Wikipedia Android app is not available on Codesearch
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Either I failed to locate it, or the official Wikipedia Android app, https://github.com/wikimedia/apps-android-wikipedia , is not available in the Codesearch tool.

It should be :)

Codesearch does not index GitHub per T321402.
The official Wikipedia Android app is very welcome to move to Wikimedia GitLab or Gerrit.

Legoktm subscribed.

Er, we do. To clarify my comment on that task, we just don't use any proprietary APIs to discover said repositories. If someone wants a specific GitHub repo indexed, we can do that.

Endorsed :)

Uh, sorry! And thanks for clarifying!

I don't think we have a good section that would be able to hold it :/ Also it should move to gitlab.wikimedia.org (unrelated to this task)

Hmm, that method signature would not get worse from getting another flag if that is what it is all about. (I mean not for me to criticise the code in the language I don't even know, but wtf those flags 😅...)

Do you think that we should create a "Wiki mobile apps" section and index all mobile apps?

In the context of "official apps on github" also see T405525

Yes, I think a dedicated app section would be a good way to go!

Adding a new section is not hard but not as easy as adding a new repo to existing section. I can try to do it later today but also do you have any other repo in mind beside android and iOS to add? Having two (or three if you count commons app) repos only for a group is a bit weird :D

Like you mention, there's the Commons app, and also the new Wikisource Reader app; also, the mobile apps page Nemoralis linked includes some links to some Kiwix apps, but I don't quite understand how they're interconnected from a quick glance.
