No longer in active development

AdAway is no longer in active development. If you like to take over the maintaining, simply fork it and implement fixes. I will only do basic maintenance like merging pull requests and releasing new versions.

AdAway

AdAway is an open source ad blocker for Android using the hosts file.

For more information visit http://adaway.org

Build with Gradle

Build Executables

  1. Have NDK directory in your PATH (http://developer.android.com/tools/sdk/ndk/index.html)
  2. Change to "AdAway" directory with cd AdAway
  3. Execute ndk-build to compile native binaries.

Build APK

  1. Have Android SDK "tools", "platform-tools", and "build-tools" directories in your PATH (http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html)
  2. Open the Android SDK Manager (shell command: android). Expand the Extras directory and install "Android Support Repository"
  3. Export ANDROID_HOME pointing to your Android SDK
  4. Execute ./gradlew renameExecutables (IMPORTANT unusual step!)
  5. Execute ./gradlew build

Contribute

Fork AdAway and do a Pull Request. I will merge your changes back into the main project.

Development

I am using the newest Android Studio for development. Development with Eclipse is currently not possible because I am using the new project structure.

  1. Clone the project from github
  2. From Android Studio: File -> Import Project -> Select the cloned top folder
  3. Import project from external model -> choose Gradle

Translations

Translations are hosted on Transifex, which is configured by ".tx/config".

  1. To pull newest translations install transifex client (e.g. apt-get install transifex-client)
  2. Config Transifex client with "~/.transifexrc"
  3. Go into root folder of git repo
  4. execute tx pull (tx pull -a to get all languages)

see http://help.transifex.net/features/client/index.html#user-client

Coding Style

Code

  • Indentation: 4 spaces, no tabs
  • Maximum line width for code and comments: 100
  • Opening braces don't go on their own line
  • Field names: Non-public, non-static fields start with m.
  • Acronyms are words: Treat acronyms as words in names, yielding !XmlHttpRequest, getUrl(), etc.

See http://source.android.com/source/code-style.html

XML

  • XML Maximum line width 999
  • XML: Split multiple attributes each on a new line (Eclipse: Properties -> XML -> XML Files -> Editor)
  • XML: Indent using spaces with Indention size 4 (Eclipse: Properties -> XML -> XML Files -> Editor)

See http://www.androidpolice.com/2009/11/04/auto-formatting-android-xml-files-with-eclipse/
