In-App Updates Implementation Plan
For agentic workers: REQUIRED SUB-SKILL: Use superpowers:subagent-driven-development (recommended) or superpowers:executing-plans to implement this plan task-by-task. Steps use checkbox (
- [ ]) syntax for tracking.
Goal: KwabaTV checks its public Gitea repo for a newer release on every launch and, with explicit user confirmation, downloads and installs it via Android's own system package installer.
Architecture: Fully self-contained in the kwabatv repo — no kwaba-sync server involvement, since GGB/KwabaTV is a public Gitea repo and its releases API needs no authentication. A pure, unit-tested version-comparison core (UpdateChecker) is wrapped by a real network fetch, then wired into MainActivity via a native AlertDialog and Android's DownloadManager + system package installer.
Tech Stack: Kotlin, Android base SDK only (org.json, java.net.HttpURLConnection, android.app.DownloadManager — no new runtime dependencies), JUnit4 + org.json:json as test-only dependencies for local unit tests.
Global Constraints
- No AndroidX dependencies — matches the project's existing zero-dependency, WebView-only design (see
docs/superpowers/specs/2026-09-27-in-app-updates-design.md). This is why the plan usesDownloadManagerinstead of a customFileProvider. - Release tag convention:
vX.Y.Z(e.g.v1.1.0). APK asset name is always exactlyKwabaTV.apk. - Never install silently — Android's system package installer always requires an explicit user tap, by OS design. Nothing in this plan attempts to bypass that.
- Update-check failures (network unreachable, malformed JSON, no qualifying release) are always silent — no error dialog, no toast. Just try again next launch.
JAVA_HOMEfor every Gradle command in this plan:/c/Users/GGB/jdks/jdk-21.0.12.1+1(Gradle 8.7 does not run on JDK 25, which is what Android Studio's bundled JBR ships).- Build/install verification throughout uses the existing project pattern:
cd /c/Projekte/kwabatv && JAVA_HOME="/c/Users/GGB/jdks/jdk-21.0.12.1+1" ./gradlew.bat <task>.
Task 1: Pure version-comparison logic, fully unit-tested
Files:
- Modify:
app/build.gradle.kts(add adependenciesblock — none exists yet) - Create:
app/src/main/java/de/ggb/kwabatv/UpdateChecker.kt - Create:
app/src/test/java/de/ggb/kwabatv/UpdateCheckerTest.kt(new source set —src/test/javadoesn't exist yet in this project, Gradle picks it up automatically once it exists alongside a test dependency)
Interfaces:
-
Produces:
data class UpdateInfo(val version: String, val apkDownloadUrl: String)— top-level inUpdateChecker.kt, packagede.ggb.kwabatv(no import needed fromMainActivity.kt, same package). -
Produces:
object UpdateCheckerwithfun parseVersion(version: String): List<Int>?,fun compareVersions(a: List<Int>, b: List<Int>): Int,fun pickUpdate(releasesJson: String, currentVersion: String): UpdateInfo?. Task 2 adds a fourth function,checkForUpdate, to this same object. -
Step 1: Add test dependencies to
app/build.gradle.kts
Current file ends with:
kotlinOptions {
jvmTarget = "1.8"
}
}
Add a dependencies block directly after the closing } of the android { ... } block (i.e. at the very end of the file):
kotlinOptions {
jvmTarget = "1.8"
}
}
dependencies {
testImplementation("junit:junit:4.13.2")
// Android's org.json classes are stubbed out (throw at runtime) in plain JVM unit
// tests unless a real implementation is on the test classpath - this is that
// implementation, test-only, never shipped in the APK.
testImplementation("org.json:json:20231013")
}
- Step 2: Create
UpdateChecker.ktwith stub implementations (so the test file below compiles, but fails on assertions)
Create app/src/main/java/de/ggb/kwabatv/UpdateChecker.kt:
package de.ggb.kwabatv
/** A qualifying update found on Gitea: display version and the APK's direct download URL. */
data class UpdateInfo(val version: String, val apkDownloadUrl: String)
/**
* Checks the public KwabaTV Gitea repo for a newer release. Fully self-contained - no
* kwaba-sync server involvement, since GGB/KwabaTV is a public repo and its releases API
* needs no authentication. See docs/superpowers/specs/2026-09-27-in-app-updates-design.md.
