Building binaries of LibIndy for Android

Not ready for production use! Not fully tested.

Prerequisites

  • Docker

Dependencies

  • The build scripts downloads the prebuilt dependencies while building. The prebuilt dependencies are available here
  • If you want build the dependencies by yourself the instructions for that can be found here

How to build.

  • Run indy-sdk/libindy/build-libindy-android.sh to build libindy for arm, arm64 and x86

Usage

  • Copy generated indy-sdk/libindy/build_scripts/android/libindy_<ARCHITECTURE>/libindy.so to the jniLibs folder of your android project
  • Load library using the JNA

Notes:

Make sure the Android app which is going to use libindy has permissions to write to external storage.

Add following line to AndroidManifest.xml

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"/>

Android emulator generally use x86 images

##Known Issues

  • The Android build does not successfully compile on OSX

    • It fails on the libzmq linking

  • If you are using Linux and want to build without docker, use the scriptindy-sdk/libindy/build_scripts/android/build.withoutdocker.sh .

  • usage e.g ./build.withoutdocker.sh -d x86 16 i686-linux-android to download the prebuilt binaries and build for x86 using api level 16 with ABI i686-linux-android

  • e.g ./build.withoutdocker.sh x86 16 i686-linux-android openssl_x86 libsodium_x86 libzmq_x86 if you want to pass the dependencies to the script
