Extension for Deep Links on Android (Solved with example)

Tembac · March 5, 2018, 6:24pm

Hi Everyone,

Example of the solution: https://github.com/Tembac/DeepLinkingHaxeflixelExample#deeplinkinghaxeflixelexample

I’m trying to make an extension to use deep linking on Android: https://developer.android.com/training/app-links/deep-linking.html

I’m using HaxeFlixel so my openfl is 3.6.1 and lime 2.9.1

I’m setting up the manifest of the extension like this, as instructed on the previous link:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" package="org.haxe.extension.deeplinking" >

	<application android:debuggable="::DEBUG::">
		<activity android:name="org.haxe.extension.deeplinking.linkActivity">
			<intent-filter>
				<action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" />
				<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
				<category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />
				<data android:scheme="http"
					  android:host="tembac.com"
					  android:pathPrefix="/breed" />
				<data android:scheme="http"
					  android:host="www.tembac.com"
					  android:pathPrefix="/breed" />
			</intent-filter>
		</activity>
	</application>

</manifest>

But I have the following error and the app is not loading on Android.

03-05 15:10:00.970 789 9734 W BroadcastQueue: Background execution not allowed: receiving Intent { act=android.intent.action.PACKAGE_REMOVED dat=package:com.tembac.bichitosMaker flg=0x4000010 (has extras) } to com.android.musicfx/.Compatibility$Receiver

Someone has any clue of what can be missing?

Does this help?

Tembac · March 6, 2018, 6:44pm

Thanks but It didn’t help. It seem that it was an error with the JNI code.

Now I’m getting this error:

03-06 15:38:08.942 15670 15691 I trace   : DeepLinking.hx:25: deep linking error: JNI Exception

This is haxe code:

package;

#if cpp
import cpp.Lib;
#elseif neko
import neko.Lib;
#end

#if (android && openfl)
import openfl.utils.JNI;
#end


class DeepLinking {

	#if android

	public static var getLinkedUrl(default,null) : Void->String = function():String { return "nada"; }

	public static function init()

		try {
			getLinkedUrl = JNI.createStaticMethod("com.deeplink.DeepLinking", "getLinkedUrl", "()Ljava/lang/String");
		} catch(e:Dynamic) {
			trace("deep linking error: "+e);
		}
	}
	#end


}

and java code:


package com.deeplink;


import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.res.AssetManager;
import android.content.Context;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.os.Handler;
import android.view.View;
import org.haxe.extension.Extension;


public class DeepLinking extends Extension {

	private static String urlLinked = "no link yet.";

	/**
	 * Called after {@link #onCreate} &mdash; or after {@link #onRestart} when
	 * the activity had been stopped, but is now again being displayed to the
	 * user.
	 */
	public void onStart () {

		// setContentView(R.layout.main);
		// setContentView(Extension.mainActivity.getWindow().getAttributes())

		// Intent intent = Extension.mainActivity.getIntent();
		// String action = intent.getAction();
		// // Uri data = intent.getData();
		// urlLinked = intent.getDataString();

	}

	public static String getLinkedUrl () {

		return urlLinked;

	}

}

Found that the problem was on the haxe code. Type on JNI was missing a ;

getLinkedUrl = JNI.createStaticMethod(“com.deeplink.DeepLinking”, “getLinkedUrl”, “()Ljava/lang/String;”);

Now is crashing when it receives a Deep Link:

I think something is wrong with my java code but I’m sure what.

package org.haxe.extension;


import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.res.AssetManager;
import android.content.Context;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.os.Handler;
import android.view.View;
import org.haxe.extension.Extension;
import android.net.Uri;


public class DeepLinking extends Extension {

	private static String urlLinked = "no link yet.";
	
	public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
		
		Extension.callbackHandler.post(new Runnable() {
			@Override public void run() {
				//setContentView(Extension.mainView);

				// Get the intent set on this activity
				Intent intent = Extension.mainActivity.getIntent();

				// Get the uri from the intent
				Uri uri = intent.getData();

				// Do not continue if the uri does not exist
				if (uri == null) {
					return;
				}
				
				final String dataString = intent.getDataString();
				if(dataString == null)
				{
					urlLinked = dataString;
				}
			}
		});
    }



	
	public static String linkedUrl () {

		return urlLinked;

	}



}

Or maybe the problem is on the manifest:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" package="org.haxe.extension.extension" >

	<application>
		<activity android:name=".mainActivity"
			android:launchMode="singleTask">
			<intent-filter>
				<action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" />
				<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
				<category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />
				<data android:scheme="http"
					  android:host="tembac.com"
					  android:pathPrefix="/breed" />
				<data android:scheme="http"
					  android:host="www.tembac.com"
					  android:pathPrefix="/breed" />
			</intent-filter>
		</activity>
	</application>

</manifest>

singmajesty · March 7, 2018, 8:41pm

is “org.haxe.extension.deeplinking” the correct class name?

Tembac · March 7, 2018, 9:20pm

Maybe I’m confused but I think this can’t be done with extensions.

As the manifest says, I need an activity when a link is pressed to handle it. But the Extension is not an activity so Android cannot find the activity to handle the incoming link.

I need some way to reference the main activity from the extension Manifest.

player_03 · March 7, 2018, 9:56pm

Try capitalizing it, to match the declaration. I forget if it wants a fully-qualified package name, but in case it does, try “::APP_PACKAGE::.MainActivity”.