*/
object UpdateChecker {
fun parseVersion(version: String): List<Int>? = null
fun compareVersions(a: List<Int>, b: List<Int>): Int = 0
fun pickUpdate(releasesJson: String, currentVersion: String): UpdateInfo? = null
}
- Step 3: Write the test file
Create app/src/test/java/de/ggb/kwabatv/UpdateCheckerTest.kt:
package de.ggb.kwabatv

- Step 4: Run the tests and verify they fail
Run: cd /c/Projekte/kwabatv && JAVA_HOME="/c/Users/GGB/jdks/jdk-21.0.12.1+1" ./gradlew.bat testDebugUnitTest --tests "de.ggb.kwabatv.UpdateCheckerTest"
Expected: build reaches the test task and reports FAILED, with most of the 13 tests failing (the stubs return null/0 unconditionally, so any test expecting a real value fails). This confirms the tests actually exercise UpdateChecker rather than trivially passing.
- Step 5: Replace the stub with the real implementation
Replace the full contents of app/src/main/java/de/ggb/kwabatv/UpdateChecker.kt with:
package de.ggb.kwabatv
import org.json.JSONArray
/** A qualifying update found on Gitea: display version and the APK's direct download URL. */
data class UpdateInfo(val version: String, val apkDownloadUrl: String)
/**
* Checks the public KwabaTV Gitea repo for a newer release. Fully self-contained - no
* kwaba-sync server involvement, since GGB/KwabaTV is a public repo and its releases API
* needs no authentication. See docs/superpowers/specs/2026-09-27-in-app-updates-design.md.
*/
object UpdateChecker {
private const val RELEASES_API_URL = "https://git.whodovoodoo.de/api/v1/repos/GGB/KwabaTV/releases"
private const val DOWNLOAD_BASE_URL = "https://git.whodovoodoo.de/GGB/KwabaTV/releases/download"
private const val ASSET_NAME = "KwabaTV.apk"
private val VERSION_RE = Regex("""^(\d+)\.(\d+)\.(\d+)$""")
/** Parses a bare "X.Y.Z" version string (no "v" prefix) into [major, minor, patch], or null if malformed. */
fun parseVersion(version: String): List<Int>? {
val m = VERSION_RE.matchEntire(version) ?: return null
return m.groupValues.drop(1).map { it.toInt() }

* "KwabaTV.apk" asset. Returns null if none qualify or the JSON is malformed. The download
* URL is built manually from tag + asset name (same approach as kwaba-sync's own
* src/desktop-release.js) rather than trusting the API response's browser_download_url.
*/
fun pickUpdate(releasesJson: String, currentVersion: String): UpdateInfo? {
val current = parseVersion(currentVersion) ?: return null
val releases = try { JSONArray(releasesJson) } catch (e: Exception) { return null }
var best: Pair<List<Int>, UpdateInfo>? = null
for (i in 0 until releases.length()) {
val release = releases.optJSONObject(i) ?: continue
if (release.optBoolean("draft", false) || release.optBoolean("prerelease", false)) continue
val tag = release.optString("tag_name", "")
if (!tag.startsWith("v")) continue
val version = parseVersion(tag.substring(1)) ?: continue
if (compareVersions(version, current) <= 0) continue
val assets = release.optJSONArray("assets") ?: continue
var hasApk = false
for (j in 0 until assets.length()) {
if (assets.optJSONObject(j)?.optString("name") == ASSET_NAME) { hasApk = true; break }
}
if (!hasApk) continue
if (best == null || compareVersions(version, best!!.first) > 0) {
best = version to UpdateInfo(version.joinToString("."), "$DOWNLOAD_BASE_URL/$tag/$ASSET_NAME")
}
}
return best?.second
}
}
- Step 6: Run the tests and verify they pass
Run: cd /c/Projekte/kwabatv && JAVA_HOME="/c/Users/GGB/jdks/jdk-21.0.12.1+1" ./gradlew.bat testDebugUnitTest --tests "de.ggb.kwabatv.UpdateCheckerTest"
Expected: BUILD SUCCESSFUL, all 13 tests pass.
- Step 7: Commit
cd /c/Projekte/kwabatv
git add app/build.gradle.kts app/src/main/java/de/ggb/kwabatv/UpdateChecker.kt app/src/test/java/de/ggb/kwabatv/UpdateCheckerTest.kt
git commit -m "Add unit-tested update-version comparison logic"
Task 2: Real network fetch + version bump
Files:
- Modify:
app/src/main/java/de/ggb/kwabatv/UpdateChecker.kt(append one function to theobject UpdateCheckerfrom Task 1) - Modify:
app/build.gradle.kts:14-15(version bump)
Interfaces:
-
Consumes:
UpdateChecker.pickUpdate(releasesJson: String, currentVersion: String): UpdateInfo?(Task 1). -
Produces:
UpdateChecker.checkForUpdate(currentVersion: String): UpdateInfo?— does a real network call, returns null on any failure. Task 3'sMainActivitycalls this directly. -
Step 1: Confirm the real Gitea API response shape matches what
pickUpdateexpects
Run: curl -s "https://git.whodovoodoo.de/api/v1/repos/GGB/KwabaTV/releases" | head -c 1000
Expected: a JSON array (possibly empty, [], if no releases are published yet — that's fine, it just means checkForUpdate will correctly return null against real data). If any releases exist, confirm each object has tag_name, draft, prerelease, and assets (an array of objects with name) — these are the exact fields pickUpdate reads. No code changes in this step, just verification against the live API before wiring up the caller.
