Allow users to configure the URL of the sync server about anki-android HOT 9 CLOSED

I am only commenting to voice my support for this feature.

Users appreciate that AnkiDroid is open source and I would love to have control over my entire Anki ecosystem. I appreciate that the AnkiWeb service offered for free!!! but it is a bit of a black box, with rights reserved to do almost anything with our decks. (Which are quite a personal thing when you think about it.)

This seems like a simple and obvious addition to AnkDroid

dnsopek thanks for your work on this!

Ankidroid maintainers - thanks for your consideration on this issue

I am interested in working on this feature, though unfortunately many other
small projects have been eating into my time recently. If anyone decides
to take this feature on, I'd be happy to collaborate. It seems like it
should be relatively straightforward.

Is any sort of authentication necessary? If so, what?

Best,
Eric

Did anyone get AnkiDroid to work as jdoe0 described? Is changing the SYNC_URL and the port enough? Thanks.

@nyl2002 I haven't tried it yet, but I'm pretty sure that is enough! The Anki Server uses the exact same protocol as AnkiWeb and that's all that's necessary for the Anki desktop client to work with Anki Server. (FYI, we accomplish this by actually embedding the Anki desktop clients source code in the Anki Server ;-))

Thanks David. I get a runtime exception at com.ichi2.libanki.sync.Syncer.sync(Syncer.java:106) because the string [1390389686270,1390389686270,0,1390410721,0] coming from the server cannot be converted to JSONObject. Do you (or anybody else) have any idea why this would happen and how to fix it?
Versions: Ankidroid 2.0.3. and AnkiServer 2.0.5.
