# OpenKeychain (for Android)

OpenKeychain is an OpenPGP implementation for Android.  
For a more detailed description and installation instructions go to http://www.openkeychain.org .

### Branches
* The development of OpenKeychain happens in the "master" branch.
* For every release a new branch, e.g., "3.2-fixes" is created to backport fixes from "master"

### Travis CI Build Status of master branch

## How to help the project?

### Translate the application

Translations are managed at Transifex, please contribute there at https://www.transifex.com/projects/p/open-keychain/

### Contribute Code

1. Lookout for interesting issues on Github. We have tagged issues were we explicitly like to see contributions: https://github.com/open-keychain/open-keychain/labels/help-wanted
2. Read this README, especially the notes about coding style
3. Fork OpenKeychain and contribute code (the best part :sunglasses: )
4. Open a pull request on Github. We will help with occuring problems and merge your changes back into the main project.
5. PROFIT

### For bigger changes

1. Join the development mailinglist at http://groups.google.com/d/forum/openpgp-keychain-dev
2. Propose bigger changes and discuss the consequences

I am happy about every code contribution and appreciate your effort to help us developing OpenKeychain!

## Development

Development mailinglist at http://groups.google.com/d/forum/openpgp-keychain-dev

### Build with Gradle

1. Clone the project from GitHub
2. Get all external submodules with ``git submodule update --init --recursive``
3. Have Android SDK "tools", "platform-tools", and "build-tools" directories in your PATH (http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html)
4. Open the Android SDK Manager (shell command: ``android``).  
Expand the Tools directory and select "Android SDK Build-tools (Version 21.1.2)".  
Expand the Extras directory and install "Android Support Repository"  
Select everything for the newest SDK Platform, API 22, and also API 21
5. Export ANDROID_HOME pointing to your Android SDK
6. Execute ``./gradlew build``
7. You can install the app with ``adb install -r OpenKeychain/build/outputs/apk/OpenKeychain-debug-unaligned.apk``

### Run Tests
1. Use OpenJDK instead of Oracle JDK
2. Execute ``./gradlew test``

### Development with Android Studio

We are using the newest [Android Studio](http://developer.android.com/sdk/installing/studio.html) for development. Development with Eclipse is currently not possible because we are using the new [project structure](http://developer.android.com/sdk/installing/studio-tips.html).

1. Clone the project from Github
2. Get all external submodules with ``git submodule update --init --recursive``
3. From Android Studio: File -> Import Project ->  Select the cloned top folder

## Libraries

### Bouncy Castle

#### Spongy Castle

Spongy Castle is the stock Bouncy Castle libraries with a couple of small changes to make it work on Android. OpenKeychain uses a forked version with some small changes. These changes will been sent to Bouncy Castle, and Spongy Castle will be used again when they have filtered down.

## Build System

We try to make our builds as [reproducible/deterministic](https://blog.torproject.org/blog/deterministic-builds-part-one-cyberwar-and-global-compromise) as possible.  

#### Update Gradle version
* Always use a fixed Android Gradle plugin version not a dynamic one, e.g. ``0.7.3`` instead of ``0.7.+`` (allows offline builds without lookups for new versions, also some minor Android plugin versions had serious issues, i.e. [0.7.2 and 0.8.1](http://tools.android.com/tech-docs/new-build-system))
* Update every build.gradle file with the new gradle version and/or gradle plugin version
    * build.gradle
    * OpenKeychain/build.gradle
* run ./gradlew wrapper twice to update gradle and download the new gradle jar file
* commit the corresponding [Gradle wrapper](http://www.gradle.org/docs/current/userguide/gradle_wrapper.html) to the repository (allows easy building for new contributors without the need to install the required Gradle version using a package manager)
  
#### Update SDK and Build Tools
* Open build.gradle and change:
```
ext {
    compileSdkVersion = 21
    buildToolsVersion = '21.1.2'
}
```
* Change SDK and Build Tools in git submodules "openkeychain-api-lib" and "openpgp-api-lib" manually. They should also build on their own without the ext variables.

#### Add new library
* You can add the library as a Maven dependency or as a git submodule (if patches are required) in the "extern" folder.
* If added as a Maven dependency, pin the library using [Gradle Witness](https://github.com/WhisperSystems/gradle-witness) (Do ``./gradlew -q calculateChecksums`` for Trust on First Use)
* If added as a git submodule, change the ``compileSdkVersion`` and ``buildToolsVersion`` in build.gradle to use the variables from the root project:
```
android {
    compileSdkVersion rootProject.ext.compileSdkVersion
    buildToolsVersion rootProject.ext.buildToolsVersion
}
```
* You can check for wrong ``compileSdkVersion`` by ``find -name build.gradle | xargs grep compileSdkVersion``

#### Slow Gradle?

* https://www.timroes.de/2013/09/12/speed-up-gradle/
* Disable Lint checking if it is enabled in build.gradle

#### Error:Configuration with name 'default' not found.

Gradle project dependencies are missing. Do a ``git submodule init && git submodule update``

#### Build on Mac OS X fails?

Try exporting JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS="-Dfile.encoding=UTF8"

## Translations

Translations are hosted on Transifex, which is configured by ".tx/config".

1. To pull newest translations install transifex client (e.g. ``apt-get install transifex-client``)
2. Config Transifex client with "~/.transifexrc"
3. Go into root folder of git repo
4. execute ``tx pull -af --skip``

see http://help.transifex.net/features/client/index.html#user-client

## Coding Style

### Code
* Indentation: 4 spaces, no tabs
* Maximum line width for code and comments: 100
* Opening braces don't go on their own line
* Field names: Non-public, non-static fields start with m.
* Acronyms are words: Treat acronyms as words in names, yielding !XmlHttpRequest, getUrl(), etc.
* Fully Qualify Imports: Do *not* use wildcard-imports such as ``import foo.*;``

The full coding style can be found at http://source.android.com/source/code-style.html

### Automated syntax check with CheckStyle

#### Linux
1. Paste the `tools/checkstyle.xml` file to `~/.AndroidStudioPreview/config/codestyles/`
2. Go to Settings > Code Style > Java, select OpenPgpChecker, as well as Code Style > XML and select OpenPgpChecker again.
3. Start code inspection and see the results by selecting Analyze > Inspect Code from Android-Studio or you can directly run checkstyle via cli with `.tools/checkstyle`. Make sure it's executable first.

#### Mac OSX
1. Paste the `tools/checkstyle.xml` file to `~/Library/Preferences/AndroidStudioPreview/codestyles`
2. Go to Preferences > Code Style > Java, select OpenPgpChecker, as well as Code Style > XML and select OpenPgpChecker again.
3. Start code inspection and see the results by selecting Analyze > Inspect Code from Android-Studio or you can directly run checkstyle via cli with `.tools/checkstyle`. Make sure it's executable first.

#### Windows
1. Paste the `tools/checkstyle.xml` file to `C:\Users\<UserName>\.AndroidStudioPreview\config\codestyles`
2. Go to File > Settings > Code Style > Java, select OpenPgpChecker, as well as Code Style > XML and select OpenPgpChecker again.
3. Start code inspection and see the results by selecting Analyze > Inspect Code from Android-Studio.
