Android

Release and Branding

An Android application should be structured like the following:

project_name
├── android
│   ├── AndroidManifest.xml
│   ├── alias.txt
│   ├── build.gradle
│   ├── gradle
│   │   └── wrapper
│   │       └── gradle-wrapper.properties
│   ├── icon.png
│   ├── password.txt
│   ├── project_name.keystore
│   └── res
│       ├── drawable-hdpi
│       │   └── icon.png
│       ├── drawable-ldpi
│       │   └── icon.png
│       └── drawable-mdpi
│           └── icon.png
├── deploy
│   └── android_minimal
│       └── build
├── project.go
└── qml
    └── project.qml

The content of the android folder will be copied into deploy/android_minimal/build before using gradle to bundle the binary inside a .apk.

You can use the AndroidManifest.xml found inside deploy/android_minimal/build as a template to build upon. (Set package identifier, icon, permissions, ...)

For example: android:icon="@drawable/icon" attribute can be added to application in AndroidManifest.xml to use the icon.png.

Java native interface

You can call android's java runtime directly from go. See java native interface example
