A zc.buildout recipe that will install the android sdk and install tools, apis, and images

• Introduction

Introduction

xuru.recipe.android allows you to install the android sdk as part of your parts list. For example:

[my_android_sdk]
recipe = xuru.recipe.android
apis = 16 17
system_images = intel mips
sdk = http://dl.google.com/android/android-sdk_r22.0.4-macosx.zip
other_packages =
    Google Play APK Expansion Library
    Google Web Driver

This will install the android sdk into the parts directory, along with platform-tools, build-tools, and tools. It will then install version 16 and 17 apis. In addition, it will install the intel and mips system images for each of those apis.

The format of entries in the buidout section (my_android_sdk in this example) is:

[section_name]
recipe = xuru.recipe.android

Where options are:

apis

The list of api versions on one line seperated by spaces.

system_images

The list of system images types for each of the apis specified above. Valid values are intel, mips or arm.

sdk

The full url to the downloadable zip file for the android sdk.

install_dir

Optional absolute directory to install the sdk instead of the default <buidout parts directory>/android

other_packages

Optional list (on seperate lines) of extra packages to install. To see what packages there are to install type android list sdk -a on the command line after the sdk has been installed. The name must be a unique sub-string of the names listed.

dryrun

Set this to any of True, False, true, false, 1, 0 to set the boolean value. This determines whether or not to include the command line switch –dry-mode.

force

Set this to any of True, False, true, false, 1, 0 to set the boolean value. Forces replacement of a package or its parts, even if something has been modified.

Binaries Installed

A script will be generated in the bin directory for each of the following binaries: - adb - android - emulator - uiautomationviewer - lint

What This Does Not Install

If you installed the Intel x86 Emulator Accelerator (HAXM) package, you will find the installer in:

parts/android/android-sdk-macosx/extras/intel/Hardware_Accelerated_Execution_Manager/IntelHAXM.dmg

This recipe will not run any installers at this time.
