Installation Instructions:
Steps to Install Acquire with all required dependencies
Add the following dependency to your app's build.gradle file:
dependencies {
implementation 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:27.1.0' // if not added already
implementation 'com.android.support:design:27.1.0' // if not added already
implementation 'com.android.support:support-emoji-appcompat:27.1.0' // if not added already
implementation 'com.android.support:customtabs:27.1.0' // if want to give support for links
implementation ('io.socket:socket.io-client:1.0.0') {
exclude group: 'org.json', module: 'json'
}
implementation 'pl.droidsonroids.gif:android-gif-drawable:1.2.+'
implementation 'com.amitshekhar.android:android-networking:1.0.2'
implementation 'com.acquireio:core:2.+'
implementation 'com.squareup.picasso:picasso:2.71828'
}For our sdk you will need to add these lines to your project's build.gradle.
// Add these lines to your project gradle:
allprojects {
repositories {
maven {
url "http://107.155.116.28:8086/artifactory/libs-release-local"
}
}
}Same way if you want to use our co-browse only sdk you can do by adding the following dependency to your app's build.gradle file:
implementation 'com.acquireio:cobrowse_only:1.+'
implementation 'com.android.support:design:27.1.1'
implementation 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:28.0.0-rc01'
implementation('io.socket:socket.io-client:1.0.0') {
exclude group: 'org.json', module: 'json'
}And project gradle remains same for both sdks.
Setup and Configuration
- Our installation guide contains full setup and initialisation instructions.
- The configuration guide provides info on how to configure Acquire for Android.
- Please contact us on Acquire with any questions you may have, we're only a message away!
Permissions
We include the INTERNET permission by default as we need it to make network requests:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"/>Run-time permissions:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CAMERA" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECORD_AUDIO" />It will ask audio/video permissions when required to make a video call.
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />These permissions needed when an attachment is selected to share from the app.
Building
- Make sure you've installed the Android 7.1.1 SDK and upgraded to the latest version of Android Studio
- Make sure you've updated all support repository and Google Play Services repository packages in the Android SDK manager
- See the configuration and clone the environment into your project to run our Acquire chat sdk.
Note : If you are using gradle Plugin version 3.0 then use implementation instead of compile.
For release apk if you want to give support to arm-v7 ABI only then use "'com.acquireio:core-arm-v7a:1.+'" instead of "'com.acquireio:core:1.+'". to reduce apk size.
And that's it
