Create from HTML, CSS, and JavaScript

Apache Cordova

Cordova wraps your HTML/JavaScript app into a native container which can access the device functions of several platforms. These functions are exposed via a unified JavaScript API, allowing you to easily write one set of code to target nearly every phone or tablet on the market today and publish to their app stores.

PhoneGap

PhoneGap is the original and most popular distribution of Apache Cordova.

Android SDK

Android SDK setup

after download and extract SDK tools (approx 17 GB)

bash tools/android

install 32bit libraries

sudo dnf install zlib.i686 libstdc++.i686 libstdc++-devel.i686

set SDK dir environment variable

edit ANDROID_HOME in ~/.profile

AVDs

to generate a list of system image targets, use this command

$ android list targets

create AVD, supplying the target ID as the -t argument name “my_android6.0” and target ID (from list targets: 1 or “android-23”)

$ android create avd -n my_android6.0 -t 1 --abi "default/armeabi-v7a"

list avds

$ android list avd

start AVD (takes 100% of one of four cores)

$ emulator -avd my_android6.0

Debug using real device and JDB

list processes

$ cd $ANDROID_HOME/platform-tools/ $ adb jdwp

forward last process in list to tcp port

$ adb forward tcp:8700 jdwp:13358

start debugging using jdb (e.g. in Emacs M-x jdb)

$ jdb -attach localhost:8700 -sourcepath /tmp/android

stop port forwarding

$ adb forward --remove tcp:8700 or $ adb forward --remove-all

use bash script to connect

$ cd ~/Dropbox/Programming/Android/
$ bash jdb-connect.sh
