Unix (Linux/Mac)

Install rustup and cargo install cargo-limit, then run:

make

Windows

Install rustup and follow the instructions.

If you get the error "VCRUNTIME140.dll was not found", then install Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable.

Android

Make sure you have podman installed. Then run:

# You only need to build the container once
podman build -t apk .

make android

To debug any issues, you can enter an interactive terminal using make podman-cli.

To delete everything, run podman system reset.

Users who prefer to build locally can follow the commands in the Dockerfile. Note that the build.rs hardcodes the SDK/NDK paths so either you follow it exactly (recommended) or modify build.rs.

ADB Over Wifi

Useful for reading the logs without having to be plugged in. First get your local IP addr using adb shell ip -f inet a show wlan0. Make sure "Wireless debugging" is enabled in Developer options. Then run:

adb tcpip 5555
adb connect IPADDR

Copying the APK takes a long time over wifi so best to install APK via USB, then use this just for debugging the app.

In the Makefile, make sure to put the USB device for ADB_DEVICES so the ADB commands work over USB.

Useful Dev Commands

This is just for devs. Users ignore this.

Debugging Missing Symbols

"hb_ft_font_create_referenced"

nm libharfbuzz_rs-5d6b743170eb0207.rlib | grep hb_ | less

Resolve Dependency Issues

cargo tree --target aarch64-linux-android --invert openssl-sys

Examine the APK

apktool d target/android-artifacts/release/apk/darkwallet.apk -o dw-apk
