Build
Clone this repo and cd into it
$ git clone [email protected]:TeskaLabs/CatVision-Android.git
$ cd CatVision-Android
Clone submodules
$ git submodule init
$ git submodule update
Now you can proceed with the following steps:
- Build the VNC server library
- Download SeaCat Client dependency
- Build the cvio module's JNI
- Build the AAR
Build the VNC server library
You need Android NDK toolset to build the binaries for Android devices. They need to be available in your $PATH or $ANDROID_NDK.
For example on Mac OSX, if you had installed Android NDK using the Android SDK manager before:
$ export ANDROID_NDK="${HOME}/Library/Android/sdk/ndk-bundle"
Then build the VNC server
$ cd external
$ ./build.sh
Download SeaCat Client dependency
The CatVision.io module depends on SeaCat Client. SeaCat takes care for identifying your device and making it able to connect securely.
$ cp SeaCatClient_Android_v1611-rc-1-release.aar ./seacat
Build the cvio module's JNI
CatVision java class uses JNI interface to call the VNC server's functions.
$BASEDIR is the path to the cloned repository.
$ cd $BASEDIR/cvio/src/main/jni
$ ./build.sh
Build the project
Use Android Studio: Build->Clean Project, Build->Make Project
The CatVision AAR is now in $BASEDIR/cvio/build/outputs/aar
TODO: build from command line
Sign CatVision.IO AAR
$ apksigner sign --ks truststore.ks --out catvision-io-sdk-android-v1801.aar --min-sdk-version 14 catvision-io-sdk-android-v1801-release-aligned.aar
