Android studio 2.2.2 lỗi gradle build running năm 2024

This guide will help set up your development environment for building Cordova apps for Android devices and optionally use Android-specific command-line tools within your development workflow.

You will need to install and set up the requirements regardless of whether you want to use the Android-specific command-line tools or Cordova CLI commands.

Android API Level Support

The supported (versions of Android) corresponding with the Cordova-Android released versions are listed in the table below:

cordova-android Version Supported Android API-Levels Equivalent Android Version 11.X.X 22 - 32 5.1 - 12.0.0 (L) 10.X.X 22 - 30 5.1 - 11.0.0 9.X.X 22 - 29 5.1 - 10.0.0 8.X.X 19 - 28 4.4 - 9.0.0 7.X.X 19 - 27 4.4 - 8.1 6.X.X 16 - 26 4.1 - 8.0.0 5.X.X 14 - 23 4.0 - 6.0.1 4.1.X 14 - 22 4.0 - 5.1 4.0.X 10 - 22 2.3.3 - 5.1 3.7.X 10 - 21 2.3.3 - 5.0.2

Note: The cordova-android versions listed above are not for the Cordova CLI.

To determine what version of the Cordova-Android package is installed in your Cordova project, run the command

export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/platform-tools/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/cmdline-tools/latest/bin/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/emulator/

7 in your project's root directory.

As a general rule, Android versions become unsupported by Cordova as they dip below 5% on Google's distribution dashboard.

System Requirements

Cordova-Android requires the Android SDK, which can be installed on either macOS, Linux, or Windows.

For the base system requirements, see the Android Studio's .

The Required Software & Tools

Java Development Kit (JDK)

If you are using

export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/platform-tools/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/cmdline-tools/latest/bin/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/emulator/

8 10.0.0 or greater, install the Java Development Kit (JDK) 11.

If you are using any version below

export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/platform-tools/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/cmdline-tools/latest/bin/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/emulator/

8 10.0.0, install the Java Development Kit (JDK) 8.

The

C:\Users\[your user]\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\platform-tools
C:\Users\[your user]\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\cmdline-tools\latest\bin
C:\Users\[your user]\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\tools\emulator

0 environment variable must be set according to your JDK installation path. See the section on how to set up environment variables. Alternatively as of

export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/platform-tools/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/cmdline-tools/latest/bin/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/emulator/

8 10.0.0 or greater,

C:\Users\[your user]\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\platform-tools
C:\Users\[your user]\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\cmdline-tools\latest\bin
C:\Users\[your user]\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\tools\emulator

2 can be set in place of

C:\Users\[your user]\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\platform-tools
C:\Users\[your user]\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\cmdline-tools\latest\bin
C:\Users\[your user]\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\tools\emulator

0, allowing a JDK install to be used specifically for Cordova development.

Gradle

As of Cordova-Android 6.4.0, Gradle is required to be installed.

When installing on Windows, you need to add the path to the Gradle's binary directory to your

C:\Users\[your user]\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\platform-tools
C:\Users\[your user]\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\cmdline-tools\latest\bin
C:\Users\[your user]\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\tools\emulator

4 environment variable. See ) on how to configure system environment variables.

Note: This is the system's Gradle version. The system's Gradle binary will create the Gradle Wrapper file that declares and obtains the appropriate version of Gradle needed for building the Android application. The system-level and project-level version of Gradle may not and does not need to match. The project-level's version of Gradle is defined in the Cordova-Android's package and set based on what Android supports.

Android Studio

Download and install Android Studio. Follow the instructions at the linked Android Developer site to get started.

Opening Android Studio for the first time will guide you through the process of installing the Android SDK packages.

Adding SDK Packages

It is recommended to install the highest supported version of the SDK Platform and Build Tools based on the project's installed version of Cordova-Android. Please see the to find the supported version based on the Cordova-Android versions.

