Plan: Fix Android Compilation

Context

The repository was recently restructured (PR #947 repo-restructure), moving the Android project from the repo root to clients/android/. Several path references in build files were updated in commit 6d7d339d, but remaining issues prevent successful compilation. The current branch is fix-android-compilation.

Phase 1: Fix build configuration

  • 1a. Create clients/android/local.properties with sdk.dir — already exists locally.
  • 1b. Copy google-services.json.template → google-services.json in clients/android/app/ (gitignored, local dev placeholder).
  • 1c. Fix .env path in clients/android/app/build.gradle line 16: ../.env → ../../.env.
  • 1d. Fix keystore paths in clients/android/app/build.gradle lines 31, 37: replaced Windows backslash separators with forward slashes.

Phase 2: Clean up stale root directory

  • 2a. Delete the root android/ directory (old build artifacts: .gradle/, .idea/, build/ caches). Removed 936K of stale files.

Phase 3: Verification

  • 3a. Run cd clients/android && ./gradlew assembleDebug — initial run revealed CMake path errors: REPO_ROOT_DIR in CMakeLists.txt and xptools.cmake used CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR which resolved incorrectly after the repo restructure. Fixed both to use CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR. Build then completed successfully.
  • 3b. APK generated at clients/android/app/build/outputs/apk/debug/app-debug.apk (~121 MB).

Files to Modify

  1. clients/android/local.properties — create (not committed, gitignored) ✅
  2. clients/android/app/google-services.json — copy from template (not committed, gitignored)
  3. clients/android/app/build.gradle — fix .env path (line 16) and keystore paths (lines 31, 37)
  4. Root android/ — delete stale directory
