Fdroid Repository Tools

In the future we want to distribute our stable apps and the corresponding code alike. Feel free to test and use what is in our repository : http://fdroid.interoberlin.de
Tools : Build Automation with Jenkins #tt Session 2013/06/27
During this session we took a brake from working on our model boat project. This is partly caused by the explosion of model boat remote control…
We concentrated on our build processes which we want to use for Android and Raspberry alike. Today we focussed on deployment of Android apps. For that reason we installed fdroid on our server. Fdroid can be used as a Android repository for binaries as well as sources. Using the fdroid app we can receive the latest version of all apps we are working on.
Android app deployment automation
Whenever someone pushes any changes on an Android app to the source code management system a job on our continuous integration system Jenkins is triggered. This job fetches the latest sources and builds an Android apk file. After that the Jenkins job copies it to our fdroid repository and updates it.
Bolyde : Communication (sequel) #tt Session 2013/06/20
We are planning to achieve a simple communication between an Android device and a Raspberry Pi. At the end of the day we managed to send an HTTP GET from our Android phone which contain accelerometer values to the Raspberry which then outputs the values on.
Until next week we want to improve the scalabilty and the user interface of our app.
