This project implements a http listener on top of sync-android to allow sync-android to become a replication target.

This project is a prototype. It can perform a basic replication based on the steps below, however, a lot more functionality needs to be implemented to support replication proper. Expect lots of bugs, this code needs much more testing.

Note that this project is community supported.

• check out this project

git clone https://github.com/ibm-cds-labs/sync-android-p2p
cd sync-android
./gradlew test

If you are using eclipse, execute below command. For Android studio, skip to Using Android Studio section

./gradlew eclipse

• In Eclipse, create a Run Configuration to run P2PTest.java. Ensure the VM Arguments are set to this for the test:

-ea -Dsqlite4java.library.path=native

To run JUnit tests in Android Studio you will need to set VM arguments in the following way:

• In menu, select Run -> Edit configurations
• In Edit configurations screen select Defaults -> JUnit
• At right hand panel add -ea -Dsqlite4java.library.path=native as VM Options

./gradlew clean build uploadArchives
git add repository/
git commit ...
git push 

Example build.gradle:

apply plugin: 'android'

android {
  compileSdkVersion 19
  buildToolsVersion '19.0.0'

  repositories {
    mavenLocal()
    mavenCentral()
    maven { url "http://maven.restlet.org" }
    maven { url "http://cloudant.github.io/cloudant-sync-eap/repository/" }
    maven { url 'https://github.com/ibm-cds-labs/sync-android-p2p/raw/master/repository/' }
  }

  ...
    
  dependencies {
    compile 'net.christophersnow:sync-android-p2p:0.0.5-SNAPSHOT'
  }
}
