[Announce] AlloCine unofficial application for MeeGo Harmattan
 

Important information

I am currently in discussion with AlloCine to see how an official release of this app could be achieved (maybe tuned/modified a little to match the brand guidelines). Of course I cannot commit to anything at the moment.

During the time of this discussion, I will not keep the current app available as a download. I hope you understand that and I will of course let you know what are the outcomes of this discussion.

Application Details

The goal of this application for MeeGo Harmattan is to access to popular french website AlloCine with a native application. It is somewhat comparable in functionnalities to Android or iPhone official applications. Unfortunately, there is no official application for MeeGo Harmattan, so I chose to develop one.

Note that this is not an official application, and we are in no way related to AlloCine company.

Application will support other websites from AlloCine group which share the same API.

• 0.9.4: AlloCiné
• 0.9.5: Screenrush

Functionnalities:

Look for a theater
Find a theater nearby
Show theaters on a map
Find showtimes for a given theater
Look for a movie
Watch trailers for a movie
Casting details for a movie
Person details
Filmography of a person
Look for a person
Share a movie or a person (via sms, twitter, email, ...)
Look for incoming movies
Read reviews

The application is not yet released on Nokia Store. In the meantime, you can get the code from Github or download the attached following package.

The project uses GitHub bug tracking system

Project homepage

The homepage is hosted on GitHub but due to some stupid rules, as a new member I'm not allowed to put a link on my post, so I will try to add it as a comment...

Roadmap

We plan first to get a stable version with the current perimeter. Then we will port the application for Symbian, which should not be too painfull because it is almost only QML.

In a second time, we will cover the complete AlloCine API.

Updates
Version 0.9.5

• Add basic support for english translation and Screenrush english service in replacement of AlloCine french service. I believe this may help the non french speakers testers for the Maemo.org coding competition.

Version 0.9.6

• Correct english translation that was not working on 0.9.5

Version 0.9.7

• Add press and public review page
• New global search functionnality (flick down the main page to make search field appear)

Elle est vraiment superbe, j'ai pas eu le temps d'observer le code mais c'est exactement le genre d'application qui me plait à développer, en plus vous respectez les couleurs d'allociné... Bref, vraiment bien faite :)

BTW, is it your first qml app ?

Re: [Announce] AlloCine unofficial application for MeeGo Harmattan
 

Thanks.

Yes this is my first QML app - even my first mobile app. Not exactly a small project to start learning but I really wanted an AlloCine app so just had to start coding it :-)

By the way, I find QML very simple and interesting!

Any intentions of sending it on apps.formeego ? Would facilitate distribution of the app.
