To develop this application you will need the Android SDK.

First replace ApiUrl in ServerAPI.java with a valid URL leading to the server-side component. Then run the following command in the project root to build the project:

$ ./gradlew assembleDevelopment

To install the debug build on an emulator run the following command in the project root (version number is determined by versionName in App/build.gradle):

$ adb install -r App/build/outputs/apk/lokki-v[versionName]-debug.apk

To install it on a device, connect a device via USB (make sure USB debugging is enabled on the device) and run the command:

$ adb install -rd App/build/outputs/apk/lokki-v[versionName]-debug.apk

For further information see the Android documentation.

Project has different product flavors, that can be specified by adding either "Development" or "Production" after some of the gradle commands, like this:

$ ./gradlew assembleDevelopment
$ ./gradlew assembleProduction

Currently product flavors differ only by server URL they're using.

To run the tests run the following command in the project root:

$ ./gradlew connectedAndroidTestDevelopment

Make sure an emulator or device is connected, running and the screen is unlocked. If it looks like your tests are failing without a good reason, try to disable animations in your device/emulator you're using.

For general code style guidelines see the Android code style guidelines. Contrary to what the document says, these are not strict rules for the lokki-android project.

For design follow the Material design guidelines. Be sure to make your changes compatible with pre-Lollipop devices with the Android Support Library.
