This toy tool is meant to extract:
- permission groups (name, icon, label, description)
- permissions (name, label, description, group, protection level)
from the AOSP sources and generate a JSON file containing information listed above in the locale you choose.
This tool uses the VectorDrawable2Svg script of Alessandro Lucchet which has been lightly modified.
This toy is only compatible with Python 3.x
First of all, you have to clone the huge AOSP repository and optionnaly remove useless content:
mkdir AOSP
git clone https://github.com/aosp-mirror/platform_frameworks_base.git AOSP
cd AOSP
rm -rf Android.bp Android.mk apct-tests api CleanSpec.mk cmds config data docs drm graphics keystore libs location lowpan media MODULE_LICENSE_APACHE2 native nfc-extras NOTICE obex opengl packages pathmap.mk PREUPLOAD.cfg proto rs samples sax services startop telecomm telephony test-base test-legacy test-mock test-runner tests tools vr wifi
pip install git+https://github.com/U039b/aosp_permissions_extraction.git
extract_required_permissions.py [path to AOSP folder] [2-letter locale] [destination folder]
the destination folder will be automatically created.
The dist folder versioned in this repository gives you an example of output in various locales.