In the Android Studio, open the SDK Manager (

C:\Users\[your user]\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\platform-tools
C:\Users\[your user]\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\cmdline-tools\latest\bin
C:\Users\[your user]\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\tools\emulator

  1. and confirm that the following are installed for the targeted version of Android.:
  • Android's SDK Platform for your targeted API Level
  • Android SDK Build-Tools under the SDK Tools tab, for the targeted version.

Android SDK Tools

In Android Studio 3.6 or later, the obsolete Android SDK Tools will need to be intalled. To do this:

  1. Open the Android Studio
  2. Open the SDK Manager (

    C:\Users[your user]\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\platform-tools C:\Users[your user]\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\cmdline-tools\latest\bin C:\Users[your user]\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\tools\emulator

    5)
  3. Navigate to the SDK Tools tab
  4. Uncheck

    C:\Users[your user]\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\platform-tools C:\Users[your user]\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\cmdline-tools\latest\bin C:\Users[your user]\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\tools\emulator

    7
  5. Check

    C:\Users[your user]\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\platform-tools C:\Users[your user]\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\cmdline-tools\latest\bin C:\Users[your user]\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\tools\emulator

    8

See Android's documentation on how to for more details.

Setting environment variables

Cordova's CLI requires specific environment variables so it can function correctly. If the environment variables are missing, the CLI will attempt to resolve the variable temporarily. If the missing variables fail to resolve, they must be set manually.

The following variables must be set:

  • C:\Users[your user]\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\platform-tools C:\Users[your user]\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\cmdline-tools\latest\bin C:\Users[your user]\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\tools\emulator

    0 - The environment variable to the location of your JDK installation
  • export ORG_GRADLE_PROJECT_cdvMinSdkVersion=20 cordova build android

    0 - The environment variable to the location of your Android SDK installation

It is also recommended to update the

  export ORG_GRADLE_PROJECT_cdvMinSdkVersion=20
  cordova build android

1 environment variable to include the following directories.

  • export ORG_GRADLE_PROJECT_cdvMinSdkVersion=20 cordova build android

    2
  • export ORG_GRADLE_PROJECT_cdvMinSdkVersion=20 cordova build android

    3
  • export ORG_GRADLE_PROJECT_cdvMinSdkVersion=20 cordova build android

    4
  • export ORG_GRADLE_PROJECT_cdvMinSdkVersion=20 cordova build android

    5

    • This is required for the
       export ORG_GRADLE_PROJECT_cdvMinSdkVersion=20  
       cordova build android  
      

      6 and

       export ORG_GRADLE_PROJECT_cdvMinSdkVersion=20  
       cordova build android  
      
      7 tools.

Note: The directories above are generally located in the Android SDK ROOT.

macOS and Linux

On a Mac or Linux, with a text editor, create or modify the

  export ORG_GRADLE_PROJECT_cdvMinSdkVersion=20
  cordova build android

8 file.

To set an environment variable, add a line that uses

  export ORG_GRADLE_PROJECT_cdvMinSdkVersion=20
  cordova build android

9 like so (substitute the path with your local installation):

export ANDROID_SDK_ROOT=/Development/android-sdk/

To update your

  export ORG_GRADLE_PROJECT_cdvMinSdkVersion=20
  cordova build android

1, add a line resembling the following (substitute the paths with your local Android SDK installation's location):

export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/platform-tools/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/cmdline-tools/latest/bin/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/emulator/

Reload your terminal to see this change reflected or run the following command:

Windows

These steps may vary depending on your installed version of Windows. Close and reopen any command prompt windows after making changes to see them reflected.

  1. Click on the Start menu or Press on the Windows Key (Win)
  2. Type in the search bar

    cordova run android -- --gradleArg=-PcdvMinSdkVersion=20

    1
  3. Select Edit the system environment variables options
  4. Click on the Environment Variables… button in the window that appears.
To create a new environment variable
  1. Click on the New… button
  2. Type in the Variable name
  3. Type in the Variable value
  4. Click on the OK button
To set your PATH
  1. Select PATH from the liste of already defined variable
  2. Click on the Edit… button
  3. Click on the New button
  4. Type in the relevant location.

