Ring Android
This repository is meant for the porting of Ring to Android.
Environment
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, armeabi, arm64-v8a, x86, x86_64 or mips
Example:
ANDROID_ABI ="armeabi-v7a, x86"
Then:
./compile.sh
We use a tested hash to build ring daemon, but if you want to use master:
cd ring && git pull
cd -
./compile --build
--build
will bypass the tested hash's checkout.
When all else fails:
rm -rf ring-daemon
git clean -dfx
And start again.
Update translations
Update translations using the Transifex client (tx) :
./update-translations.sh
