* Before the name was `kiwix-3.13.0.apk` for the release APK(with app id org.kiwix.kiwixmobile app id) we were uploading on the website. But now, we are uploading the standalone APK on the website(with org.kiwix.kiwixmobile.standalone app id) it is a breaking change, and users are not aware of it. So we are changing the APK name so that users can understand this change.
* Renamed the nightly APK since there also we are uploading the standalone APK.
* Made `LAST_DATE` and `BASE_VERSION_CODE` constants, as these values are crucial for our app and should not be changed. We have marked them as constants and added comments to ensure they remain unchanged.
* To generate the APK for a specific date, set the "RELEASE_DATE" environment variable in the format `YYYY-MM-DD`. The APK will be generated for the specified date. If the variable is not set, the APK will be generated for the current date.
* Upgraded the `kotlin_coroutines` dependency to `1.10.1`.
* Upgraded the `espresso` dependency to `3.6.1`.
* Upgraded the `tracing` dependency to `1.2.0`.
* Upgraded the `espresso` dependency to `3.6.1`.
* Upgraded the `material` dependency to `1.12.0`.
* Upgraded the `webkit` dependency to `1.12.1`.
* Upgraded the `room` dependency to `2.6.1`.
* Upgraded the ksp version to `2.0.0-1.0.24`.
* Upgraded the kotlin version to `2.0.0`.
* Upgraded the objectbox version to `4.0.3`.
* Removed the deprecated `runBlockingTest` from test cases which was giving compilation error because it is permanently removed in this version of kotlin.
* Replaced some deprecated methods with new methods that is deprecated in latest version of gradle.
* Fixed some string lint issues.
* Upgraded Fetch to 3.4.1.
* Upgraded Kotlin kotlin-stdlib from JDK7 to JDK8.
* Upgraded Kotlin version to 2.0.0 to support the latest Fetch library.
* Upgraded Dagger to 2.53.1.
* Upgraded ObjectBox to 4.0.3.
* Notification now shows "Pause" and "Resume" buttons instead of "pause" and "resume".
* Fixed: Notification buttons were not working on Android 13 and above.
* Fixed: Downloading was not working in the background. Added a foreground service for Fetch so that downloading will continue in the background.
* Added a head request to get the library length and showing the progress on behalf of that length.
* Improved the library loading process: previously, fetching the online library involved making two requests, which not only took more time to get a response from the server but also used twice the bandwidth. To address this, we have refactored our code to ensure that only one request is made at a time.
* Upgraded the retrofit, and interceptor dependencies to latest version.
* Upgraded the `uiautomator` version to `2.3.0`.
* Upgraded the `appcompat` version to `1.7.0`.
* Upgraded the coroutines version to `1.8.1`.
* Upgraded the `androidx.test:runner` version to `1.6.1`.
* Upgraded the `androidx.test:core` version to `1.6.1`.
* Upgraded the `androidx.test:orchestrator` version to `1.5.0`.
* Upgraded the `io.mockk:mockk` version to `1.13.12`.
* Upgraded the `org.junit.jupiter:junit-jupiter` version to `5.11.0`.
* Upgraded the `org.assertj:assertj-core` version to `3.26.3`.
* Upgraded the `androidx.annotation:annotation` version to `1.6.0`.
* Improved the SearchStateTest.
* Fixed some deprecated code which is deprecated in new dependencies.
* Implemented a method to automatically generate a unique version code by calculating the number of days from the reference date (July 17, 2024) to the current date and adding this value to the base version code (231101) from the last release.
* Added a workflow that automatically generates the bundle and uploads it to internal testing every Monday at 12:00. This workflow will also trigger under the `internal_testing` tag.
* Since we are implementing this, it is necessary to directly release the bundle to internal testing instead of placing it in draft (to eliminate manual steps), so we have refactored our code accordingly.
* The serialization issue was fixed in coroutine version `1.7.0`, so we have upgraded the coroutine dependency to `1.7.0` to address this issue.
* In the new version of coroutines, `ConflatedBroadcastChannel` is replaced with `StateFlow`, so we have refactored our code to use `StateFlow`.
* Fixed some detekt issues which occurs after upgrading this dependency.
* Introduced the splitting zim file with 500MB for custom apps. Since the bundle has a limit for a file to upload it uses the play asset delivery mode, and for new custom apps, playStore does not allow to upload the apk (with apk we can upload more than 1GB file). So to address this issue we have introduced a feature in libzim where we can load the zim files via the fd list.
* We have modified our code to upload the files with 500MB chunks in the asset folder, and later we are accessing these files from the asset folder and creating the archive object with the help of the new libzim feature.
