Add Scratch Everywhere! to the repo

[Dogo6647]

👋 I'm the maintainer of the official webOS port for the Scratch Everywhere! app and would like to submit it to the homebrew channel. Let me know if any change/clarification is needed!

[throwaway96]

The path starts with /media/developer. We don't really support cryptofs installations (yet?).

[Dogo6647]

oh yeah, while making the port i was wondering what the best location for reading/writing user files would be, and my research on that was rather inconclusive as apparently apps can't access something like USB drives (or at least I don't think they can...?), so I just decided to place it inside the app folder. By the way, could you clarify what you mean by "cryptofs"? to my knowledge I don't think our project uses it, it uses the /media/developer/apps/usr/palm/applications/.../... path, which I don't know if that's what you're referring to.

[mariotaku]

webOS has multiple locations to put apps/use/palm and I think he's referring to this.

Also webOS can access USB devices, which is located in /tmp/usb. However some devices has broken jail which prevents the app from accessing that mounting point.

[Dogo6647]

Alright, thanks for the info!
By the way and just to confirm, do you support using /media/developer/apps/usr/palm/applications/<app>/<user files folder>, which is what the app is currently using? If not then I'd have to wait until the next beta release to change the path where it looks for the user's sb3 files. I'd like to know if there's actually a change that needs to be made or if this is just an observation.

[throwaway96]

Yes, it should be able to write to its own app directory.

[throwaway96]

How are you planning to generate manifests?

FYI, the 30.1 IPK contains a static library: .../applications/io.github.scratcheverywhere/lib/libcurl.a

[Dogo6647]

How are you planning to generate manifests?

tbf no documentation was given on manifests, so I just took a look at manifests from other apps and assumed it would be something that I could just shove somewhere in our repo and just manually edit for every release (which is how we're updating the version number on our files anyway). I might do something like a github workflow and/or a python script in the future though.

FYI, the 30.1 IPK contains a static library: .../applications/io.github.scratcheverywhere/lib/libcurl.a

Oh yeah, that's something our project requires to do on every CMake platform, because it needs to ensure curl is built with the right configuration (mostly enabling websockets support).

@throwaway96 @mariotaku
Just wanted to check back on this PR... I tried to address the previous issues with it and then re-requested a review about two weeks ago. It's been a while and I assume you've probably forgotten about this, so I would appreciate another look when you get the chance. Thanks!

By the way, I still have one concern which I posted as a reply on the first review comment:

Did you remove libcurl.a from the IPK, or is that not possible until the next release?

Yeah, we'd have to wait until the next release for a new "stable" IPK. However, I have already applied the fix in the cmakelists for when that happens.

[mariotaku]

You forgot the yml extension ;)

[Dogo6647]

what. is this a bug from the check? apart from the controls image link warning, this doesn't seem right

[mariotaku]

@Dogo6647 Does the program check for presence of those symbols like SDL_GetWindowSizeInPixels before really calling them? Because webOS only have SDL2 up to 2.0.14.

I figured out why it was doing that... Another maintainer built that ipk and it turns out it doesn't work, same thing for today's beta release which is how I found out about that issue. I'm going to talk to them to see if I can help them build working IPKs and provide a temporary working IPK I'll build myself in the meantime.

EDIT: nvm, some recent change completely broke the webOS port and I can't produce functional builds anymore either
EDIT 2: this is so weird, when i run the executable directly from the command line it works fine but when i launch it from the app menu it just crashes

[throwaway96]

Could it be choking on command line arguments? (Apps are run with a JSON string as the first argument.)

Is it sensitive to the directory it's run from? Trying to access something not available when jailed?

You can check the logs in /var/log—in particular, messages and legacy-log (if present). You may have to enable dev logs to get useful information; see the logging page on webosbrew.org.

Try -e option in ares-package. I don't remember the exact format for ignore pattern, but it should be able to ignore .a files.
