latinime-android-studio's Introduction

Gradle build for LatinIME (Android Keyboard)

Develop LatinIME in Android Studio without a need to download and build whole AOSP.

Currently building LatinIME requires downloading and building whole Android sources. This requires tens of gigabytes of disk space and takes couple hours to complete. The aim of this project is to allow development of LatingIME using Android Studio, Android SDK and NDK.

Current status

This is still a work in progress. Currently building the Java part of the app works fine but you still need to build native libraries separately or extract them from existing APK. Building host tools (used to generate dictionaries) still requires some more work.

How to build LatinIME APK

  1. Checkout this build configuration:

     git clone https://github.com/iwo/LatinIME-Android-Studio.git .

  2. Checkout LatinIME sources to LatinIME subdirectory:

     git clone https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_packages_inputmethods_LatinIME.git LatinIME

  3. Checkout frameworks/opt/inputmethodcommon into inputmethodcommon:

     git clone https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_frameworks_opt_inputmethodcommon.git inputmethodcommon

  4. Import project into Android Studio

  5. Copy prebuild libjni_latinime.so to app/src/main/jniLibs/armeabi/libjni_latinime.so

  6. Remove LatinIME/java/res/values/strings-emoji-descriptions.xml (or fix encoding of the comments)

Enjoy your new Android Keyboard!

Hello! Thank you for this source! Project is build with no errors but it gives me the following error in runtime:

I put the libjni_latinime.so file in app - src- main- jniLibs but it gives me this error all the time! Please help me out solving this issue! Thank you!

add more language dictionaries

I managed to build the keyboard following your guide. I prebuild the libjni_latinime.so files using this git ( https://github.com/modricwang/ctrlaltdel-aosp-ime) after i have changed all references to the package name. This way i have avoided to download and build the whole AOSP tree.
Allthough i would like to add more language predict words , so i need the binary .dict files for greek and arabic language. How can i add them? do i really need to download the whole aosp to build the dicts using dicttool?
Any help is appreciated
