HOWTO build FLOSS Dispenser¶
Install Maven¶
On Debian/Ubuntu (as root):
apt-get install maven2
Download the Android SDK¶
Unfortunately, the most convenient way to get the SDK is distributed by the Android Open Source Project, but that copy contains proprietary Google code and is wrapped in a restrictive proprietary license agreement. You can obtain a free SDK by following the directions in our wiki.
- Install the necessary SDK support
- Include at least Android 1.1 and 1.5
- You may need to create a
temp
directory at the top level of your SDK directory - You may also need to check the "Force HTTP" option under "Settings"
Install maven-android-sdk-deployer¶
This will allow us to set up a Maven dependency for particular versions of Android.
- Get the latest stable version of maven-android-sdk-deployer
- Set your ANDROID_HOME environment variable to point to your copy of the Android SDK:
export ANDROID_HOME=/path/to/sdk/
- Install maven-android-sdk-deployer
- cd into the directory where you unpacked the maven-android-sdk-deployer sources.
- Install maven-android-sdk-deployer according to the directions in the README file (either just
mvn install
for all platforms ormvn install -P [platform]
if you want to install for just one).
Add SDK tools/ directories to PATH¶
Add the Android SDK's primary and platform tools directories to your path (to give mvn
access to aapt
and apkbuilder
). Currently, the build process targets Android 1.5, but if you've changed it to target a different platform, use that one in the second export command.
export PATH=${PATH}:<your_sdk_dir>/tools export PATH=${PATH}:<your_sdk_dir>/platforms/android-1.5/tools
Get FLOSS Dispenser sources¶
mkdir fd-readonly cd fd-readonly git clone git://gitorious.org/replicant/floss-dispenser.git
