Getting started with the project migrate SDK:

You can download the Project Migrate binary SDK on the migrate github wiki page:

https://github.com/wileyenterpriseandroid/migrate/wiki

Specifically on the migrate releases page:

https://github.com/wileyenterpriseandroid/migrate-sdk/releases/

If you have not already downloaded and unpacked the latest SDK, please do so now.

Installation:

The projectmigrate SDK has two major pieces:

• Client:

A client in the form of an apk that contains the migrate content provider and sync adapter. Install the client using the included install script:

$SDK_DIR/install_client.sh

Or execute the following command lines:

adb install -r ./migrate-browser.apk
adb install -r ./migrate-client.apk

• Service:

The migrate backend service supports generic migrate synchronization persistence. Its recommended to simply use the projectmigrate beta service at the following URL:

http://beta.projectmigrate.com/

This url is the default when configuring a migrate client account in Android. You dont need to do anything other than install the migrate-client.apk to use this instance of the migrate backend.

Alternatively, you can also install the migrate server locally using the install script:

$SDK_DIR/install_server.sh

Or by copying installing apache tomcat and then copying migrate.war to:

$CATALINA_HOME/webapps

and the then restarting tomcat.

Configuration:

After you have installed the SDK, configure a client account one on your device or emulator using:

Settings -> Accounts/Add Account(+) -> ProjectMigrate SyncAdapter

Fill out the sign-in screen using the appropriate migrate url, as following:

http://beta.projectmigrate.com/

For a local tomcat installation use:

http://10.0.2.2:8080/migrate/

Schema configuration:

Any migrate based applications that you write will need to make use of a schema. You can either create the schema using the web front end of the migrate service, or you can generate it from a class. Please see, samples, MigrateContacts/README for instructions on generating a migrate schema and making it available for sync with the migrate backend service.

Samples:

After you have installed and configured the projectmigrate components, the easiest way to get started working with the SDK is to explore the SDK samples listed below:
