Jami Android

This repository is meant for the porting of Jami to Android.

App	CI

Environment

Clone this as a submodule of: https://review.jami.net/#/admin/projects/ring-project to obtain the required Jami daemon source.

You can also manually clone the daemon and override the DAEMON_DIR during compilation

Make sure you have the android-ndk and android-sdk, and you'll want something like this in your .bashrc (or equivalent):

export ANDROID_NDK=$HOME/src/android-ndk
export ANDROID_NDK_ROOT=$ANDROID_NDK
export ANDROID_SDK=$HOME/src/android-sdk-linux
export ANDROID_HOME=$ANDROID_SDK
export PATH=$ANDROID_SDK/platform-tools:${PATH}

install swig-2.0.6 or later and python-2.7 or later on your system

Build instructions

Supported archs are: armeabi-v7a , arm64-v8a and x86_64

Example:

ANDROID_ABI="arm64-v8a x86_64"

Then:

./compile.sh

If you cloned the daemon in a custom directory (other than ../daemon), you can specify it using an absolute path:

DAEMON_DIR=custom_path ./compile.sh

When all else fails:

git clean -dfx
cd ../daemon (or custom_path)
git clean -dfx

And start again.

Update translations

Update translations using the Transifex client (tx) :

./update-translations.sh

Debugging

Retrieve client log from device (client must be running before executing this)

adb logcat *:D | grep `adb shell ps | egrep 'cx.ring' | cut -c10-15` > logring.txt
