To test this patch, I guess we also need patch in the bug 816912
Depends on: 816912
Hi Evelyn,

Yes, you are right.
Thanks.

To test these two patch, we might also need the new Keyboard APIs supporting.
For Keyboard App, it used the window.navigator.mozKeyboard.inputType API.
And I already wrote the email to Xulei.
Hi Xulei, any schedule of landing mozKeyboard API in Gecko side? We hope we could land both keyboard manager (in bug 816912) and keyboard app patches (here) by the end of this week. We don't want to break anything on gaia master so we should make sure there is no impact if mozKeyboard API can't be landed in time.

Rudy, please test carefully to make sure we didn't break anything. The keyboard app should work as before.
Hi Evelyn,

I got it.
And I also updated the code for your comments.

Thanks. :)

The patch of extended mozKeyboard API will be ready this week, but I can't not ensure that it can land by this weekend, since it may require more than one week to review.

To remove the dependency of extended mozKeyboard API, you only need to remove the reference of  mozKeyboard.inputType in gaia side.

Hi all,

Thanks for the work.
I found several issues when I test this patch with that of bug 816912.

1. The latency to show the keyboard is noticeable.
   Most of the time, the keyboard will be shown with some keys that are not rendered completely.
   Sometimes, it will show the background (of homescreen) first and then the keyboard appears.

2. Long press the "switch language" and select one of the layouts.
   There are several issues here, sometimes we cannot switch the language again.
   Let's talk about this face-to-face.

3. Right now all keyboard layouts are enabled by default.
   Is this by intention?

4. :djf made some modification in 132c5a712ec4d4e92208ba4fc65ca98b8be00b31 for keyboard auto-correction, we might need to update the code to accommodate that change, or it seems word suggestion could not work.
Hi all,

I found a new issues.

After switched to a new keyboard layout from default one, user clicked another input filed. And the keyboard manager showed the default layout, not the new one.
Hi all,

This bug are waiting for UI spec and new Keyboard APIs.

Hi David, Tim,

Please help review the 1st part of the big changes we need for 3rd-party keyboard support.

I would need your help to review this commit only, which is focused on keyboard app itself.
https://github.com/mozilla-b2g/gaia/commit/92235a8ce3ea4a4902bb11871ba485158b8e486b 

The other 2 commits are needed to test the new IME framework and will be reviewed by other module peers/owners but feel free to take a look if you are interested.

Some cleanup and work are not done yet, listed below, but I would like to send this patch first and get your feedback.
  
[Work to be done]
  1. Move settings from mozSettings to keyboard app itself.
     - and cleanup all references to keyboard layout settings.
  2. Modify latin IME to use onsurroundingtextchange and composition related API.
  
Thank you.
