My 1st Ever Script :) I feel like a Genius Lol
My 1st Ever Script 🙂 I feel like a Genius Lol
How it works: run it from a shortcut,
What it does: You type something in the box tap save and its gets written to a text file on your Internal Storage and any other notes you write will then get appended to that file.
To Do
# Add Text Color Options Somehow.
# Check If Text Is Longer than a certain number of characters before allowing the save button to work, to avoid blank notes being made.
#Make The View Note button open The Note File directly, or make A custom view to display them or whatevers easier for me to do.
Thanks to Lutz Linke​ For recommending a kick ass Code Editor
Lukas Morawietz​ For His Animations Script and Multi Tool Script which I referred to a lot while writing this.
TrianguloY​ For His Case Change Script which inspired me to try writing my own script.
Pierre Hébert​ For Lightning Launcher, Scripting and His Sample Code Showing how to use the Android Framework through Script.
And anybody who trys running this. If you want to improve it / finish it off feel free but it would be great if you could add some noob proof comments in your code so I can learn from it cheers.
WARNING! Don’t save sensitive info (Phone #s, Passwords etc I have no idea how secure this is but I’m guessing not very);

Its probably a mess but theres my code. enjoy.

< ![CDATA[
Not a mess. I would structure it a bit different, but thats dev’s choice. I also wouldn’t call something adb, because adb is the android debug bridge to me.
Anyway, what you need is a input-/outputstream to a file (i have used both in my multitool script. however it’s maybe a bit long to search trough. Tip: its used for import/export scripts).

< ![CDATA[
How would you structure it? Any tips to help me learns much appreciated. If you mean with spacing between blocks of code it did have loads but i removed them all before i pasted it here. Yeah I no adb is a bad word choice but it was just easier for me to remember and I don’t have the skills to write anything that uses ADB anyway 🙂
I’ll have a look at that script later cheers.

< ![CDATA[
Spacing is one part. I consider it to be useful for structuring. But my structure is something I wouldn’t teach anyone, because I think it’s your personal style. It doesn’t give any performance improvements, it’s just your footprint, and it’s good if it’s different to mine or anyone else’s.
It’s always better to tell someone what to use but not how. Otherwise he’ll have the same footprint as me.
Getting philosophical now, I better stop here 😄.

I have the multi tool script up and I’m making progress, but very slowly, I have a directory created and a text file written to it so I’m getting somewhere 🙂 im glad you put loads of comments in your code makes it easier for me to read even though I don’t understand a lot of it. Lol

Updated its now possible to write to a text file and any new notes get added to the bottom of the last note and are split with a # character. So its easier to Use The Information in the file in Tasker.

I did about 2 month ago some kind of APIs to be able to use basic things (like writing to a file, showing an alertdialog (and a pregress dialog, infodialog, etc)) in a few lines, with default (and customizable) behavior for everything… Maybe if you’re interested I can work again on it!
