NOTE: This is a very old legacy project! Code quality is awful, but I'm not going to rewrite the whole app for "fun". Feel free to fork it and improve it yourself, it is licensed under AGPL v3; reverse engineering the MCPE format is time consuming, share your updates.
Screenshots, download links, roadmap etc. can all be found on blocktopograph.protolambda.com.
Steps to get started quickly:
This project requires you to download some android SDKs, tools, libraries and drivers.
- SDKs + Tools: please check the sdk version before cloning a repo, then install sdk+tools for this version with SDK-manager.
- Libraries: You need to install the google-services and google-repository libraries with SDK-manager.
- Drivers: download the appropriate drivers for your phone to use
adb
. The SDK-manager provides windows drivers for the Nexus phones. - Some libraries are downloaded by gradle itself. You do not have to worry about these.
- Sub-modules are managed with git. (See installation)
NOTE: You may want to fork one of the dependencies (or this project) if you want to contribute.
mkdir block-project
or something like that. This will be the main-containercd
into the new foldergit clone
(your fork of) this repositorygit clone
(your fork of) android-leveldbcd android-leveldb
andgit submodule update
to get the leveldb-mcpe git-submodule, it is required for building this project.cd ..
(back to the main container)git clone
(your fork of) TileView- Add
local.properties
files to these projects, withsdk.dir
for your sdk home, and withndk.dir
specified forandroid-leveldb
. - Open the cloned blocktopograph repo with your IDE (android-studio and intellij-idea are tested).
The blocktopograph repo should be the
root-module
;app
,library
(android-leveldb) andtileview
(TileView) will be recognized as sub-modules. - Build the project with gradle
- Make the project, to get android-leveldb native libs.
- Switch build-variants of the projects you want to debug and rebuild with gradle (or leave them as is)
- Good to go! Try running a debug build (
app
submodule)! Start with small-changes to see if you encounter any problems.
The official Google-Play version is managed by @protolambda. The Release-signing keys are not available. You can build it as debug build or sign it with your own keys.
This Google-Play version will be updated after any significant and well-written feature additions and fixes.