- Step 2: Add
checkForUpdatetoUpdateChecker.kt
Add these imports to the top of app/src/main/java/de/ggb/kwabatv/UpdateChecker.kt (after import org.json.JSONArray):
import java.net.HttpURLConnection
import java.net.URL
Add this function inside object UpdateChecker { ... }, after pickUpdate:
/**
* Fetches the releases list and returns the newest qualifying update, or null - including
* on any failure (network unreachable, non-200 response, malformed body). An update check
* is a nice-to-have; it must never be able to crash or visibly disrupt normal app use.
*/
fun checkForUpdate(currentVersion: String): UpdateInfo? {
return try {
val connection = URL(RELEASES_API_URL).openConnection() as HttpURLConnection
connection.connectTimeout = 8000
connection.readTimeout = 8000
connection.requestMethod = "GET"
connection.setRequestProperty("Accept", "application/json")
if (connection.responseCode != 200) return null
val body = connection.inputStream.bufferedReader().use { it.readText() }
pickUpdate(body, currentVersion)
} catch (e: Exception) {
null
}
}
- Step 3: Bump the app version
In app/build.gradle.kts, current lines 14-15:
versionCode = 1
versionName = "1.0"
Replace with:
versionCode = 2
versionName = "1.1.0"
- Step 4: Verify the project still builds
Run: cd /c/Projekte/kwabatv && JAVA_HOME="/c/Users/GGB/jdks/jdk-21.0.12.1+1" ./gradlew.bat assembleDebug
Expected: BUILD SUCCESSFUL. This confirms checkForUpdate compiles correctly against the real HttpURLConnection/URL APIs — it isn't unit-tested (real network I/O), so this compile check plus Task 3's real-device test are its verification.
- Step 5: Commit
cd /c/Projekte/kwabatv
git add app/src/main/java/de/ggb/kwabatv/UpdateChecker.kt app/build.gradle.kts
git commit -m "Add real Gitea release fetch; bump version to 1.1.0"
Task 3: Wire into MainActivity — dialog, permission gate, download, install
Files:
- Modify:
app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml:4(new permission) - Modify:
app/src/main/java/de/ggb/kwabatv/MainActivity.kt(imports, new fields,onCreate/onDestroychanges, new private methods)
Interfaces:
-
Consumes:
UpdateChecker.checkForUpdate(currentVersion: String): UpdateInfo?(Task 2),UpdateInfo(version: String, apkDownloadUrl: String)(Task 1). -
Step 1: Add the install-packages permission
In app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml, current line 4:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
Add directly after it:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.REQUEST_INSTALL_PACKAGES" />
- Step 2: Add new imports to
MainActivity.kt
Current imports:
import android.app.Activity
import android.net.Uri
import android.os.Bundle
import android.os.SystemClock
import android.view.KeyEvent
import android.view.View
import android.webkit.PermissionRequest
import android.webkit.WebChromeClient
import android.webkit.WebView
import android.webkit.WebViewClient
Replace with:
import android.app.Activity
import android.app.AlertDialog
import android.app.DownloadManager
import android.content.BroadcastReceiver
import android.content.Context
import android.content.Intent
import android.content.IntentFilter
import android.net.Uri
import android.os.Build
import android.os.Bundle
import android.os.SystemClock
import android.provider.Settings
import android.view.KeyEvent
import android.view.View
import android.webkit.PermissionRequest
import android.webkit.WebChromeClient
import android.webkit.WebView
import android.webkit.WebViewClient
- Step 3: Add new fields
Current field declarations:
private lateinit var webView: WebView
private var fullscreenView: View? = null
private var currentPath: String = "/tv"
private var lastThrottledSeekAt = 0L
Replace with:
private lateinit var webView: WebView
private var fullscreenView: View? = null
private var currentPath: String = "/tv"
private var lastThrottledSeekAt = 0L
private var pendingDownloadId: Long = -1
private var receiverRegistered = false
- Step 4: Trigger the update check from
onCreate
Current end of onCreate:
webView.loadUrl(BuildConfig.WEBSITE_URL)
}
Replace with:
webView.loadUrl(BuildConfig.WEBSITE_URL)
checkForUpdateInBackground()
}
- Step 5: Clean up the download receiver in
