Sidebar layout:
- Replace AdwNavigationSplitView with GtkPaned for a resizable sidebar
with a persistent width stored in GSettings.
- Apply navigation-sidebar CSS class to the content Stack only (not the
ToolbarView) so both header bars share the same colour and height.
- Override Adwaita's automatic paned-first-child header tint and gap via
application-level CSS.
- Remove the gap between the sidebar header and the first list item.
- Add toggle-sidebar button and F9 shortcut; sidebar visibility and width
are persisted across restarts.
Loading indicator:
- Replace the large AdwSpinner status page + header Stack with a small
Gtk.Spinner (16×16) in the header Stack so the header height never
changes during loading.
Article row:
- Add hexpand to title and excerpt labels so text reflows when the
sidebar is resized.
Content:
- Inline CSS into the HTML template at load time (/*INJECT_CSS*/
placeholder) so WebKit does not need a custom URI scheme handler.
- Fix max-width centering and padding for article body and header.
- Fix embedded video/iframe auto-opening in browser by checking
NavigationType::LinkClicked instead of is_user_gesture().
Content filters:
- Add Preferences dialog with a TextView for content-rewrite rules
stored in GSettings (content-filters key).
- Rule format: "domain find replace [find replace …]" one per line.
- Rules are applied to article HTML before display and reloaded on
every refresh.
Shortcuts:
- Add Ctrl+W to close, Ctrl+Q to quit, F1 for keyboard shortcuts
overlay, j/k and arrow-key navigation via a capture-phase controller
so keys work regardless of which widget has focus.
Misc:
- Set window title to "FeedTheMonkey" (fixes Hyprland title bar).
- Update About dialog website URL.
Add the full application logic on top of the Epic 1 skeleton:
Epic 2 — Authentication
- LoginDialog (AdwDialog, Blueprint template) with server URL,
username, and password fields; emits logged-in signal on submit
- credentials.rs: store/load/clear via libsecret (password_store_sync /
password_search_sync / password_clear_sync, v0_19 feature)
- api.rs: Api::login() parses Auth= token from ClientLogin response;
fetch_write_token() fetches the write token
- Auto-login on startup from stored credentials; logout with
AdwAlertDialog confirmation; login errors shown in AdwAlertDialog
Epic 3 — Article fetching
- model.rs: Article struct and ArticleObject GObject wrapper with
unread property for list store binding
- Api::fetch_unread() deserializes Google Reader JSON, derives unread
from categories, generates plain-text excerpt
- Sidebar uses a GtkStack with placeholder / loading / empty / error /
list pages; AdwSpinnerPaintable while fetching; Try Again button
Epic 4 — Sidebar
- article_row.blp: composite template with feed title, date, title,
and excerpt labels
- ArticleRow GObject subclass; binds ArticleObject, watches unread
notify to apply .dim-label on the title; relative timestamp format
Epic 5 — Content pane
- content.html updated: setArticle(), checkKey(), feedthemonkey: URI
navigation scheme; dark mode via prefers-color-scheme
- content.css: proper article layout, dark mode, code blocks
- WebView loaded from GResource; decide-policy intercepts
feedthemonkey:{next,previous,open} and all external links
Epic 6 — Read state
- Api::mark_read() / mark_unread() via edit-tag endpoint
- Optimistic unread toggle on ArticleObject; background API calls;
mark_unread_guard prevents re-marking on navigation
- AdwToast shown on mark-unread
Epic 7 — Keyboard shortcuts
- GtkShortcutController on window for all shortcuts from the backlog
- shortcuts.blp: AdwShortcutsWindow documenting all shortcuts
- F1 opens shortcuts dialog; Ctrl+W closes window; Ctrl+Q quits
Epic 8 — Zoom
- zoom_in/zoom_out/zoom_reset wired to Ctrl+±/0; zoom level saved to
and restored from GSettings zoom-level key
Epic 9 — Window state persistence
- Window width/height/maximized saved on close, restored on open
- (Sidebar width deferred — AdwNavigationSplitView fraction binding)
Epic 10 — Polish
- AdwAboutDialog with app name, version, GPL-3.0, website
- Logout confirmation AdwAlertDialog with destructive button
- Win.toggle-fullscreen action (F11)
- Api dropped on window close to cancel in-flight requests
Add the full Rust + GTK4 + libadwaita project skeleton:
- Cargo.toml with all dependencies (gtk4 0.11, libadwaita 0.9,
webkit6 0.6, reqwest, serde, tokio, libsecret)
- build.rs that compiles Blueprint .blp files and bundles a GResource
- data/ui/window.blp — AdwApplicationWindow with AdwNavigationSplitView,
sidebar with refresh button/spinner and primary menu,
content page with article menu
- data/resources.gresource.xml bundling UI, HTML, and CSS
- data/net.jeena.FeedTheMonkey.gschema.xml with all GSettings keys
- html/content.html and html/content.css (minimal placeholders)
- src/main.rs, src/app.rs — AdwApplication with APP_ID net.jeena.FeedTheMonkey
- src/window.rs — AdwApplicationWindow GObject subclass loading the
Blueprint template and persisting window size in GSettings
- COPYING (GPL-3.0) restored from master
The app compiles and the binary is ready to open a blank window.
The colors are now closer to the Adwaita-dark mode which I'm using as
my primary theme. The header has been redesigned slightly to appear
more consistent with other default apps too.
For some reason the JS never got loaded when it was in it's own
file, therefor I moved it into the HTML where it gets called.
Also when a session id on the server was expired or something, you
weren't able to log out, there is now code which fixes that.
For some reason in the latest Qt versions the webview took over the
focus from the keyboard, once clicked on the webview the arrow
keys wouldn't register up and thus you couldn't navigate with them
anymore.
This patch fixes this problem by using window.location.href and
checkinf for those special urls. This is way easier to use than
WebChannels.
