This app will track the lat long of selected location and pass that to an api that will provide the wind power and directions.
Based on that information the app will send a notification to the user that the conditions to kitesurf are there.
Fly breezy folks
make sure you have docker-compose installed on your computer
navigate to ./support_api and run docker-compose up This will start a deamon that will figurate as the server which the application will talk to
When the app has started make sure to set the time to the current hour. Else the application won't send a notification as the timeframe doesn't add up
Change the IP address to your own IP adrress in the file
app/src/main/java/com/jandorresteijn/kiteapp/SyncService.kt
It very important to change this as this will be the server which the application talks to.
NOTE do not use localhost or 127.0.0.1 it need the actual IP adrress. localhost isn't allowed on android
NOTE the app now does request to the server const val DEFAULT_SYNC_INTERVAL = (30 * 100).toLong() in production this will be set to 35 min to send 1 message in a hour
NOTE notification can only changed before service started. The app will reuse the notification instance and the sound won't be reset. As it runs as a background progress the sound will only change on reboot/uninstall and then change. This will registrate the new sound
In the application there is button that will trigger the background service The start up intent doesn't registrate in a local setup this is why the trigger was implemented to show the service
