Breaking changes

Support library

To be able to support Android O, Upload Service uses the latest support libraries 26.0.0 so if you are using support libraries < 26 in your app, make sure to remove any com.android.support:support-v4:25.+ or lower in your gradle file, otherwise you will get a NoSuchMethodException at runtime.

Namespace

Setting NAMESPACE (as described in Setup) is now mandatory, to prevent misconfiguration which can lead to sensible data leakage fixed in #305 and #306. If you have not set the NAMESPACE, you will get this exception at runtime:

java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to start service net.gotev.uploadservice.UploadService@32340b1 with Intent { act=net.gotev.uploadservice.action.upload cmp=net.gotev.uploadservicedemo/net.gotev.uploadservice.UploadService (has extras) }: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Hey dude, please set the namespace for your app by following the setup instructions: https://github.com/gotev/android-upload-service/wiki/Setup

Minor release which solves #303

This release:

• enhances stability
• reduces battery usage by auto shutting down the service after an idle time
• reduces memory leaks
• improves public API for delegates and broadcast receivers
• introduces notitication action support
• makes the notification configuration more complete and finely tuneable

Check milestone 3.3 issues for more details

If you are migrating from 3.2.x, these are the breaking changes:

• UploadNotificationConfig has been completely redesigned, to allow more customization. See changes
• delegates and broadcast receiver's onError method has an additional parameter serverResponse. See changes
• The onCompleted callback gets called only if the server response code is >= 200 and < 400, so you have to handle both networking and server response errors in the onError method now. Previous to 3.3, you had to handle networking errors in onError and server response errors in onCompleted

Fixed OkHttp version to 3.8.0 and updated build tools to 25.0.2
