#Sodium-JNI [DEPRECATED]
A minimal JNI wrapper over libsodium. This is now deprecated. Kalium-JNI (now called libsodium-jni) seems to have come up with a similar design to this repository with regards to function exports. Since libsodium-jni has both addressed my original complaints and is actively maintained (at least more than this repository), I would advise using it instead.
Kalium is a very sensible Java wrapper over libsodium that depends on jnr-ffi
. Kalium takes an OOP approach
whereas Sodium-JNI provides a completely static API, and attempts to use Java primatives over library
defined classes.
Kalium-JNI mimics the Kalium API, but wraps libsodium using SWIG and the JNI. Sodium-JNI exports more
functions (sodium_init
, etc.) and doesn't attempt to provide an OOP wrapper. Sodium-JNI started as a fork
of Kalium-JNI, but has diverged significantly in both the build process and wrapper API.
- SWIG
- Android SDK + Android NDK
- Autotools (for building libsodium at the moment)
- set
JAVA_HOME
,ANDROID_HOME
andANDROID_NDK_HOME
environment variables
Make sure you clone this repo with the --recursive
flag set, it depends on libsodium as a submodule at the moment.
Run build-sodiumjni.sh
and a folder sodiumjni-androidlib
will be generated with the debug and release version of the .aar
The local .aar
can be included in an Android studio project
