ANDROID BUILD NOTES
|
|
======================
|
|
|
|
This guide describes how to build and package the `bitcoin-qt` GUI for Android on Linux and macOS.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Dependencies
|
|
|
|
Before proceeding with an Android build one needs to get the [Android SDK](https://developer.android.com/studio) and use the "SDK Manager" tool to download the NDK and one or more "Platform packages" (these are Android versions and have a corresponding API level).
|
|
|
|
The minimum supported Android NDK version is [r23](https://github.com/android/ndk/wiki/Changelog-r23).
|
|
|
|
In order to build `ANDROID_API_LEVEL` (API level corresponding to the Android version targeted, e.g. Android 9.0 Pie is 28 and its "Platform package" needs to be available) and `ANDROID_TOOLCHAIN_BIN` (path to toolchain binaries depending on the platform the build is being performed on) need to be set.
|
|
|
|
API levels from 24 to 29 have been tested to work.
|
|
|
|
If the build includes Qt, environment variables `ANDROID_SDK` and `ANDROID_NDK` need to be set as well but can otherwise be omitted.
|
|
This is an example command for a default build with no disabled dependencies:
|
|
|
|
ANDROID_SDK=/home/user/Android/Sdk ANDROID_NDK=/home/user/Android/Sdk/ndk-bundle make HOST=aarch64-linux-android ANDROID_API_LEVEL=28 ANDROID_TOOLCHAIN_BIN=/home/user/Android/Sdk/ndk-bundle/toolchains/llvm/prebuilt/linux-x86_64/bin
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Building and packaging
|
|
|
|
After the depends are built configure with one of the resulting prefixes and run `make && make apk` in `src/qt`. |
