go-waku/examples/android-kotlin

Android Kotlin Example

Requirements

• Android Studio

Running this example

These instructions should be executed in the terminal:

# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/status-im/go-waku.git
cd go-waku

# Set required env variables
export ANDROID_NDK_HOME=/path/to/android/ndk
export ANDROID_HOME=/path/to/android/sdk/

# Build the .jar
make mobile-android

# Copy the jar into `libs/` folder
cp ./build/lib/gowaku.aar ./examples/android-kotlin/app/libs/.

Open the project in Android Studio and run the example app.

Help wanted!

• Is it possible to build go-waku automatically by executing make mobile-android and copying the .jar automatically into libs/ in Android Studio?
• Permissions should be requested on runtime
• Determine the required permission to fix this:

• The example app blocks the main thread and code in general could be improved
