Android app using PySyft protocol

See publication in PySyft for Android. Extending OpenMined to mobile devices

Android Worker

The Android Worker is an app that connects to a PySyft worker and performs the operations on its behalf. It is part of a setup that uses a socket server, a socket client and the app itself which is another socket client

Quick start

• Start the socket server
  • There is an example provided in the code: socketio_server_demo.py
• Start a Jupyter notebook and create a WebsocketIOClientWorker object.
  • Note that you need to provide strategies for serialization and compression
  • See the example examples/experimental/Sockets/Socket%20Bob.ipynb
• Run the app
• Execute the operations in the notebook and see how Android handles them!

Notes

• The project is still in an early stage and only some PySyft operations are implemented: send, get, add, delete
• Make sure the socket server, the client in the notebook and the app all point to the same host/port
• To run the setup locally, it is better to use an Android emulator
