Setting up the basics

1. Dashboard Configurations

Open app/src/main/res/values/dashboard_configurations.xml, there will be a lot of options to configure the dashboard. All options are documented in the XML file itself.

2. License Checker

NOTE: IF YOU DISABLE LICENSE CHECKER, JUST IGNORE THIS.

Open License.java inside licenses package.

• private static final boolean ENABLE_LICENSE_CHECKER → (true) Enable license checker. (false) Disable license checker.
• private static final byte[] SALT → Random bytes. For easy way you can go to this site www.random.org

1. Set generate 20 random strings.
2. Each string should be 2 character long.
3. Check numeric digit (0-9).
4. Choose each string should be unique
5. Get string

Here's an example

private static final byte[] SALT = new byte[] {
    66, 57, 94, 14, 05, 33, 22, 55, 10, 48, 90, 45, 40, 02, 36, 88, 76, 71, 86, 51
};

• private static final String LICENSE_KEY → You can get your license key from Google Developer Console. Open Play Developer Console. Open your app. Go to Monetisation setup, you can find it in the sidebar. There you can find the license key, it looks something like MIIBIjANBgkqhki.....

Here's an example

private static final String LICENSE_KEY = "MIIBIjANBgkqhki.....";

• private static final InAppBilling[] PREMIUM_REQUEST_PRODUCTS → Premium request InApp Product Id and Premium request count.
• private static final InAppBilling[] DONATION_PRODUCT → Donation InApp Product Id.
