The first public build. CHANGELOG's Unreleased section is rewritten as user-facing notes, since it becomes the beta's release notes. The README gains an install section, and the store short description fits Play's 80 characters.

Clockula is the clock sibling to [Calendula](https://codeberg.org/jlmakiola/calendula)
|
|
(calendar) and [Agendula](https://codeberg.org/jlmakiola/agendula) (tasks). The
|
|
name follows theirs: *clock*, given Calendula's `-ula` ending. A Calendula flower
|
|
head is botanically a cluster of many small *florets*, so the three apps are
|
|
florets of one bloom. They also share one library, [floret-kit](https://codeberg.org/jlmakiola/floret-kit).
|
|
|
|
> 🧪 **Beta.** Clockula 1.0.0 is in beta: feature-complete, and being tested
|
|
> before the stable release. See [Install](#install) to try it.
|
|
|
|
## The honest difference from its siblings
|
|
|
|
Calendula is a pure front-end over Android's `CalendarContract`. Agendula speaks
|
|
the dmfs `TaskContract`. Both put a good interface on a standard someone else
|
|
already maintains.
|
|
|
|
There is no open provider behind a clock. Alarms, timers and laps are
|
|
Clockula's own data, so Clockula is the first app in the family to own its
|
|
storage, and does so by design. The first section of
|
|
[`docs/PLAN.md`](docs/PLAN.md) sets out what takes the place of a shared
|
|
standard, and it comes down to three things:
|
|
|
|
- Clockula speaks Android's standard alarm contract. It implements
|
|
`android.provider.AlarmClock` in full, so your assistant and your automation
|
|
apps can set alarms and timers in it exactly as they would in any stock clock,
|
|
and the system status bar and lock screen show its next alarm.
|
|
- World clocks are IANA time zones, not a bespoke city list that goes stale.
|
|
- Your data exports to a documented, versioned JSON file whenever you want
|
|
it, because data you can't take with you isn't really yours.
|
|
|
|
## Alarms that actually ring
|
|
|
|
An alarm app is only worth having if you can trust it, so Clockula treats reliability
|
|
as the main feature. Alarms are scheduled as real alarm clocks (doze-exempt and
|
|
visible to the system) and re-resolved against your current time
|
|
zone whenever anything moves underneath them, so DST and travel don't silently
|
|
shift them.
|
|
|
|
When something on your device *would* stop an alarm ringing, Clockula tells you
|
|
which setting it is and takes you there, instead of failing quietly at 7am.
|
|
|
|
## Install
|
|
|
|
Betas are published as pre-releases on
|
|
[Codeberg](https://codeberg.org/jlmakiola/clockula/releases), with the signed
|
|
APK and a `.sha256` checksum attached. Download the APK there, or add
|
|
`https://codeberg.org/jlmakiola/clockula` to
|
|
[Obtainium](https://github.com/ImranR98/Obtainium) and switch on *Include
|
|
prereleases* for it so it finds the beta. A beta updates in place to later betas
|
|
and to the stable release.
|
|
|
|
From the stable 1.0.0 on, every release also goes to the self-hosted F-Droid
|
|
repository that serves Calendula and Agendula.
|
|
|
|
## Documentation
|
|
|
|
Start with [`docs/`](docs/): [`PLAN.md`](docs/PLAN.md) is the spec and the
|
|
reasoning, [`ROADMAP.md`](docs/ROADMAP.md) is the status,
|
|
[`ARCHITECTURE.md`](docs/ARCHITECTURE.md) is how the code is put together, and
|
|
[`RELEASING.md`](docs/RELEASING.md) is the release runbook.
|
|
|
|
## Building
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
git clone --recurse-submodules https://codeberg.org/jlmakiola/clockula.git
|
|
cd clockula
|
|
./gradlew assembleDebug
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
floret-kit is a submodule built from source as a Gradle composite build, so
|
|
`--recurse-submodules` is not optional. The included build needs to find the
|
|
Android SDK on its own: either export `ANDROID_HOME`, or drop a `sdk.dir=…` line
|
|
in a (gitignored) `floret-kit/local.properties`.
