Build Requirements

Install from developer.android.com:

Make sure add the necessary android tools to your bin path. For example, assuming you installed the SDK and NDK to ~/dev on a linux machine, you would add this to your path:

~/dev/android-sdk-linux/tools
~/dev/android-sdk-linux/platform-tools
~/dev/android-ndk-r9d

Installable via android command (SDK Manager):

  • Android SDK Build-tools, 19.0.3
  • Android Support Repository, 4+

We need Mercurial:

Finally, install a java compiler. For example:

sudo apt-get install default-jdk

Build native sources

To build NDK sources, you need to issue these commands:

cd app
./build-native.sh
cd .. (to get back to the project directory)

Compiling from the command line

Signed APK

If you want to release a signed APK, you'll have to create a gradle.properties file in the project root with the following structure:

storeFileProperty=fullPath
storePasswordProperty=store password without quotation marks
keyAliasProperty=key alias without quotation marks
keyPasswordProperty=key password without quotation marks

Actual command

./gradlew build

The resulting apk(s) will be in app/build/apk.

Using Android Studio

  • Import project => select bitmask_android top folder

Running tests

To run the automated tests:

  1. Run an emulator
  2. Unlock Android
  3. Issue the command ./gradlew connectedCheck
  4. Pay attention and check the "Trust this app" checkbox, if you don't do so tests won't run.

Due to the nature of some tests, adb will lose its connectivity and you won't receive any tests results. To look for failed tests, do the following:

  1. adb kill-server
  2. adb logcat | less
  3. Look for: "failed: test"

We'll polish this process soon, but right now that's what we're doing (well, in fact, we run "adb logcat" in Emacs and then search "failed: test" in the corresponding buffer ;) ).
