The idea is to integrate a wiki instance in Android accounts.
The main use case is to get all the contact of your company/association intranet automatically synchronized on your phone so that you don't have to use a browser, go to your intranet, login and search form some user to see if he entered his phone in his profile. The other important part is to make sure this is as integrated and as standard as possible from Android point of view and allow other applications to use registered XWiki authenticators to access an XWiki instance without the need for the user to give the password to that application.
In Android parameters add a XWiki account and get a form to indicate the instance URL, a user and a password (or even anonymous for public wikis) and get automatic synchronization of XWiki users in the Android contacts.
Some work in that direction started on https://github.com/xwiki-contrib/android-authenticator but never get finished so the best would probably to start from this.

Date Title Detail 01 April-07 April Requirement Analysis Communicate with our community in irc and mail list, Analyze the development requirement of this android project and choose the dev platform(android studio, support 4.1+). 07 April-22 April Preliminary Learning Study the principle of AccountManager, learn some sample(google's SyncAdapterSample) and make some UI(Material Design) and Service demos. According to the requirement, I will also learn XWiki application interface(restful api and solr query) and write sample application to connect with server using httpclient or httpurlconnection.
25 April- 29 April V0.3 Designing and Coding Design the solution to this project, make document and start coding. Plan to complete material design, the main structure, the custom http library and using restful apis to communicate with xwiki server. Test unit functions and repair bugs. 02 May-10 May V0.5 Coding
AuthenticatorPlan to complete the authenticator function and the third-party authdemo app . Test this unit function with two third-party apps of different signatures. Start coding the synchronization fuction including the signing in, signing up, editing contact .etc.
11 May-20 May V0.7 Coding
synchronizationPlan to complete the synchronization of contacts, editing the contact and updating the settings.
Use jenkins to build automatically this android app and use jira to record the issues.23 May-27 May V0.8 Testing
and CodingFix bugs, finish issues, test functions and review code, like canceling all the aynctask when ondestroy, updating settings and process of signup, figuring out the security issues, handling some small issues.etc.
