Bootstrap Android

To install the Android Maven dependencies in your local environment, run the following:

  • Clone https://github.com/mosabua/maven-android-sdk-deployer into your workstation
  • Set the ANDROID_HOME environment to the location of the Android SDK, eg. export ANDROID_HOME=/Developer/adt-bundle-mac-x86_64-20130219/sdk/
  • Run mvn install -P 4.3 from the maven-android-sdk-deployer directory. The build will fail if API 18 and some extra packages are not installed.

You can then compile the bootstrap project by running

mvn package -P 4.3

If mvn package fails, try deleting your ANDROID_HOME folder and downloading everything again. If it still doesn't work try:

android-sdk/tools/android update sdk --no-ui --obsolete --force

and then run mvn clean ; mvn install