Repeat step 3 and 4 until all paths are added.

Example paths (substitute the paths with your local Android SDK installation's location):

C:\Users\[your user]\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\platform-tools
C:\Users\[your user]\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\cmdline-tools\latest\bin
C:\Users\[your user]\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\tools\emulator

Once all paths are added, click the OK button until all opened windows for setting & editing environment variables are closed.

Project Configuration

Setting up an Emulator

If you wish to run your Cordova app on an Android emulator, you will first need to create an Android Virtual Device (AVD).

See the following Android documentation for more details on:

  • Create and manage virtual devices
  • Configure hardware acceleration for the Android Emulator.

Once your AVD is configured correctly, you should be able to deploy your Cordova application to the emulator by running the following command:

Configuring Gradle

Cordova-Android projects are built by using Gradle.

Setting Gradle Properties

It is possible to configure the Gradle build by setting the values of certain Gradle properties that Cordova exposes.

The following properties are available:

Property Description

  cordova run android -- --gradleArg=-PcdvMinSdkVersion=20

2 Sets the version of the

  cordova run android -- --gradleArg=-PcdvMinSdkVersion=20

3 library.

  cordova run android -- --gradleArg=-PcdvMinSdkVersion=20

4 Sets the version of the

  cordova run android -- --gradleArg=-PcdvMinSdkVersion=20

5 library.

  cordova run android -- --gradleArg=-PcdvMinSdkVersion=20

6 Overrides the build architecture of which the app is built for. The default value is automatically detected by Cordova's build script.

  cordova run android -- --gradleArg=-PcdvMinSdkVersion=20

7 If this is set, then multiple APK files will be generated: One per native platform supported by library projects (x86, ARM, etc). This can be important if your project uses large native libraries, which can drastically increase the size of the generated APK. If not set, then a single APK will be generated which can be used on all devices

  cordova run android -- --gradleArg=-PcdvMinSdkVersion=20

8 Overrides the automatically detected

  cordova run android -- --gradleArg=-PcdvMinSdkVersion=20

9 value

  ext.cdvMinSdkVersion = 20

0 Sets the SDK version of the framework which the app is been compiled for. Setting will override the automatic detection of the

  ext.cdvMinSdkVersion = 20

1 value.

  ext.cdvMinSdkVersion = 20

2 Default:

  ext.cdvMinSdkVersion = 20

3 Path to a .properties file that contains signing information for debug builds (see ). Useful when you need to share a signing key with other developers

ext.postBuildExtras = {
    android.buildTypes.debug.applicationIdSuffix = '.debug'
}

4 Whether to append a 0 "abi digit" to versionCode when only a single APK is build.

You can set these properties in one of four ways:

  • Using an Environment Variables:

    Example:

    export ORG_GRADLE_PROJECT_cdvMinSdkVersion=20 cordova build android

  • Using the // Example build-extras.gradle // This file is included at the beginning of `build.gradle // special properties (see build.gradle) can be set and overwrite the defaults ext.cdvDebugSigningPropertiesFile = '../../android-debug-keys.properties' // normal build.gradle configuration can happen android { defaultConfig {
    testInstrumentationRunner 'android.support.test.runner.AndroidJUnitRunner'  
    
    } } dependencies { androidTestImplementation 'com.android.support.test.espresso:espresso-core:2.2.2', {
    exclude group: 'com.android.support', module: 'support-annotations'  
    
    } } // When set, this function ext.postBuildExtras allows code to run at the end of build.gradle ext.postBuildExtras = {
    android.buildTypes.debug.applicationIdSuffix = '.debug'  
    
