setandroidbuildenv

Script to set building environment variables ready for building library for Android

How

It will set bunch of necessary environment variables to be used in building a library project for Android platform.

This requires you already install NDK, and set $ANDROID_NDK_HOME to your NDK version of choice.

There are the following configurable settings you can set

host_tag - indicate host value that builds (default is linux-x86_64)
minsdkversion - minimum sdk version to support, this is value of api level (default is 18)
target_abi - a single target abi value. it can be armeabi-v7a, x86, arm64-v8a, or x86_64 (default is armeabi-v7a)

The way to send in above parameters can be done with

. ./setandroidbuildenv minsdkversion=21 target_abi=arm64-v8a

or in case you've installed setandroidbuildenv to your executable path i.e. /usr/local/bin then you do the following instead

. setandroidbuildenv minsdkversion=21 target_abi=arm64-v8a

Note . which is to source exported environment variables inside the script, so we can use it outside in active shell.

setandroidbuildenv --help - to print help text
. setandroidbuildenv --unset - to unset all related and already set environment variables related in building operation (notice . source at the beginning of the command
setandroidbuildenv --print-active - to print active environment variables' value
. setandroidbuildenv <optional configurable settings> - to set environment variables for building
