My Cyfix GUI proposal
Posted by Secretss at 8:15 PM in Uncategorized | Add comments
Finally!
Here is draft 3 of my idea for a Cyfix GUI. (Click here for what Cyfix is.) It would be epically awesome if someone could step up and do this! This is an even bigger and cooler project than writing the script itself!
Important details:
- The app needs run as root user. It should also check if the necessary tools are present: Erica Utilities, gawk, grep, and gettext. wget would not be needed as the app could be updated via Cydia.
- Whenever the Cyfix GUI app is launched, there should be a popup prompting the user to make sure that Cydia is not running in the background or on any other ground.
- The (i) button in the Cyfix header bar goes to the 4th panel showing the information and credits.
- When the user has entered the magic word to proceed with removing default repositories, the warning + text field + button should fade away and be replaced with the list of repositories, as shown in the 2nd panel.
- If the Remove button is tapped without any selection, there should be a popup saying so.
- When removing repositories, a terminal log like Cydia’s would be pretty cool in my opinion, but that’s just my opinion
. When removal is complete, the Respring or Reload Sources button should then appear. - The information screen is pretty self-explanatory. The troubleshoot paragraph may or may not be needed; it is for the app developer to decide. I suggest directing our contact links to our Twitter, but of course this is all negotiable. The last two toggles are also pretty self-explanatory.
Would anyone like to make one pretty please?
The source code for the script (version 1.6.6) is here.
With lots of love,
Secretss
