syncthing-android

A wrapper of syncthing for Android.

Get it on Google Play

Building

To get syncthing app for android running on you device/emulator the native syncthing binary has to be available. There are multiple ways to get the native syncthing binary:

  • open a syncthing apk (the one taken from the play store) running on your device as a zip, extract the lib/ folder into your project directory and rename it to libs/.
  • Depending on your target architecture, download syncthing-linux-386, syncthing-linux-armv5, syncthing-linux-armv7 or syncthing-linux-mips from syncthing releases, and extract the binary to libs/x86/libsyncthing.so, libs/armeabi-v7a/libsyncthing.so, libs/armeabi/libsyncthing.so or libs/mips/libsyncthing.so respectively.
  • Set up a syncthing compile and run gradle buildNative in your syncthing-android directory.

Then, run gradle assembleDebug.

Development Notes

The syncthing backend used for this android application provides a webinterface by default. It can be acces via the Settings menu -> 'Web GUI'. It is quite helpful to access this web interface from you development machine. Read android documentation on how to do so or execute the following steps (assuming you have only one emulator/avd started)

  • telnet localhost 5554
  • redir add tcp:18080:8080
  • Start synchting app on your emulator and access the web ui from you favorite browser of your development machine via http://127.0.0.1:18080