    } `

    5 flag with the Cordova

    // Example build-extras.gradle // This file is included at the beginning of `build.gradle // special properties (see build.gradle) can be set and overwrite the defaults ext.cdvDebugSigningPropertiesFile = '../../android-debug-keys.properties' // normal build.gradle configuration can happen android { defaultConfig {
    testInstrumentationRunner 'android.support.test.runner.AndroidJUnitRunner'  
    
    } } dependencies { androidTestImplementation 'com.android.support.test.espresso:espresso-core:2.2.2', {
    exclude group: 'com.android.support', module: 'support-annotations'  
    
    } } // When set, this function ext.postBuildExtras allows code to run at the end of build.gradle ext.postBuildExtras = {
    android.buildTypes.debug.applicationIdSuffix = '.debug'  
    
    } `

    6 or

    // Example build-extras.gradle // This file is included at the beginning of `build.gradle // special properties (see build.gradle) can be set and overwrite the defaults ext.cdvDebugSigningPropertiesFile = '../../android-debug-keys.properties' // normal build.gradle configuration can happen android { defaultConfig {
    testInstrumentationRunner 'android.support.test.runner.AndroidJUnitRunner'  
    
    } } dependencies { androidTestImplementation 'com.android.support.test.espresso:espresso-core:2.2.2', {

    } `

    7 command: Example:

    cordova run android -- --gradleArg=-PcdvMinSdkVersion=20

  • Creating a // Example build-extras.gradle // This file is included at the beginning of `build.gradle // special properties (see build.gradle) can be set and overwrite the defaults ext.cdvDebugSigningPropertiesFile = '../../android-debug-keys.properties' // normal build.gradle configuration can happen android { defaultConfig {
    testInstrumentationRunner 'android.support.test.runner.AndroidJUnitRunner'  
    
    } } dependencies { androidTestImplementation 'com.android.support.test.espresso:espresso-core:2.2.2', {
    exclude group: 'com.android.support', module: 'support-annotations'  
    
    } } // When set, this function ext.postBuildExtras allows code to run at the end of build.gradle ext.postBuildExtras = {
    android.buildTypes.debug.applicationIdSuffix = '.debug'  
    
    } `

    8 in the project's Android platform directory Create a file named

    // Example build-extras.gradle // This file is included at the beginning of `build.gradle // special properties (see build.gradle) can be set and overwrite the defaults ext.cdvDebugSigningPropertiesFile = '../../android-debug-keys.properties' // normal build.gradle configuration can happen android { defaultConfig {

    } } dependencies { androidTestImplementation 'com.android.support.test.espresso:espresso-core:2.2.2', {
    exclude group: 'com.android.support', module: 'support-annotations'  
    
    } } // When set, this function ext.postBuildExtras allows code to run at the end of build.gradle ext.postBuildExtras = {
    android.buildTypes.debug.applicationIdSuffix = '.debug'  
    
    } `

    8 in the directory

    0 with the contents such as: Example File Contents:
  • with the `build-extras.gradle file

    Create a file named

    2 in the directory

    3 with the contents such as:

    ext.cdvMinSdkVersion = 20

The latter two options both involve including an extra file in your Android platform folder. In general, it is discouraged to edit the contents of this folder because it is easy for those changes to be lost or overwritten. Instead, these files should be copied into the folder as part of the build command by using the


4 hook script.

Extending build.gradle

If you need to customize the


1 file, rather than edit it directly, it is recommended to create a sibling file named


2. This file will be included by the main


1 script when present. This file must be placed in the


8 folder of the Android's platform directory (


9). It is recommended to use the


4 hook script to copy this file over.

Here's an example:

// Example build-extras.gradle
// This file is included at the beginning of `build.gradle`
// special properties (see `build.gradle`) can be set and overwrite the defaults
ext.cdvDebugSigningPropertiesFile = '../../android-debug-keys.properties'
// normal `build.gradle` configuration can happen
android {
  defaultConfig {
    testInstrumentationRunner 'android.support.test.runner.AndroidJUnitRunner'
  }
}
dependencies {
  androidTestImplementation 'com.android.support.test.espresso:espresso-core:2.2.2', {
    exclude group: 'com.android.support', module: 'support-annotations'
  }
}
// When set, this function `ext.postBuildExtras` allows code to run at the end of `build.gradle`
ext.postBuildExtras = {
    android.buildTypes.debug.applicationIdSuffix = '.debug'
}

Note that plugins can also include


2 files via:


Configuring Gradle JVM Args

To change the Gradle JVM args, the

cordova build android -- --jvmargs='-Xmx4g'

2 flag can be used with both Cordova's

// Example build-extras.gradle
// This file is included at the beginning of `build.gradle`
// special properties (see `build.gradle`) can be set and overwrite the defaults
ext.cdvDebugSigningPropertiesFile = '../../android-debug-keys.properties'
// normal `build.gradle` configuration can happen
android {
  defaultConfig {
    testInstrumentationRunner 'android.support.test.runner.AndroidJUnitRunner'
  }
}
dependencies {
  androidTestImplementation 'com.android.support.test.espresso:espresso-core:2.2.2', {
    exclude group: 'com.android.support', module: 'support-annotations'
  }
}
// When set, this function `ext.postBuildExtras` allows code to run at the end of `build.gradle`
ext.postBuildExtras = {
    android.buildTypes.debug.applicationIdSuffix = '.debug'
}

6 and

// Example build-extras.gradle
// This file is included at the beginning of `build.gradle`
// special properties (see `build.gradle`) can be set and overwrite the defaults
ext.cdvDebugSigningPropertiesFile = '../../android-debug-keys.properties'
// normal `build.gradle` configuration can happen
android {
  defaultConfig {
    testInstrumentationRunner 'android.support.test.runner.AndroidJUnitRunner'
  }
}
dependencies {
  androidTestImplementation 'com.android.support.test.espresso:espresso-core:2.2.2', {
    exclude group: 'com.android.support', module: 'support-annotations'
  }
}
// When set, this function `ext.postBuildExtras` allows code to run at the end of `build.gradle`
ext.postBuildExtras = {
    android.buildTypes.debug.applicationIdSuffix = '.debug'
}

7 commands. This is mostly useful for controlling how much memory gradle is allowed to use during the build process. It is recommended to allow at least 2048 MB.

By default, JVM args has a value of

cordova build android -- --jvmargs='-Xmx4g'

5. To increase the maximum allowed memory, use the

cordova build android -- --jvmargs='-Xmx4g'

6 JVM arg. Example given below:

cordova build android -- --jvmargs='-Xmx4g'

The following units are supported:

unit value example kilobyte k

cordova build android -- --jvmargs='-Xmx4g'

7 megabyte m

cordova build android -- --jvmargs='-Xmx4g'

5 gigabyte g

cordova build android -- --jvmargs='-Xmx4g'

Setting the Version Code

To change the version code for your app's generated apk, set the

versionCode = MAJOR * 10000 + MINOR * 100 + PATCH

0 attribute in the

versionCode = MAJOR * 10000 + MINOR * 100 + PATCH

1 element of your application's config.xml file.

If the

versionCode = MAJOR * 10000 + MINOR * 100 + PATCH

0 is not set, the version code will be determined using the

versionCode = MAJOR * 10000 + MINOR * 100 + PATCH

3 attribute. For example, if the version is

versionCode = MAJOR * 10000 + MINOR * 100 + PATCH

4:

versionCode = MAJOR * 10000 + MINOR * 100 + PATCH

If your application has enabled the

  cordova run android -- --gradleArg=-PcdvMinSdkVersion=20

7 Gradle property (see ), the version code of your app will also be multiplied by 10 so that the last digit of the code can be used to indicate the architecture the apk was built for. This multiplication will happen regardless of whether the version code is taken from the

versionCode = MAJOR * 10000 + MINOR * 100 + PATCH

0 attribute or generated using the

versionCode = MAJOR * 10000 + MINOR * 100 + PATCH

3.

