showALLleaderboards

billydb

Does anyone know if it's possible to show a list of all your games leaderboards in google play for Android? I can load individual leaderboards using the id but I'd really like to avoid having to make a new menu with a scrollable leaderboard list if google has a built in version.

I found this:

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/21993424/list-all-the-leaderboards-in-google-play-game-services

but not sure how to translate that to the gideros gaming plugin.

Thanks

Have you tried passing no parameter at all to Gaming:showLeaderboard()?

billydb

Yeh tried but it crashed

antix

Darn, how about an empty string?

billydb

Found a quick hack. Inside GameGoogleplay.java edit the showLeaderboard method:

public void showLeaderboard(final String id) { if(mHelper != null && mHelper.isSignedIn()) //sActivity.get().startActivityForResult(Games.Leaderboards.getLeaderboardIntent(mHelper.getApiClient(), id), RC_UNUSED); sActivity.get().startActivityForResult(Games.Leaderboards.getAllLeaderboardsIntent(mHelper.getApiClient()), RC_UNUSED); }

Tried to make a duplicate function and then tried to make it conditional on if there's a string or not but it kept crashing and I think I only want to load all leaderboards anyway. Will keep trying but at least you can now access all leaderboards without having to make a separate menu

billydb

oh and using that you still have to include a string or it crashes. I think I'm stuck with it as I can't debug and login.

antix

Hey @billydb, when you try to debug it do you get the whole "app is not configured correctly" dialog when you attempt to login? that's what I receive so I can't debug on device

billydb

yep exactly. I also can't login when doing a signed release apk, just with the signed debug apk, but I think that's deliberate by google. Although hard to say as it's not mentioned anywhere

@antix @billydb I'm not sure if this will help, but I always upload a release version to beta before testing IAB, otherwise you cannot purchase items.

Just an idea.

antix

Thanks simwhi, I can't make this stuff work anyway so I'll never have purchasing anyway ROFLMAO )

simwhi

@antix Are you still using Android Studio? I can help with IAB if you need it.

antix

@simwhi thanks. I tried implementing IAB today and it messed up everything. The project no longer works with gaming plugin now for some unknown reason. I really don't know what the heck I'm doing wrong.

simwhi

@antix I'm sorry to hear that. Everything was starting to come together!!

antix

@simwhi yep it seemed to be

billydb

sorry to here your woes @antix
I'm not using IAB but not suprised it's broken things. And just to be clear, totally not Gideros issue, you guys are great:) It's stinky evil mega corp google. I thought xcode was a pain but it's an absolute dream compared to Android Studio.

In lightner news I finally got a hack working to show all leaderboards or just one:

public void showLeaderboard(final String id) { String temp = "all"; if(mHelper != null && mHelper.isSignedIn()) //sActivity.get().startActivityForResult(Games.Leaderboards.getLeaderboardIntent(mHelper.getApiClient(), id), RC_UNUSED); if (id.equals(temp)) { sActivity.get().startActivityForResult(Games.Leaderboards.getAllLeaderboardsIntent(mHelper.getApiClient()), RC_UNUSED); }else{ sActivity.get().startActivityForResult(Games.Leaderboards.getLeaderboardIntent(mHelper.getApiClient(), id), RC_UNUSED); }   }/pre>     So in Gideros I load all by doing googleplay:showLeaderboard("all")

@billydb,
are you ok if I add your change to github for next release ? I'd rather check for null string instead of "all", since that was your initial thought

antix

Thanks @billydb, at least you are getting somewhere with your stuff, great job

billydb

@hgy29, absolutely. I'm nervous about anyone referencing my code as I code like a butcher performing brain surgery, but feel free
