With this app installed in the mobile device a user can see the floor maps of HFT building and get to know their location, track their recently walked path and gets to know their surrounding area like steps, cafeteria and some other reference points.
These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine for development purposes. See deployment for notes on how to deploy the project on an Android device.
See the the Application Documentation for further user and developer instructions.
To get started with development you first need to ensure a current Java JDK is installed on your System (JDK8 or later). You can get version 8 of the Java Development Kit from Oracle here or from the repository of your distribution when using Linux.
Further, you need to have the current Android SDK installed. However, the use of the IDE Android Studio is recommended, which contains the recent Android SDK and supports SDK management, therefore an installation guide for the Android SDK is not part of these setup guidelines.
To get a basic setup you just need to clone the project and run a few commands to get started:
# Clone the project
git clone https://github.com/ProjectIndoor/projectindoorapp.git
# Installs the Debug build (Mac or Linux)
./gradlew installDebug
# Installs the Debug build (Windows)
gradlew installDebugOr just build and run the app from Android Studio (recommended), after cloning it.
This is the basic state you need to continue development. Although, you can develop and run the app using a text editor and the command line prompt, it is recommended to use Android Studio in order to run the application on a device.
For deployment an APK file is provided. It can be accessed in Releases. The latest release can be accessed here.
The attached APK file can be moved to an Android device's file system and then be installed by executing it.