Note: Be aware that some plugins added to your project may set this Gradle property automatically.

Note: When updating the

versionCode = MAJOR * 10000 + MINOR * 100 + PATCH

0 property, it is not recommended to increment the version code taken from built apks. It is recommended to increment the code based off the value in your

versionCode = MAJOR * 10000 + MINOR * 100 + PATCH

9 file's

versionCode = MAJOR * 10000 + MINOR * 100 + PATCH

0 attribute. This is because the

  cordova run android -- --gradleArg=-PcdvMinSdkVersion=20

7 property causes the version code to be multiplied by 10 in the built apks and thus using that value will cause your next version code to be 100 times the original, etc.

Signing an App

It is recommended to read Android's documentation for Sign your app first, as it contains the necessary steps in creating required files for signing.

Using Flags

To sign an app, you need the following parameters:

Parameter Flag Description Keystore

export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/platform-tools/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/cmdline-tools/latest/bin/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/emulator/

02 Path to a binary file which can hold a set of keys Keystore Password

export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/platform-tools/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/cmdline-tools/latest/bin/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/emulator/

03 Password to the keystore Alias

export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/platform-tools/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/cmdline-tools/latest/bin/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/emulator/

04 The id specifying the private key used for signing Password

export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/platform-tools/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/cmdline-tools/latest/bin/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/emulator/

05 Password for the private key specified Type of the Keystore

export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/platform-tools/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/cmdline-tools/latest/bin/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/emulator/

7 commands.

Note: You should use double

export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/platform-tools/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/cmdline-tools/latest/bin/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/emulator/

12 to indicate that these are platform-specific arguments.

Example:

export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/platform-tools/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/cmdline-tools/latest/bin/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/emulator/

13.

Using

export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/platform-tools/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/cmdline-tools/latest/bin/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/emulator/

14

Alternatively, you could specify the signing parameters in a build configuration file (

export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/platform-tools/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/cmdline-tools/latest/bin/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/emulator/

14).

By default, if the

export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/platform-tools/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/cmdline-tools/latest/bin/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/emulator/

14 file exists in the project's root directory, it will automatically be detected and used. If the file is not located in the project's root directory or has multiple configuration files, the command line argument

export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/platform-tools/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/cmdline-tools/latest/bin/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/emulator/

17 must be supplied with the path to the file.

Example

export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/platform-tools/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/cmdline-tools/latest/bin/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/emulator/

14 configuration file:

export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/platform-tools/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/cmdline-tools/latest/bin/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/emulator/

0

There is also support to mix and match command line arguments and parameters in

export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/platform-tools/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/cmdline-tools/latest/bin/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/emulator/

14. Values from the command line arguments takes precedence. This can be useful for specifying passwords on the command line.

Using Gradle

You can also specify signing properties by including a

export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/platform-tools/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/cmdline-tools/latest/bin/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/emulator/

20 file and pointing to it with the

  ext.cdvMinSdkVersion = 20

8 and

  ext.cdvMinSdkVersion = 20

2 Gradle properties (see ).

Example file content:

export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/platform-tools/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/cmdline-tools/latest/bin/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/emulator/

1

The

export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/platform-tools/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/cmdline-tools/latest/bin/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/emulator/

23 and

export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/platform-tools/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/cmdline-tools/latest/bin/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/emulator/

24 properties are required for automated signing.

Debugging

For details on the debugging tools that come packaged with the Android SDK, see Android's developer documentation for debugging. Additionally, Android's developer documentation for debugging web apps provides an introduction for debugging the portion of your app running in the Webview.

Opening a Project in Android Studio

Cordova-Android projects can be opened in Android Studio. This can be useful if you wish to use Android Studio's built in Android debugging and profiling tools or if you are developing Android plugins.

