- Exporting for Android
- =====================
- Exporting for android has much less requirements than compiling Godot
- for it. As follows are the steps to setup the SDK and the engine.
- Download the Android SDK
- ------------------------
- Download and install the Android SDK from
- http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
- Download the Java 6 or OpenJDK6
- -------------------------------
- Download and install Java 6 or OpenJDK 6, Android needs this version and
- it seems that jarsigner (what is used to sign APKs) from greater
- versions do not work.
- Create a debug.keystore
- -----------------------
- Android needs a debug keystore file to install to devices and distribute
- non-release APKs. If you have used the SDK before and have built
- projects, ant or eclipse probably generated one for you (In Linux and
- OSX, you can find it in the ~/.android folder).
- If you can't find it or need to generate one, the keytool command from
- the JDK can be used for this purpose:
- ::
- keytool -keyalg RSA -genkeypair -alias androiddebugkey -keypass android -keystore debug.keystore -storepass android -dname "CN=Android Debug,O=Android,C=US" -validity 9999
- Make sure you have adb
- ----------------------
- ADB is the command line tool used to communicate with Android devices.
- It's installed with the SDK, but you may need to install one (any) of
- the Android API levels for it to be installed in the SDK directory.
- Setting it up in Godot
- ----------------------
- Enter the Editor Settings screen. This screens contains the editor
- settings for the user account in the computer (It's independent from the
- project).
- .. image:: /img/editorsettings.png
- Scroll down to the section where the Android settings are located:
- .. image:: /img/androidsdk.png
- In that screen, the path to 3 files needs to be set:
- - The *adb* executable (adb.exe on Windows)
- - The *jarsigner* executable (from JDK6)
- - The debug *keystore*
- Once that is configured, everything is ready to export to Android!
