This app is based on the source code of Wordpress for Android.
The gradle build system will fetch all dependencies and generate files you need to build the project. You first need to copy create the local.properties file, the easiest way is to copy our example:
$ cp local.properties-example local.properties
Then edit the local.properties file to add your Android
sdk.dir
. After this step, you can invoke gradle to build, install
and test the project:
$ ./gradlew assembleDebug # assemble the debug .apk
$ ./gradlew installDebug # assemble and install the debug .apk if you
# have an emulator or an Android device connected
$ ./gradlew cIT # assemble, install and run unit tests
Note: you can use the Android Studio IDE, import the project as a Gradle project.
The original source code was made by the Wordpress team, so check them out on their IRC channel: #WordPress-Mobile
(freenode). Read
