compatibility with theoldreader.com API

[bor]

Hello,

Thanks for sharing a great app! Especially on f-droid repo.

I have tried to use it with theoldreader.com account.
And have some issue.
Login, initial sync seems like OK, but sync after (marked) read smth is fail.
I have got errors like:

• Sync failed: Invalid HTTP status 404 ... /api/0/stream/contents/user/-/label/labelname?n=...
• Sync failed: Invalid JSON
• Sync failed: Invalid long: "123abc..."

I think a source of issues can be in a some difference to Google Reader API.
There is an API link: https://github.com/theoldreader/api

Is it possible to fix those issues?

Yes, there are indeed a few differences between the original Google Reader API and TheOldReader. It should be possible to make a special case when detecting TheOldReader server without too many changes. I cannot promise to find time for that soon, but would welcome a patch.

I use this app for theoldreader.com with this change. Seemingly the problem was that theoldreader.com API use ObjectId type for identifiers, and app parse it to Long. This generate a NumberFormatException.

Using ObjectID string value as UIDs in app if this exception was thrown solved the problem.