Tembac · March 7, 2018, 10:10pm

Thanks but If I do this on the Manifest it gets an error when it tries to merge them.

player_03 · March 7, 2018, 10:28pm

I’m pretty sure that means you are creating your own separate activity.

But now that I look at it, I think Joshua was on to something. Why is it looking for a class named deeplinking rather than DeepLinking? I don’t see either of those in your manifest file, so… are you sending a deep link that has a lowercase class name?

Tembac · March 7, 2018, 10:55pm

That was a mistake I had before but I fixed it and it is still crashing when I open a link using the app. Since my last post I changed the package of the extension but it still crashing.

The extension crashes when I try to open a link with the app. It works fine when is executed.

Yeah, LinkActivity isn’t an Activity. You’ll need two separate classes here: one that extends Extension and another that extends Activity.

Is there a way to extend the MainActivity ?

I tried with

import ::APP_PACKAGE::

.MainActivity; but it is not working.

player_03 · March 8, 2018, 8:29pm

I looked up Google’s tutorial, and there’s a significant difference between their code and yours: they don’t have the line “setContentView(Extension.mainView).” (Nor do they have anything similar.)

And that’s the line that’s causing your error. Why not try deleting it?

Tembac · March 9, 2018, 1:36am

I’m following this guide. What guide are you looking?

https://developer.android.com/training/app-links/deep-linking.html

If I take that line out it doesn’t crash but it only shows a black screen with the app title on the top.

player_03 · March 9, 2018, 8:46am

Huh… I must not have been looking closely enough.

I maintain that you don’t need that line. Not in a class that extends Extension, at least. Lime handles that, and you shouldn’t need to do it again.

Try commenting out lines to pinpoint what’s causing the black screen. It can’t be the lack of setContentView(), because Extension.onCreate() lacks that too, and that didn’t cause any issues.

Sorry that I took so long to get back to this. I did a workaround for the GDC build for this feature but now I will need to implement it. I’m really close.

This is the game we are making if you are curious: https://www.facebook.com/groups/2036709699921980/

The game is recognizing the link and it opens the app when clicked. But it stays on this activity that is blank. If I open the game again, it read the text from the link fine.

So what I need to do is to open and show the GameActivity from my LinkActivity. I’m looking for solutions with no luck so far. I hope someone with more native knowledge can help.

The link activity code is:

package com.deeplink;


import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.res.AssetManager;
import android.content.Context;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.os.Handler;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.ViewGroup;
import org.haxe.extension.Extension;
import android.net.Uri;
import android.util.Log;

public class LinkActivity extends Activity{

	private static String urlLinked = "no link yet.";

	@Override
 protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

				// Get the intent set on this activity
				Intent intent = getIntent();

				// Get the uri from the intent
				Uri uri = intent.getData();

				// Do not continue if the uri does not exist
				if (uri == null) {
					return;
				}

				final String dataString = intent.getDataString();
				if(dataString != null)
				{
					urlLinked = dataString;
				}
				Log.d("FuncaLink", "link: " + urlLinked);

    }

	public static String linkedUrl () {

		return urlLinked;

	}

}

I’m triying to start the new activity like this but it can’t find the main activity package.

package com.deeplink;


import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.res.AssetManager;
import android.content.Context;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.os.Handler;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.ViewGroup;
import org.haxe.extension.Extension;
import ::APP_PACKAGE::.MainActivity;
import android.net.Uri;
import android.util.Log;

public class LinkActivity extends Activity{

	private static String urlLinked = "no link yet.";

	@Override
 protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

				// Get the intent set on this activity
				Intent intent = getIntent();

				// Get the uri from the intent
				Uri uri = intent.getData();

				// Do not continue if the uri does not exist
				if (uri == null) {
					return;
				}

				final String dataString = intent.getDataString();
				if(dataString != null)
				{
					urlLinked = dataString;
				}
				Log.d("FuncaLink", "link: " + urlLinked);

				//intenta ejecutar la actividad del juego
				Intent intentNewActivity = new Intent(Extension.mainContext, MainActivity.class);
				startActivity(intentNewActivity);

    }

	public static String linkedUrl () {

		return urlLinked;

	}

}

Finally I got it working thanks to this post: Android - Activity and Application

So what I did was a new template with a modified main activity and manifest:

package ::APP_PACKAGE::;

import android.os.Bundle;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.net.Uri;
import android.util.Log;

public class MainActivity extends org.haxe.lime.GameActivity {

    private static String urlLinked = "no link yet.";

     @Override
     protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
         super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

         handleIntent();
     }

     @Override
     protected void onNewIntent(Intent intent) {
         super.onNewIntent(intent);

         // Override previous intent
         setIntent(intent);

         // Handle new intent
         handleIntent();
     }

     /**
      * Entry point for handling the activity's intent
      */
     private void handleIntent() {
         // Get the intent set on this activity
         Intent intent = getIntent();

         final String dataString = intent.getDataString();
         if(dataString != null)
         {
           urlLinked = dataString;
         }
         Log.d("FuncaLink", "link: " + urlLinked);

     }

     public static String linkedUrl () {

       return urlLinked;

    }

}

Manifest:

A problem is still present

It only works if the app is closed.
