Module-Rust now withholds who is online below an operator-chosen audience - staff by default (org lead, 2026-09-22: nothing names who is online by default). The Online route answers an empty list with hidden, count and audience; the feed answers presenceHidden and presenceAudience. Before this the app would have rendered the withheld list as "the island is empty" on a full server. Now: * RustOnlineDto and RustEventListDto carry the flags; the repository and view model keep the whole answer instead of its rows. * the Online tab says "2 players online" and who can see the names; the feed says, once above the rows, that joins, deaths and chat are not shown. * an older module without the flags decodes as visible, as before. Walked on an emulator against a core with the module installed: the withheld panel and the feed note as a signed-in player at the staff default, and the names appearing on the next poll after the fleet was widened to signed-in - which also proves the app's bearer session reaches the module's viewer check.

Runic Gateway — Android app
A native Android client for a Runic Gateway shard's public site + player self-service. It is
purely an API client of the website backend — it never talks to the link/ sidecar or the game
shard directly, and it ships none of the shard/sidecar wiring. It surfaces the same content and
player features as the website's browser client, minus every administrative/management console.
The authoritative design contract is docs/android/PLAN.md
in the RunicGateway/docs repo. The authoritative API reference is the committed OpenAPI spec at
website/server/swagger/swagger-output.json.
Status
M0 — repo scaffold. Gradle + Compose + Hilt skeleton with CI (lint + unit test + debug build). The functional Kotlin pass (M1–M4) and the design pass (M5) follow — see the plan's milestones (§9).
Stack
| Concern | Choice |
|---|---|
| Language / UI | Kotlin + Jetpack Compose (Material 3) |
| Navigation | Navigation-Compose, single-activity |
| HTTP | Retrofit + OkHttp, kotlinx.serialization |
| Async | Coroutines + Flow |
| DI | Hilt |
| Prefs / base URL | Jetpack DataStore |
| Tokens at rest | EncryptedSharedPreferences |
| Images | Coil |
| Min SDK | Android 10 (API 29) |
| Target / compile SDK | 35 |
Dependency and plugin versions are pinned in gradle/libs.versions.toml.
Build
Requires JDK 17 and the Android SDK (ANDROID_HOME / local.properties).
./gradlew assembleDebug # build a debug APK -> app/build/outputs/apk/debug/
./gradlew test # JVM unit tests
./gradlew lint # Android lint
./gradlew installDebug # install on a connected device/emulator
The app self-configures its server URL on first run (PLAN.md §3), so a single build works against any shard's website — there is no compiled-in API host.
CI
.gitea/workflows/pr-checks.yml gates PRs into main and edge with
./gradlew lint test assembleDebug on the org's self-hosted runner (JDK 17 + Android SDK). Debug
builds are auto-signed, so the gate needs no secrets. This pipeline is verified green end-to-end on
the runner (M0). A signed release APK attached to a Gitea release comes at M6.
edge is in the trigger deliberately: a workstream that lands its phases on a working branch
before one cutover PR into main otherwise gets no CI at all until the cutover — which is what
happened to all nine M12 phase PRs (docs/website/ENGAGEMENT.md §7.1 Q8). sonarqube.yml is
unaffected: it is a push-on-main analysis, not a PR gate.
The workflow carries a few runner-specific accommodations (each explained in comments in the file), because this self-hosted runner differs from a stock GitHub runner:
- JDK 17 is installed via
apt(notactions/setup-java) — the runner can't resolveapi.adoptium.net, while the Ubuntu mirrors are reachable. - SDK packages are installed explicitly via
sdkmanager, withset +o pipefailsoyesdying ofSIGPIPEdoesn't fail the step. gradlewischmod +x'd in the run step — the runner's checkout does not preserve the git executable bit, so./gradlewalone fails with "Permission denied".
