OpenKeychain is an OpenPGP implementation for Android.
For a more detailed description and installation instructions go to http://www.openkeychain.org .
- The development of OpenKeychain happens in the "master" branch.
- For every release a new branch, e.g., "3.2-fixes" is created to backport fixes from "master"
Translations are managed at Transifex, please contribute there at https://www.transifex.com/projects/p/open-keychain/
- Lookout for interesting issues on Github. We have tagged issues were we explicitly like to see contributions: https://github.com/open-keychain/open-keychain/labels/help-wanted
- Read this README, especially the notes about coding style
- Fork OpenKeychain and contribute code (the best part ๐ )
- Open a pull request on Github. We will help with occuring problems and merge your changes back into the main project.
- PROFIT
- Join the development mailinglist at http://groups.google.com/d/forum/openpgp-keychain-dev
- Propose bigger changes and discuss the consequences
I am happy about every code contribution and appreciate your effort to help us developing OpenKeychain!

- Clone the project from GitHub
- Get all external submodules with
git submodule update --init --recursive
- Have Android SDK "tools", "platform-tools", and "build-tools" directories in your PATH (http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html)
- Open the Android SDK Manager (shell command:
android
).
Expand the Tools directory and select "Android SDK Build-tools (Version 21.1.2)".
Expand the Extras directory and install "Android Support Repository"
Select everything for the newest SDK Platform, API 22, and also API 21 - Export ANDROID_HOME pointing to your Android SDK
- Execute
./gradlew build
- You can install the app with
adb install -r OpenKeychain/build/outputs/apk/OpenKeychain-debug-unaligned.apk
- Use OpenJDK instead of Oracle JDK
- Execute
./gradlew test
We are using the newest Android Studio for development. Development with Eclipse is currently not possible because we are using the new project structure.
- Clone the project from Github
- Get all external submodules with
git submodule update --init --recursive
- From Android Studio: File -> Import Project -> Select the cloned top folder
Spongy Castle is the stock Bouncy Castle libraries with a couple of small changes to make it work on Android. OpenKeychain uses a forked version with some small changes. These changes will been sent to Bouncy Castle, and Spongy Castle will be used again when they have filtered down.

We try to make our builds as reproducible/deterministic as possible.
- Always use a fixed Android Gradle plugin version not a dynamic one, e.g.
0.7.3
instead of0.7.+
(allows offline builds without lookups for new versions, also some minor Android plugin versions had serious issues, i.e. 0.7.2 and 0.8.1) - Update every build.gradle file with the new gradle version and/or gradle plugin version
- build.gradle
- OpenKeychain/build.gradle
- run ./gradlew wrapper twice to update gradle and download the new gradle jar file
- commit the corresponding Gradle wrapper to the repository (allows easy building for new contributors without the need to install the required Gradle version using a package manager)
- Open build.gradle and change:
ext {
compileSdkVersion = 21
buildToolsVersion = '21.1.2'
}
- Change SDK and Build Tools in git submodules "openkeychain-api-lib" and "openpgp-api-lib" manually. They should also build on their own without the ext variables.
- You can add the library as a Maven dependency or as a git submodule (if patches are required) in the "extern" folder.
- If added as a Maven dependency, pin the library using Gradle Witness (Do
./gradlew -q calculateChecksums
for Trust on First Use) - If added as a git submodule, change the
compileSdkVersion
andbuildToolsVersion
in build.gradle to use the variables from the root project:
android {
compileSdkVersion rootProject.ext.compileSdkVersion
buildToolsVersion rootProject.ext.buildToolsVersion
}
- You can check for wrong
compileSdkVersion
byfind -name build.gradle | xargs grep compileSdkVersion
- https://www.timroes.de/2013/09/12/speed-up-gradle/
- Disable Lint checking if it is enabled in build.gradle
Gradle project dependencies are missing. Do a git submodule init && git submodule update
Try exporting JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS="-Dfile.encoding=UTF8"
Translations are hosted on Transifex, which is configured by ".tx/config".
- To pull newest translations install transifex client (e.g.
apt-get install transifex-client
) - Config Transifex client with "~/.transifexrc"
- Go into root folder of git repo
- execute
tx pull -af --skip
see http://help.transifex.net/features/client/index.html#user-client
- Indentation: 4 spaces, no tabs
- Maximum line width for code and comments: 100
- Opening braces don't go on their own line
- Field names: Non-public, non-static fields start with m.
- Acronyms are words: Treat acronyms as words in names, yielding !XmlHttpRequest, getUrl(), etc.
- Fully Qualify Imports: Do not use wildcard-imports such as
import foo.*;