Note: When opening your project in Android Studio, it is recommended to NOT edit the code within the IDE. Editing in Android Studio will edit code residing in the

export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/platform-tools/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/cmdline-tools/latest/bin/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/emulator/

25 directory of your project. It is not updating the code in the projects root

export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/platform-tools/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/cmdline-tools/latest/bin/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/emulator/

26)directory. The changes are liable to be overwritten. Instead, edit the

export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/platform-tools/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/cmdline-tools/latest/bin/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/emulator/

26 folder and copy over your changes by running

export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/platform-tools/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/cmdline-tools/latest/bin/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/emulator/

28.

Plugin developers wishing to edit their native code in Android Studio should use the

export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/platform-tools/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/cmdline-tools/latest/bin/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/emulator/

29 flag when adding their plugin to the project with the

export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/platform-tools/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/cmdline-tools/latest/bin/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/emulator/

30. This will create a symbolic link of the plugin files from the plugin source directory to the project's

export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/platform-tools/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/cmdline-tools/latest/bin/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/emulator/

25 directory.

Lifecycle Guide

Cordova and Android

Native Android apps typically consist of a series of activities that the user interacts with. Activities can be thought of as the individual screens that make up an application; different tasks in an app will often have their own activity. Each activity has its own lifecycle that is maintained as the activity enters and leaves the foreground of a user's device.

In contrast, Cordova applications on the Android platform are executed within a Webview that is embedded in a single Android activity. The lifecycle of this activity is exposed to your application through the document events that are fired. The events are not guaranteed to line up with Android's lifecycle, but they can provide guidelines for saving and restoring your state. These events roughly map to Android callbacks as follows:

40 Application is returning to the foreground

Most other Cordova platforms have a similar concept of lifecycles and should fire these same events when similar actions happen on a user's device. However, Android presents some unique challenges that can sometimes show up thanks to the native Activity lifecycle.

What makes Android different?

In Android, the OS can choose to kill activities in the background in order to free up resources if the device is low on memory. Unfortunately, when the activity holding your application is killed, the Webview in which your application lives will be destroyed as well. Any state that your application is maintaining will be lost in this case. When the user navigates back to your application, the Activity and Webview will be recreated by the OS, but state will not be automatically restored for your Cordova app. For this reason, it is imperative that your application be aware of the lifecycle events that are fired and maintain whatever state is appropriate to make sure a user's context in your app is not lost when they leave the application.

When can this happen?

Your application is susceptible to being destroyed by the OS whenever it leaves the sight of the user. There are two main situations in which this can occur. The first and most obvious case is when the user presses the home button or switches to another application.

However, there is a second (and much more subtle) case that certain plugins can introduce. As noted above, Cordova applications are usually confined to the single activity that contains the Webview. However, there are instances in which other activities may be launched by plugins and temporarily push the Cordova activity to the background. These other Activities are typically launched in order to perform a specific task using a native application installed on the device. For example, the Cordova camera plugin launches whatever camera activity is natively installed on the device in order to take a photo. Reusing the installed camera application in this way makes your application feel much more like a native app when the user tries to take a photo. Unfortunately, when the native Activity pushes your app to the background there is a chance the OS will kill it.

For a clearer understanding of this second case, let's walk through an example using the camera plugin. Imagine you have an application that requires the user to take a profile photo. The flow of events in the application when everything goes as planned will look something like this:

  1. The user is interacting with your app and needs to take a picture
  2. The camera plugin launches the native camera activity
    • The Cordova activity is pushed to the background (pause event is fired)
  3. The user takes a photo
  4. The camera activity finishes
    • The Cordova activity is moved to the foreground (resume event is fired)
  5. The user is returned to your application where they left off

However, this flow of events can be disrupted if a device is low on memory. If the Activity is killed by the OS, the above sequence of events instead plays out as follows:

  1. The user is interacting with your app and needs to take a picture
  2. The camera plugin launches the native camera activity
    • The OS destroys the Cordova activity (pause event is fired)
  3. The user takes a photo
  4. The camera activity finishes
    • The OS recreates the Cordova activity (deviceready and resume events are fired)
  5. The user is confused as to why they are suddenly back at your app's login screen

In this instance, the OS killed the application in the background and the application did not maintain its state as part of the lifecycle. When the user returned to the app, the Webview was recreated and the app appeared to have restarted from scratch (hence the user's confusion). This sequence of events is equivalent to what happens when the home button is pressed or the user switches applications. The key to preventing the above experience is subscribing to events and properly maintaining state as part of the activity lifecycle.

