This Gradle plugin allows you to automatically resolve and add your native dependencies to jniLibs directory.
Apply the plugin in your build.gradle after the regular android plugin, then declare the list of your native dependencies.
buildscript {
repositories {
mavenCentral()
}
dependencies {
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:1.0.0'
classpath 'com.nabilhachicha:android-native-dependencies:0.1.2'
}
}
apply plugin: 'android'
apply plugin: 'android-native-dependencies'
native_dependencies {
artifact 'com.snappydb:snappydb-native:0.2.+:armeabi'
artifact 'com.snappydb:snappydb-native:0.2.+:x86'
}
dependencies {
//regular Jar dependencies ...
}
The artifact DSL follows the naming convention for Maven artifacts. thus, you can use one of the following syntax:
- abbreviated group:name:version[:classifier]
//adding x86 classifier will resolve only intel's (.so) lib
native_dependencies {
artifact 'com.snappydb:snappydb-native:0.2+:x86'
}
//omit the classifier will resolve all supported architectures
native_dependencies {
artifact 'com.snappydb:snappydb-native:0.2+'
}- map-style notation
//adding x86 classifier will resolve only intel's (.so) lib
native_dependencies {
artifact group: 'com.snappydb', name: 'snappydb-native', version: '0.2+', classifier: 'x86'
}
//omit the classifier will resolve all supported architectures
native_dependencies {
artifact group: 'com.snappydb', name: 'snappydb-native', version: '0.2+'
}In both notations, classifier is optional. this means that when omitted, the plugin try to resolve the artifact for all architectures: armeabi, armeabi-v7a, x86 and mips.
- Disable
libprefix:
You may want to disable the plugin from prefixing the resolved artifact with lib (when copying into jniLibs directory)
native_dependencies {
artifact ('com.snappydb:snappydb-native:0.2.+:armeabi') {
addLibPrefixToArtifact=false
}
}in this example the ARM dependency will have the name snappydb-native.so rather than libsnappydb-native.so
The plugin adds the resolveNativeDependencies task to your project, this task runs automatically whenever you build your project.
The plugin uses Gradle incremental task system to run faster if the configuration didn't change since the last build.
