Follow these steps to setup your dev environment:

1. Clone the git repo, make sure you fork first if you intend to commit

2. Init and update git submodules

   $ git submodule update --init --recursive
   

3. Ensure NDK_BASE env variable is set to the location of your NDK, example:

   $ export NDK_BASE=/path/to/android-ndk
   

4. Build android-ffmpeg

   $ cd external/android-ffmpeg-java/external/android-ffmpeg/
   $ ./configure_make_everything.sh
   

5. Create SecureSHaredLib third party credentials file

   vim ./external/SecureShareLib/SecureShareUILibrary/res/values/credentials.xml
   

   Add the following contents:

   <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
   <resources>
       <!-- insert your own keys from: https://www.flickr.com/services/apps/create/apply/ -->

       <string name="google_app_name">REPLACE_WITH_YOUR_APP_NAME</string>
   
       <string name="s3_key">REPLACE_WITH_YOUR_APP_NAME</string>
       <string name="s3_secret">REPLACE_WITH_YOUR_APP_NAME</string>
       <string name="s3_bucket">REPLACE_WITH_YOUR_APP_NAME</string>
       <string name="s3_path_prefix">REPLACE_WITH_YOUR_APP_NAME</string>
   
       <string name="sm_key">REPLACE_WITH_YOUR_SM_KEY</string>
       <string name="sm_secret">REPLACE_WITH_YOUR_SM_SECRET</string>
   
       <string name="sm_tor_host">REPLACE_WITH_YOUR_TOR_HOST</string>
       <string name="sm_tor_port">REPLACE_WITH_YOUR_TOR_PORT</string>
   </resources>

6. Create Google Play Developer Account credentials file

   <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
   <resources>
       <string name="base64_public_key">REPLACE WITH YOUR PUBLIC KEY</string>
       <string name="liger_salt">REPLACE WITH A STRING OF BYTES</string>

Android Studio Specific Steps

After completing all items under Prerequisites:

1. File -> Import Project -> Point to the root project directory

2. (optional) Build from the command line

   $ ./gradlew assembleDebug
   

How to update content packs

• update AVAILABLE_INDEX_VERSION in Constants:

$ gedit storymaker/external/liger/lib/src/main/java/scal/io/liger/Constants.java

• generate zip:

./content.py generate ; ./content.py zip_one_content_pack beta 6 ./content.py generate ; ./content.py zip_one_content_pack citizen_journalism_pack 2

• update records in available_index.json (version, size and hash)

$ gedit external/liger/lib/src/main/assets/available_index.json

• test:

./content.py push_test_files beta 6 ./content.py push_test_files citizen_journalism_pack 2

• test it:

• upload zip to s3

• make public

Testing

We have a helper script "run-tests.sh" that should run the core tests

There are several test classes you can also run manually:

• DownloadAndPatchTest - downloads a content pack with a patch and verifies their content

• EndToEndTest.java - logs in before creating and uploading a new story

• HookPathsTest.java - checks all possible hook paths for dead ends

Please note that you must build with the "testing" branch of the liger(storypath) submodule to run DownloadAndPatchTest. To do this, follow these steps:

```
$ cd external/liger/
$ git fetch origin testing:testing
$ git checkout testing
```

To return to the "master" branch of liger(storypath) for a normal build, do the following:

```
$ cd external/liger/
$ git checkout master
```

Eclipse Specific Steps
