Configure an existing Android project

These steps assume you have a project already created and a

libs

directory in that project. The

libs

directory must not be at the top level of your project. It must be at the same level as your

build.gradle

file.

Download and unzip the

BlackBerry Dynamics SDK

release .zip distribution package.

Download and unzip the

BlackBerry Dynamics Launcher Library

release .zip distribution package.

Copy GoodLauncherLibrary/launcherlib.aar to the project libs directory.

Make the following declarations in your

build.gradle

file, as shown in these snippets:

Declare a dependency on the

launcherlib.aar

library and

library:

 dependencies { 
   implementation(name: 'launcherlib', ext: 'aar' 
   implementation(name: 'gd', ext: 'aar')
 }

Add the following repositories for Blackberry Dynamics Launcher and

BlackBerry Dynamics SDK

components:


 repositories{ 
   //Copy launcherlib.aar inside app/libs folder
    flatDir {       
    dirs 'libs'      
    }
   //Maven url points to the local Dynamics SDK download folder path ex: gdsdk-release-<version>/m2repository/maven { url '<dynamics-sdk-root-folder>/m2repository' 
   }
 }

Add the

Android

support library dependencies:

 
   implementation 'androidx.legacy:legacy-support-v13:1.0.0' 
   implementation 'androidx.appcompat:appcompat:1.0.0' 
   implementation 'com.google.android.material:material:1.0.0' 
   implementation 'androidx.cardview:cardview:1.0.0'
   implementation 'androidx.constraintlayout:constraintlayout:1.1.3'
 }
