuxExecutionCommands() for more details on how TermuxService kills TermuxTasks and TermuxSessions.
Fixed null pointer exception when getting terminal transcript if TerminalEmulator not initialized.
The termux plugins should use this library instead of hardcoding "com.termux" values in their source code.
The library can be included as a dependency by plugins and third party apps by including the following line in the build.gradle where x.xxx is the version number, once its published.
`implementation 'com.termux:termux-shared:x.xxx'`
The `TermuxConstants` class has been updated to `v0.17.0`, `TermuxPreferenceConstants` to `v0.9.0` and `TermuxPropertyConstants` to `v0.6.0`. Check their Changelog sections for info on changes.
Some typos and redundant code has also been fixed.
Now whenever the Termux app crashes, the crash report (stacktrace, app and device info) will be logged to ~/crash_log.md file. When the user will reopen the app, a notification will be shown which when clicked will show the crash report content in the ReportActivity. The activity will have important links like email, reddit, github issues of termux app and packages at which the user can optionally report an issue if necessary after copying the crash report text. The ~/crash_log.md file will be moved to ~/crash_log-backup.md so that a notification is not shown again on next startup and can be viewed again via SAF, etc.
This will allow reports for bugs that are submitted to have complete and useful info, specially in markdown format, making lives of devs a tad bit easier. Also more bugs that are rare might be submitted since users will have the info to report with and know where to report at.
ToDo:
- The TermuxConstants.TERMUX_SUPPORT_EMAIL_URL needs to be updated with a valid support email once its set up. The TermuxUtils.getReportIssueMarkdownString() function currently also has "email" lines commented out which will need to be uncommented.
- Currently, crashes will only be handled for the main app thread, other threads will have to manually hooked into where necessary.
This will allow users to control if a notification should be shown with the crash info when app is restarted after a crash
The `TermuxPreferenceConstants` classes has been updated to `v0.8.0`. Check its Changelog section for info on changes.
A lot of utils have been defined now that can be used to safely manage files.
The java java.io.File API has poor support for detecting symlinks including broken symlinks. Android implementation also has issues. Check FileTypes.getFileType() function for more info. For this reason, the UnixFileAttributes and related classes has been ported from AOSP to get file attributes and type.
Some file utils and android versions use google's Guava com.google.common.io.MoreFiles library for managing files, specially for safer directory deletion with SecureDirectoryStream.
Some file utils and android versions use org.apache.commons.io.FileUtils for managing files. The library version used is 2.5 and it must not be incremented for compatibility with android version < 8, otherwise runtime crashes will occur.
- PackageUtils has been added to get various package related info. This will be used to get info based on Context objects instead of using BuildConfig which wouldn't have been available across termux plugins.
- Support for getting Context objects of all termux plugin apps have been added to TermuxUtils.
- Support for showing more details for the app has been added for ReportActivity. This will also allow app info of Termux app to be generated when TermuxUtils.getAppInfoMarkdownString() is called by a termux plugin so that both are shown so that devs/users can more easily detect compatibility issues.
- ReportActivity has been fixed to also include report and device info instead of just the ExecutionCommand info when copying and sharing.
- Moved the generation of markdown for ReportInfo to its own class and added creationTimestamp field.
- Increased markdown headings size for some cases.
Users can toggle the state from Settings -> Keyboard I/O -> Soft Keyboard toggle.
Android phone should also have an internal setting for disabling soft keyboard when a hardware keyboard is connected in Language and Input android settings or from the input mode selection notification, but the above setting will be Termux app specific and will allow soft keyboard to still be shown in other apps.
The `TermuxPreferenceConstants` classes has been updated to `v0.7.0`. Check its Changelog section for info on changes.
