This is the official Android app for OneBusAway!

OneBusAway for Android provides:

1. Real-time bus arrival information for public transit
2. A browse-able map of nearby stops
3. The ability to search for nearby stops or routes

OneBusAway for Android automatically keeps track of your most used stops and routes, and allows you to put shortcuts on your phone's Main Menu for any stop or route you choose.

It's available on the Play Store.

1. Set the JAVA_HOME environmental variables to point to your JDK folder (e.g. C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_27)

1. Download and install the latest version of Android Studio.
2. Run Android Studio (Windows users may need to Run as administator when installing Android SDK components).
3. At the welcome screen select Import Project, browse to the location of this repository and double-click it.
4. Open the Android SDK Manager (Tools->Andorid->SDK Manager) and under the currently used SDK version (see compileSdkVersion in onebusaway-android/build.gradle) add a checkmark next to Google APIs then select Install n packages. n may be 1 or more if other updates are available.
5. Connect a debugging enabled Android device to your computer or setup an Android Virtual Device (Tools->Andorid->AVD Manager).
6. Click the green play button (or Alt+Shift+F10) to build and run the project!

1. Download and install the Android SDK. Make sure to install the Google APIs for your API level (e.g. 17), the Android SDK Build-tools version for your buildToolsVersion version, the Android Support Repository and the Google Repository.
2. Set the ANDROID_HOME environmental variable to your Android SDK location.
3. To build and push the app to the device, run gradlew installDebug from the command line at the root of the project
4. To start the app, run adb shell am start -n com.joulespersecond.seattlebusbot/.HomeActivity (alternately, you can manually start the app)

To build a release build, you need to create a gradle.properties file that points to a secure.properties file, and a secure.properties file that points to your keystore and alias. The gradlew assembleRelease command will prompt for your keystore passphrase.

The gradle.properties file is located in the onebusaway-android directory and has the contents:

secure.properties=<full_path_to_secure_properties_file>

The secure.properties file (in the location specified in gradle.properties) has the contents:

key.store=<full_path_to_keystore_file>
key.alias=<key_alias_name>

Note that the paths in these files always use the Unix path separator /, even on Windows. If you use the Windows path separator \ you will get the error No value has been specified for property 'signingConfig.keyAlias'.

We welcome contributions to the project! Please see our Contributing Guide for details, including Code Style Guidelines and Template.

If you're using Android Studio v0.4.2 or lower, when importing, please be sure to select the settings.gradle file in the root, NOT the project directory. You will get the above error if you select the project directory / name of the project.

Open the Android SDK Manager and make sure the following are installed:

• Under Tools
  • Android SDK Tools
  • Android SDK Platform-tools
  • Android SDK Build-tools
• Under the currently used SDK version (see compileSdkVersion in onebusaway-android/build.gradle)
  • SDK Platform
  • Google APIs
• Extras
  • Android Support Repository
  • Android Support Library
  • Google Play services
  • Google Repository

Make sure that you're consistently using the same Android SDK throughout Android Studio and your environmental variables. Android Studio comes bundled with an Android SDK, and can get confused if you're pointing to this SDK within Android Studio but have your environmental variables pointed elsewhere. Click "File->Project Structure", and then under "Android SDK" make sure you "Android SDK Location" is the correct location of your Android SDK.

Also, make sure you've set the ANDROID_HOME environmental variable to your Android SDK location and the JAVA_HOME environmental variables to point to your JDK folder.
