WordPress for Android

If you're just looking to install WordPress for Android, you can find it on Google Play. If you're a developer wanting to contribute, read on.

Build Instructions

The gradle build system will fetch all dependencies and generate files you need to build the project. You first need to generate the local.properties (replace YOUR_SDK_DIR by your actual android sdk dir) file and create the gradle.properties file, the easiest way is to copy our example:

$ echo "sdk.dir=YOUR_SDK_DIR" > local.properties
$ cp ./WordPress/gradle.properties-example ./WordPress/gradle.properties

Previous command create a libs/ directory and clone all dependencies needed by the main WordPress for Android project. You can now build, install and test the project:

$ ./gradlew assembleVanillaDebug # assemble the debug .apk
$ ./gradlew installVanillaDebug  # install the debug .apk if you have an
                                 # emulator or an Android device connected
$ ./gradlew cAT                  # assemble, install and run unit tests

You can use Android Studio by importing the project as a Gradle project.
