I wanted to give the PR template mentioned in this article a try, but apparently it will only show up when its merged to the main branch. So we'd first have to merge it to see how it will work 😬

I added it to the XCode project so you can easily edit the template rendered in markdown 💅 To make it render this post said i had to add some .xcodesamplecode.plist file. But please correct me if i'm wrong 😬

Thought it would be cool if the sun would animate to it's current position when you open the app. Code is a bit messy though with states like startAnimationInProgress and startAnimationInProgress 🙈

Changed the SunPhaseManager to be SunPhaseScheduler, its role is basically to notify the controllers for when the UI should change and with what. I'm not 100% sold on the name, but I believe is an improvement.

Also SunPhaseScheduler requests the owner for the sunPhase instead of using a variable for this. Thanks to this we can detach storing a sun phase in the scheduler as well, making it simpler.

Description

This pull request contains changes to package management, updates to Swift 5 and iOS 14 widget support (small and medium). Bug fixing due to updating to iOS 14 and updating LocationTracker due to deprecated authorizeStatus function

I've tried to make a large widget that shows the sun location using SunView, however, I found out WidgetKit prevents too many updates. Converting UIVIew to View with UIViewRepresentable will not work in a Widget for that reason. Alternative methods I tried are screenshot the view after instantiating it or recreate it in View but with no success. I believe this is where my knowledge ends with Swift. In case anyone is interested to pick this up that would be amazing 🙏

Now, the widget retrieves user location and time to show a message and location. Just like inside the app, and it changes the Theme color depending on the day.

Type of Change

• [x] iOS 14 Widget (small, medium)
• [x] Fix authorizeStatus deprecation fix
• [x] Package manger from Carthage to Swift Package Manager
• [x] Fix share button
• [x] Convert to Swift 5
• [x] Fix presenting main modal to fullscreen

Proof that it works

P.S. I'm not a Swift developer, if you see any flaws or possible ways to improve the code, please feel free to make changes. The latest Testflight build that contains the latest update is 1.9.0 Build 58.

I love the Daylight app. For me personally the notifications are too much though, but I'm also not going to open the app everyday. I think this is a nice example for a Today Widget. This PR is an initial attempt at a simple Today Widget that shows the same message like the app and also the sunrise & sunset times.

I've just added the necessary files to the target. One idea would be to move the whole Library directory into it's own framework. But that's probably a bit overkill for now. Let me know what you think. Happy to change things :)

There's delay on the changing from on to off, when i click on the bottom i don't get any feedback that something is actually happening. We should show feedback or make the change instant.

The masking works fine! But I found that updating the constraints for the sun isn't working right. I'm doing it exactly the same as updating the constraints on the MainController for the messageView though 🤔

I thought the use of the word controller was very ambigious now that i added a DaylightModelController so i decided to rename all VeiewControllers to be explicitly names ViewControllers and to refer to the DaylightModelController as daylightModelController in parameters or properties.

I also unified the naming of the update functions to be update(withDaylightModelController daylightModelController: DaylightModelController)

I tested it by checking wether the word controller was unes anywhere in the project by itself :)

• [x] The position of the sun when the animation ends doesnt always align with the sun position 🐛
• [x] Disable animation when the moon is show (maybe just fade the moon in slowly?)
• [x] I'd also like it if the sun animates to it's new position when you re-enter the app
• [ ] Refactor the way the app decided wether the animation should be shown. It feels to dependant on states right now which makes it prone for bugs!

I got this error message when i had nu interwebz connection:

Should be a more human messages, and we should decide how we update the interface in that case. Should we leave it to the last known data or do something else?