Respecting the Lifecycle

In the examples above, the javascript events that are fired are noted in italics. These events are your opportunity to save and restore your application's state. You should register callbacks in your application's

export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/platform-tools/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/cmdline-tools/latest/bin/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/emulator/

41 function that respond to the lifecycle events by saving state. What information you save and how you save it is left to your discretion, but you should be sure to save enough information so that you can restore the user to exactly where they left off when they return to your application.

There is one additional factor in the example above that only applies in the second-discussed situation (i.e. when a plugin launches an external activity). Not only was the state of the application lost when the user finished taking a photo, but so was the photo that the user took. Normally, that photo would be delivered to your application through the callback that was registered with the camera plugin. However, when the Webview was destroyed that callback was lost forever. Luckily, cordova-android 5.1.0 and above provide a means for getting the result of that plugin call when your application resumes.

Retrieving plugin callback results (cordova-android 5.1.0+)

When the OS destroys the Cordova activity that was pushed into the background by a plugin, any pending callbacks are lost as well. This means that if you passed a callback to the plugin that launched the new activity (e.g. the camera plugin), that callback will NOT be fired when the application is recreated. However, starting in cordova-android 5.1.0, the

export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/platform-tools/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/cmdline-tools/latest/bin/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/emulator/

39 event's payload will contain any pending plugin results from the plugin request that launched the external activity made prior to the activity being destroyed.

The payload for the

export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/platform-tools/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/cmdline-tools/latest/bin/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/emulator/

39 event adheres to the following format:

export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/platform-tools/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/cmdline-tools/latest/bin/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/emulator/

The fields of that payload are defined as follows:

  • export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/platform-tools/ export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/cmdline-tools/latest/bin/ export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/emulator/

    44: The name of the plugin returning the result (e.g. "Camera"). This can be found in the

    export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/platform-tools/ export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/cmdline-tools/latest/bin/ export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/emulator/

Android Quirks

The default API level in the Cordova-Android platform has been upgraded. On an Android 9 device, clear text communication is now disabled by default.

By default HTTP and FTP etc. will refuse the apps requests to use cleartext traffic. The key reason for avoiding cleartext traffic is the lack of confidentiality, authenticity, and protections against tampering; a network attacker can eavesdrop on transmitted data and also modify it without being detected. You can learn more about the

export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/platform-tools/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/cmdline-tools/latest/bin/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/emulator/

67 or any other android application elements setting in the documentation for Android developers.

To allow clear text communication again, set the

export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/platform-tools/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/cmdline-tools/latest/bin/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/emulator/

67 on your application tag to true in

versionCode = MAJOR * 10000 + MINOR * 100 + PATCH

9 file:

export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/platform-tools/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/cmdline-tools/latest/bin/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/emulator/

5

And also you need to add Android XML namespace

export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/platform-tools/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/cmdline-tools/latest/bin/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/emulator/

70 to your widget tag in the same

versionCode = MAJOR * 10000 + MINOR * 100 + PATCH

9.

Example:

export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/platform-tools/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/cmdline-tools/latest/bin/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/emulator/

Android Manifest Information

You can learn more about the Android manifest information in the documentation for Android developers.

Testing the Activity Lifecycle

Android provides a developer setting for testing Activity destruction on low memory. Enable the "Don't keep activities" setting in the Developer Options menu on your device or emulator to simulate low memory scenarios. You should always do some amount of testing with this setting enabled to make sure that your application is properly maintaining state.
