Request: Build Instructions

[Hackling92]

I am having some trouble getting gradle to cooperate, so I was wondering if you would be willing to post some build instrutions/requirements in the readme.

There isn't anything special. I'm using Android Studio 3.1.3 and gradle 4.4
You should be able to use it straight away. What's the error message you are getting?

First it is complaining about missing settings.gradle then "Transform output file ..\protobuf-java-3.6.0.jar does not exist."

[borconi]

I've uploaded the jar, but it't nothing else then the protobuf in jar format from: https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/com/google/protobuf/protobuf-java/

[ikrogers]

Looks like this line in build.gradle is mucking things up. //implementation files('libs/protobuf-java-3.6.0.jar')
What is it for?

Upon commenting it out the app was built with no problem. I haven't tested functionality yet

Worth nothing that this project should not be imported through intuitive "Import Project" dialog but rather with "Open Existing Android Project".

It's needed so you can use protobufers but I think you can simply get rid of it. I only have it there because I'm extending the app with other functionality as well, but for the current stage it can be simply removed. Sorry I totally forgot about that and when you first mentioned I didn't even think I just uploaded the jar file. Kind regards Emil Borconi-Szedressy Tel: +44-791-32-32-588

I've just opened a PR with the information of how to build this project, and some fixes to the project files.
