Compile Go Android Jar package

Preparation work:

• Download android-ndk. Website: https://developer.android.com/ndk/downloads

mkdir -p ${HOME}/android
curl https://dl.google.com/android/repository/android-ndk-r24-linux.zip -o android-ndk-r24.zip
unzip android-ndk-r24.zip && mv android-ndk-r24 ${HOME}/android

• Download android-sdk. (android-sdk is downloaded indirectly through the commandlinetools tool).

Website: https://developer.android.com/studio, select Command line tools Among the download items

mkdir -p  ${HOME}/android/android-sdk

# Download Tools
curl https://dl.google.com/android/repository/commandlinetools-linux-8512546_latest.zip -o commandlinetools.zip
unzip commandlinetools.zip
mv cmdline-tools ${HOME}/android/android-sdk

# Download Android SDK
${HOME}/android/android-sdk/cmdline-tools/bin/sdkmanager "platform-tools" "platforms;android-23" --sdk_root=${HOME}/android/android-sdk/cmdline-tools

Note: 23 in android-23 is the API level. This corresponds to Android6.0. For Android10, android-29 is required. Decide which API level Android version to use

• Install gomobile and gobind. After upgrading the go version to go1.16 or above, execute the command:

go install golang.org/x/mobile/cmd/gomobile@latest
go install golang.org/x/mobile/cmd/gobind@latest

• Clear the local go-build cache, the directory is ~/.cache/go-build
  

• ##Compile makefile

  
  

// Compile demo/makefile

# config
export ANDROID_HOME=${HOME}/android/android-sdk/cmdline-tools
export ANDROID_NDK_HOME=${HOME}/android/android-ndk-r24
export TOOL=${HOME}/android/android-ndk-r24

android: depend
    gomobile bind -target=android/arm64 -androidapi=23 -o device.aar -v -x ${HOME}/demo

ios: depend
    gomobile bind -target=ios -o device.framework -v ${HOME}/demo

depend:
    cd ${HOME}/demo
    gomobile init
    go get golang.org/x/mobile/bind

clean:
    rm -rvf libdevice.*

androidapi is the API version, target is the CPU architecture

// Source code demo/demo.go

// demo.go
package demo

import (
    "fmt"
    "io/ioutil"
    "path/filepath"
    "time"
)

var done = make(chan struct{})

func Start(dir string) {
    fmt.Println("dir", dir)

    file := filepath.Join(dir, "test.log")
    err := ioutil.WriteFile(file, []byte(time.Now().String()), 0666)
    if err != nil {
        fmt.Printf("Writefile:%v\n", err)
    }
    select {
    case <-done:
    case <-time.After(10 * time.Minute):
    }
}

func Stop(mac string) {
    fmt.Println("stop mac", mac)
    close(done)
}

Compile Go Android executable program

Preparation work :

• Download android-ndk. URL:

  https://developer.android.com/ndk /downloads

##

mkdir -p ${HOME}/android
curl https://dl.google.com/android/repository/android-ndk-r24-linux.zip -o android-ndk-r24.zip
unzip android-ndk-r24.zip && mv android-ndk-r24 ${HOME}/android

Download android-sdk

export ARCH=arm
export NDK_ROOT=${HOME}/android/ndk-toolchain/${ARCH}
python ${HOME}/android/android-ndk-r24/build/tools/make_standalone_toolchain.py --arch $ARCH --api 22 --install-dir $NDK_ROOT

arch Specify the target compilation architecture {arm, arm64,x86,x86_64}, api, specify the Android API version

Compile

export CC=${HOME}/android/ndk-toolchain/arm/bin/arm-linux-androideabi-gcc
export GOOS=android
export GOARCH=arm
export GOARM=7
export CGO_ENABLED=1

go build -x main.go

The main.go here is just a simple Go program.
