📄 Context

An alternative approach to #879 . I wanted to avoid forcing users to modify their code somehow for Android 13, so went with the way where notification permission is added into Chucker's AndroidManifest. From a user side the only required action is to open Chucker after adding (ideally, via shortcut which we provide by default) and grant the permission. The flow feels like not the most convenient one, but I don't see other easier ways at the moment to handle this new permission request.

📝 Changes

Bumped targetSDK and compileSDK to 33
Added notifications permission handling on devices with Android 13

🚫 Breaking

Nothing breaking is expected

🛠️ How to test

Run Chucker sample on a device/emulator with Android 13 and try to open Chucker directly.

⏱️ Next steps

As I suggest to use the shortcut which we add, we might want to remove the possibility of disabling shortcut creation from our API to not confuse users.

Closes #854

Great stuff, I prefer this approach than mine 👍

The only thing is that I would save the:

    private fun shouldShowNotification() =
        if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.N) {
            !BaseChuckerActivity.isInForeground && notificationManager.areNotificationsEnabled()
        } else {
            !BaseChuckerActivity.isInForeground
        }

to be added inside NotificatioHelper.show as querying for areNotificationsEnabled seems to be the recommended way to verify if notifications are enabled 👍

might be worth also bumping app compat to 1.5.x in this same PR?

Yes, can do that as well.

+        }


Might be worth to also log here a success message?

I don't think it is worth it as logs usually already filled with enough noise by other apps, libraries.

Ok but you log a:

Logger.info("Notification permission granted")

Just below. Shoudl we remove that as well then?

Good catch. Didn't like empty braces initially. Removed.

I would make this a SnackBar as well with Long Duration.

We show toasts for all other fault/errors states. The reason I used Snackbar for redirection to Settings is to have an action button, so it is convenient to just click on it and end up in settings. Here we don't have any action and to be consistent with other failed operations (like exporting stuff, etc.) I use Toast.

Mmm I understand.

For me it was a bit odd as, when playing with the app I saw both the Toast and the SnackBar with the same error message, so I thought it was a bug.

I'm fine having it as a toast, but I would still have Duration Long as I barely had the time to read it.

Made it long.

+                        addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK)
+                        data = Uri.fromParts("package", packageName, null)
+                    }.also { intent ->
+                        startActivity(intent)
+                    }
+                }.show()


Here we're breaking a bit from the Google's guideline where the rationale should just explain why we need the permission and we should still allow the user to pick yes/no. If yes -> we should fire the permissionRequest.

Letting the user jump to the Settings screen sort of assumes that the user selected No on the past.

Yes, I did it on purpose as I assume that Chucker is used by devs, not regular users, so showing one more dialog to somebody, who disabled permission on purpose on first launch is going to be annoying. Devs know how and why permission is needed, especially, since showing notifications is what Chucker does.
Instead, you have a snackbar and can change settings if you wish or just mind your own business with Chucker without dismissing the dialog.