onDestroy
Current:
override fun onDestroy() {
webView.destroy()
super.onDestroy()
}
Replace with:
override fun onDestroy() {
webView.destroy()
if (receiverRegistered) { unregisterReceiver(downloadReceiver); receiverRegistered = false }
super.onDestroy()
}
- Step 6: Add the update flow methods
Add this block right after onDestroy() (before private fun isRoomList()...):
/* ---------------------------------------------------------- In-App-Update

Release (siehe UpdateChecker.kt) und bietet es ueber Androids eigenen

lautlos: kein Fehlerdialog, einfach beim naechsten Start erneut versuchen. */
private fun checkForUpdateInBackground() {
Thread {
val update = UpdateChecker.checkForUpdate(BuildConfig.VERSION_NAME)
if (update != null) runOnUiThread { showUpdateDialog(update) }
}.start()
}
private fun showUpdateDialog(update: UpdateInfo) {

- Step 7: Verify the project builds
Run: cd /c/Projekte/kwabatv && JAVA_HOME="/c/Users/GGB/jdks/jdk-21.0.12.1+1" ./gradlew.bat assembleDebug
Expected: BUILD SUCCESSFUL.
- Step 8: Commit
cd /c/Projekte/kwabatv
git add app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml app/src/main/java/de/ggb/kwabatv/MainActivity.kt
git commit -m "Wire update check into MainActivity: dialog, download, install"
- Step 9: Publish a real test release on the KwabaTV Gitea repo
This step requires the current app-debug.apk (built in Step 7) to be renamed KwabaTV.apk and attached to a real Gitea release tagged one version below what's about to be tested, so the installed app is older than the published release and the update check has something real to find.
-
Install the just-built APK (still
versionName "1.1.0") normally first viaadb install -r, confirm it runs. -
Temporarily edit
app/build.gradle.ktstoversionName = "1.0.0"(simulating "an older version is installed"), rebuild (assembleDebug), install that older-numbered build viaadb install -rso the device's installed version is genuinely older than the release you're about to publish. -
Revert
app/build.gradle.ktsback toversionName = "1.1.0"(do not commit the temporary1.0.0edit). -
Rebuild (
assembleDebug), rename the resulting APK toKwabaTV.apk, and publish it as a Gitea release onGGB/KwabaTVtaggedv1.1.0(via the Gitea web UI: Releases → New Release → tagv1.1.0, attachKwabaTV.apk, publish — not a draft, not a prerelease). -
Step 10: Verify the full flow on the real Fire TV Stick
-
Relaunch the app on-device (already showing
1.0.0per the previous step). Confirm theAlertDialogappears: "KwabaTV v1.1.0 ist verfügbar." -
Press "Aktualisieren". First time through, expect Android to redirect to the "install unknown apps" settings screen for KwabaTV (unless already granted from earlier sideloading in this project) — grant it, return to the app, press "Aktualisieren" again.
-
Confirm
DownloadManager's notification shows the download progressing, then Android's own package installer screen appears automatically once it completes. -
Tap "Install" in the system installer. Confirm the app updates in place and relaunches showing
versionName 1.1.0. -
Relaunch the app once more with no newer release published: confirm no dialog appears (already current).
Self-Review Notes
- Spec coverage: release convention (Task 1/2), version bump (Task 2), background check on launch (Task 3 Step 4), native
AlertDialogwith DPAD-navigable buttons (Task 3, uses Android's default focusable dialog buttons — no custom styling needed),DownloadManager-based download avoiding AndroidX (Task 3), permission gate +ACTION_MANAGE_UNKNOWN_APP_SOURCESredirect (Task 3), silent error handling throughout (Task 1-2'scheckForUpdate/pickUpdate, Task 3's receiver), real-device end-to-end verification (Task 3 Steps 9-10). All covered. - Placeholder scan: none found — every step has complete, concrete code or an exact command.
- Type consistency:
UpdateInfo(version, apkDownloadUrl)used identically in Task 1 (definition + tests), Task 2 (checkForUpdatereturn type), Task 3 (showUpdateDialog/startUpdateparameter).UpdateChecker.checkForUpdate(currentVersion: String): UpdateInfo?signature matches between Task 2's definition and Task 3's call site (UpdateChecker.checkForUpdate(BuildConfig.VERSION_NAME)).
