Please participate in quality assurance testing

See https://github.com/Catfriend1/syncthing-android/issues/122 for more details and QA builds.

Goal of the forked version

  • Develop and try out enhancements together
  • Release the wrapper more frequently to identify and fix bugs together caused by changes in the syncthing submodule
  • Make enhancements configurable in the settings UI, e.g. users should be able to turn them on and off
  • Let's get ready for newer Android versions that put limits on background syncing tools. We need your bug reports as detailed as possible

Translations

Building

Prerequisites

  • Android SDK You can skip this if you are using Android Studio.
  • Android NDK r16b $ANDROID_NDK_HOME environment variable should point at the root directory of your NDK. If the variable is not set, build-syncthing.py will automatically try to download and setup the NDK.
  • Go 1.9.7 Make sure, Go is installed and available on the PATH environment variable. If Go is not found on the PATH environment variable, build-syncthing.py will automatically try to download and setup GO on the PATH.
  • Python 2.7 Make sure, Python is installed and available on the PATH environment variable.
  • Git (for Linux) or Git for Windows Make sure, git (or git.exe) is installed and available on the PATH environment variable. If Git is not found on the PATH environment variable, build-syncthing.py will automatically try to download and setup MinGit 2.19.0-x64 on the PATH.
  • Java Version 8 (you might need to set $JAVA_HOME accordingly)

Build instructions

Make sure you clone the project with git clone https://github.com/Catfriend1/syncthing-android.git --recursive. Alternatively, run git submodule init && git submodule update in the project folder.
