# Building AliasVault Android App from Source
|
|
|
|
This guide explains how to build and install the AliasVault Android app from source code using React Native.
|
|
|
|
## Prerequisites
|
|
|
|
- MacOS or Windows machine with Android Studio installed
|
|
- Git to clone the repository
|
|
|
|
## Building the Android app
|
|
|
|
1. Clone the repository:
|
|
```bash
|
|
git clone https://github.com/aliasvault/aliasvault.git
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
2. Navigate to the mobile app directory:
|
|
```bash
|
|
cd aliasvault/apps/mobile-app
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
3. Install JavaScript dependencies:
|
|
```bash
|
|
npm install
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
4. Deploy release build to your device via React Native automatically:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
npx react-native run-android --mode release
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
5. For publishing to Google Play:
|
|
Create a local gradle file in your user directory where the keystore credentials will be placed
|
|
```bash
|
|
nano ~/.gradle/gradle.properties
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Input the following contents and input the correct password:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
ALIASVAULT_UPLOAD_STORE_FILE=aliasvault-upload-key.keystore # Path to the keystore file
|
|
ALIASVAULT_UPLOAD_KEY_ALIAS=aliasvault-key-alias # Replace with value of the `keystore.keyAlias`
|
|
ALIASVAULT_UPLOAD_STORE_PASSWORD=***** # Replace with the password to the keystore
|
|
ALIASVAULT_UPLOAD_KEY_PASSWORD=***** # Replace with the password to the keystore
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Then create the bundle for upload to Google Play:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
cd android
|
|
./gradlew app:bundleRelease
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The resulting .aab file will be available in:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
app/build/outputs/bundle/release
|
|
```
