Setting up your development environment

  1. Download and install Git and add it to your PATH
  2. Download and install Android Studio

  3. Clone the project locally. At the command line:

    git clone https://github.com/fieldsight/fieldsight-mobile

    If you prefer not to use the command line, you can use Android Studio to create a new project from version control using https://github.com/fieldsight/fieldsight-mobile.

  4. Use Android Studio to import the project from its Gradle settings. To run the project, click on the green arrow at the top of the screen.

Creating signed releases for Google Play Store

Maintainers keep a folder with a clean checkout of the code

Maintainers have a local.properties file in the root folder with the following:

sdk.dir=/path/to/android/sdk

Maintainers have a secrets.properties file in the collect_app folder with the following:

// collect_app/secrets.properties
RELEASE_STORE_FILE=/path/to/collect.keystore
RELEASE_STORE_PASSWORD=secure-store-password
RELEASE_KEY_ALIAS=key-alias
RELEASE_KEY_PASSWORD=secure-alias-password

Maintainers also have a google-services.json file in the collect_app/google-services.json folder.

To generate official signed releases, you'll need the keystore file, the keystore passwords, a configured collect_app/secrets.properties file, Then run ./gradlew assembleRelease. If successful, a signed release will be at collect_app/build/outputs/apk.

Troubleshooting

Android Studio Error: SDK location not found. Define location with sdk.dir in the local.properties file or with an ANDROID_HOME environment variable.

When cloning the project from Android Studio, click "No" when prompted to open the build.gradle file and then open project.

Execution failed for task ':collect_app:transformClassesWithInstantRunForDebug'.

We have seen this problem happen in both IntelliJ IDEA and Android Studio, and believe it to be due to a bug in the IDE, which we can't fix. As a workaround, turning off Instant Run will usually avoid this problem. The problem is fixed in Android Studio 3.5 with the new Apply Changes feature.
