Generating your Bootstrap App

Why generate? Simple ... renaming files, folders, copy and pasting is SUPER error prone and well... it sucks overall. This can easily take a few days with debugging if you run into issues and perform a lot of typo's. Using the generator on AndroidBootstrap.com you can generate your application with your application name as well as the package (and folder structure) that you want to work with.

As an example, you know that you want your app name and package to the following:

• App Name: Notify
• Package Name: com.notify.app.mobile

After generating the app on AndroidBootstrap.com the folder structure of the source code for the app will change:

• From: com/donnfelker/android/bootstrap
• To: com/notify/app/mobile

At that point all the source files that were located in __com/donnfelker/android/bootstrap will be moved to the new folder com/notify/app/mobile.

All import statments that reference the old resources (R.com.donnfelker.android.bootstrap.R) will now be renamed to the correct package. The artifact id's in the pom.xml (and various other places) will be replaced. The App Name will be replaced in the strings/etc.

The end result is that you will be given a zip file with the correct structure. Open the zip and then execute mvn clean package and your app should be ready for development.

Enjoy!

Building

The build requires Maven v3.0.3+ and the Android SDK to be installed in your development environment. In addition you'll need to set the ANDROID_HOME environment variable to the location of your SDK:

export ANDROID_HOME=/home/donnfelker/tools/android-sdk

After satisfying those requirements, the build is pretty simple:

• Run mvn clean package from the app directory to build the APK only
• Run mvn clean install from the root directory to build the app and also run the integration tests, this requires a connected Android device or running emulator

You might find that your device doesn't let you install your build if you already have the version from the Android Market installed. This is standard Android security as it it won't let you directly replace an app that's been signed with a different key. Manually uninstall Android Bootstrap from your device and you will then be able to install your own built version.

Acknowledgements

Android Bootstrap is a result of a template project I've developed over the years as well as a combination of a lot of great work that the GitHub Gaug.es app and GitHub Android app showcased. Some of the code in this project is based on the GitHub Gaug.es and GitHub Android app.

Android Bootstrap is built on the awesome Parse.com API and uses many great open-source libraries from the Android dev community:

• ActionBarSherlock for a consistent, great looking header across all Android platforms, ViewPagerIndicator for swiping between fragments and NineOldAndroids for view animations - all from Jake Wharton.
• MenuDrawer for the menu drawer navigation.
• Dagger for dependency-injection.
• ButterKnife for view injection
• Otto as the event bus
• Robotium for driving our app during integration tests.
• android-maven-plugin for automating our build and producing release-ready APKs.
• http-request for interacting with remote HTTP resources (API's in this case).
• google-gson for consuming JSON and hydrating POJO's for use in the app.

Contributing

Please fork this repository and contribute back using pull requests.

Any contributions, large or small, major features, bug fixes, additional language translations, unit/integration tests are welcomed and appreciated but will be thoroughly reviewed and discussed.

I hope this helps you in building your next android app.
