[Lib] Scringo for Basic4Android is live!
Hi all, We just released Scringo's support for Basic4Android.
For those of you who don't know Scringo, it's a Social Sidebar with lots of stuff you can add there. Just a few features:
1. Chat - your users can talk to each other
2. Activity Feed - your users can see what interesting things other people are doing in your app
3. Like button - you can add it and let users see what other people like in your app
4. Feedback - let your users send you feedback about your app
5. Rate us - let them rate the app
6. Push notifications - send push notifications and system messages to your users
7. Chat room - start a topic and let your users say express themselves (managed and moderated using the dev zone)
8. Custom buttons - don't know where to place a button - place it on the sidebar and get a notification once it is clicked
And lotsa other stuff. It's all configurable from our dev zone, no need for an upgrade to add or remove features once you integrated the SDK.
And of course, it's all free.
Here's a demo project: http://www.b4x.com/android/files/ScringoB4AExample.zip
Attached are the library files (jar and xml). Place them in your libs folder and include them in your b4a project.
Then you'll need to follow these steps:
1. Register in scringo.com, get an App ID, and download the SDK. (use this link instead of the one in the dev zone, customized for B4A devs: https://dev.scringo.com/downloads/scringo-android-2.2.2-b4a.zip)
2. Open the zip and place the jars from the libs folder in your b4a libs folder (should be the same folder as above).
3. Add the contents of the ScringoManifest.txt from the zip using the B4A Manifest Editor (Project -> Manifest Editor -> Paste this: )
5. add the scringo.properties from the zip to the Files folder and add it to the B4A project in the Files tab, edit the file and add your Scringo app ID in the scringo.app.id property
6. Add some (or all) of this code to your code (assuming you have a MainLayout with Button1 in it):
That's it, you're good to go. Tell us how it went!

4. Merge the res folder from the ScringoResources with your Objects/res, and set them all to read-only (In a Windows Browser, Right click the folder -> Read Only, no need to do it one by one)AddApplicationText(
<Contents of ScringoManifest.txt>
)
5. add the scringo.properties from the zip to the Files folder and add it to the B4A project in the Files tab, edit the file and add your Scringo app ID in the scringo.app.id property
6. Add some (or all) of this code to your code (assuming you have a MainLayout with Button1 in it):
B4X:
Sub Globals
Dim myScringo As Scringo
End Sub
Sub Activity_Create(FirstTime As Boolean)
Activity.LoadLayout("MainLayout")
myScringo.Initialize
End Sub
Sub Activity_Resume
myScringo.onStart
End Sub
Sub Activity_Pause (UserClosed As Boolean)
myScringo.onStop
End Sub
Sub Activity_KeyPress (KeyCode As Int) As Boolean
If KeyCode = KeyCodes.KEYCODE_BACK Then
If myScringo.onBackPressed Then
Return True
End If
End If
Return False
End Sub
Sub Button1_Click
myScringo.openMenu
End SubThat's it, you're good to go. Tell us how it went!
