The NetBird Android client allows connections from mobile devices running Android to private resources in the NetBird network.
You can download and install the app from the Google Play Store:
We need the following software:
- Java 1.11. Usually comes with Android Studio
- android studio initialized with jdk and emulator (not covered here, is a req from android-client project)
- gradle (https://gradle.org/install/)
- Close all repositories:
assuming you use a path like ~/projects locally
mkdir ~/projects
cd projects
# clone netbird repo
git clone --recurse-submodules [email protected]:netbirdio/android-client.git- Checkout the repositories to the branches you want to test. If you want the latest, check the status information on your IDE or on https://github.com and verify the branch list and commit history.
- Export JDK and Android home vars, on macOS they are: (please contribute with Linux equivalent)
# replace <USERNAME> with your name
export ANDROID_HOME=/Users/<USERNAME>/Library/Android/sdk
export JAVA_HOME=/Applications/Android Studio.app/Contents/jbr/Contents/Home- Install NDK and CMake
cd ~/projects/android-client
$ANDROID_HOME/cmdline-tools/latest/bin/sdkmanager --install "ndk;23.1.7779620"Follow the steps to run locally until the step 5 then run the following steps:
- Build Go agent library
cd ~/projects/android-client
./build-android-lib.sh- Run gradlew
cd ~/projects/android-client/android
./gradlew bundleDebug -PversionCode=123 -PversionName=1.2.3
