TEAM UPDATES

(Alphabetical order)

Gaia Architecture Work

  • Telemetry library (6/9)

-Collection of the hud.js metrics and consolidation into histograms in gaia -API for app developers to send metrics -Metrics to be sent to the telemetry server. -Looking to use python playbooks to extract the data from the telemetry server as we have separate sections in the payload for gaia histograms and data.

  • Web app bridge

- Drilling into platform performance issues https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1164539#c17

  • Service workers

- Finished work on app:// protocol supported. Basic interception to perform tests. - Improvements to the url matching algorithm. - New way of executing the middleware cascade, allows more control over when finishing a request. - Test on pure offline mode.

  • SMS app conversion:
 - work on first services handled by threads.js library (renamed to bridge.js in the SMS app) (bug 1168441)
 - landed a rough spec containing our services description (bug 1169543)
 - some preliminary work with Service Workers
 - some preliminary work with navigation working with both separated document and views-in-one-document (so that we can have a smooth transition)
 - first separated view: inbox (bug 1162027); next one (conversation) due this week (bug 1162028).
 - created a meta: bug 1172906
 
  • Music app conversion
  • Contacts app conversion

- ContactsService is now landed in Gaia, and the patch for applying Threads.js to Contacts is under feedback review process. - We are decoupling the code from 'contacts.js', getting rid of any inter-dependency between views. - Cache.js will be landed out of 'bootstrap.js', so more readable code in Contacts! Next step: RenderCache.
