904004 - [Single Variant] Manage custom single variant apps

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Firefox OS Graveyard :: Gaia::System, defect)

Description

[Albert [:albert]]

Create JSON parser for single variant applications at built time.

Given the JSON defined in bug 899079 that defines the custom applications for some operators depending on the MCC / MNC, create a parser able to:

- For each application download the minimanifest.
- Check if the application is stored in the distribution folder.
- If download fails, use the stored application.
- If it is stored, check if remote manifest has changed. If so, download again the application, else use the stored one.
- If the application is not stored, download it.

I suppose this script is based on preload.py?

Looks good for me if issues I mentioned on github are fixed.

good job Albert! it comes more clear than preload.py! :-)

Thanks yuren.

I updated the patch because the installOrigin for hosted apps was taken from the manifestURL, but it can be different. Now, for hosted apps, is mandatory to include it in the JSON config file.
