android_mini_app

base on: https://github.com/czak/minimal-android-project.git

This repository explores how simple it can be to set up a valid, working Android project. You will need:

• One .java activity source file, placed in its appropriate package directory
• One AndroidManifest.xml
• One build.gradle
  • Certainly this is optional, as you can build the project using command line tools from the Android SDK. But let's not complicate things unnecessarily.

How to build

$ git clone https://github.com/sohumango/android_mini_app.git
$ gradle build

Notes

This project makes a few assumptions about your environment in order to build correctly:

• You have gradle installed, for Mac: brew install gradle
• You have JAVA_HOME set up.
• You have ANDROID_HOME set to the root folder of your Android SDK installation.
• SDK and build tools versions are hardcoded in build.gradle to 23, respectively.

Additionally, the folder structure relies on the source set convention expected by the Gradle Android plugin:

project
  ├── README.md
  ├── build.gradle
  └── src
      └── main
          ├── AndroidManifest.xml
          └── java
              └── com
                  └── minimal
                      └── MainActivity.java
