The App is developed using Android Studio.
For testing the app, you need to obtain free API Keys for the
GoingElectric API,
the Chargeprice API,
the OpenChargeMap API,
as well as for Google APIs
("Maps SDK for Android" and "Places API" need to be activated) and/or Mapbox. These API keys need to be put into the
app in the form of a resource file called apikeys.xml
under app/src/main/res/values
, with the
following content:
<resources>
<string name="google_maps_key" templateMergeStrategy="preserve" translatable="false">
insert your Google Maps key here
</string>
<string name="mapbox_key" translatable="false">
insert your Mapbox key here
</string>
<string name="goingelectric_key" translatable="false">
insert your GoingElectric key here
</string>
<string name="chargeprice_key" translatable="false">
insert your Chargeprice key here
</string>
<string name="openchargemap_key" translatable="false">
insert your OpenChargeMap key here
</string>
</resources>
