Step2: How to add python chaquopy library

Chaquopy is distributed as a plugin for Android’s Gradle-based build system.

In your top-level build.gradle file, set the Chaquopy version:

plugins {
    id 'com.chaquo.python' version '13.0.0' apply false
}

In the module-level build.gradle file (usually in the app directory), apply the Chaquopy plugin after the Android plugin:
```
plugins {
    id 'com.chaquo.python'
}
```
The Python interpreter is a native component, so you must use the abiFilters setting to specify which ABIs you want the app to support. In the module-level build.gradle file (usually in the app directory), apply the ABI filter inside of the Android plugin:
```
android {
    ...
    defaultConfig {
        ndk {
            abiFilters "armeabi-v7a", "arm64-v8a", "x86", "x86_64"
        }
    }
    ...
}
```
Set buildPython. In the module-level build.gradle file (usually in the app directory), apply the buildPython inside of the Android plugin:
```
android {
    ...
    python {
        buildPython "python"
    }
    ...
}
```
Add source code. To include Python source code from other directories, use the android.sourceSets block. In the module-level build.gradle file (usually in the app directory), apply the sourceSets inside of the Android plugin:
```
android {
    ...
    sourceSets {
        main {
            python.srcDir "src/main/python/OSNMA"
        }
    }
    ...
}
```
Set startup. If the app only sometimes uses Python, then call Python.start() after first checking whether it’s already been started::
```
if (! Python.isStarted()) {
    Python.start(new AndroidPlatform(context));
}
```

To do

Create the pipeline for GitHub.
Bring OSNMA src code as submodule.
