Prerequisites

Windows:

Visual Studio 2019/2022 with the Xamarin application framework installed.

Linux:

Install the mono development framework and build the Xamarin framework.

Building

Add your google services json file to RayshiftTranslateFGO.Android/google-services.json.

Run commands similar to these, changing the paths as required:

msbuild /t:clean RayshiftTranslateFGO.Android/RayshiftTranslateFGO.Android.csproj
msbuild /t:restore RayshiftTranslateFGO.Android/RayshiftTranslateFGO.Android.csproj
msbuild /p:Configuration=Release /t:PackageForAndroid RayshiftTranslateFGO.Android/RayshiftTranslateFGO.Android.csproj /p:AndroidSdkDirectory=/path/to/android-toolchain/sdk /p:AndroidNdkDirectory=/path/to/android-toolchain/ndk

You then need to sign and zipalign your APK (both applications are part of the Android SDK Tools):

jarsigner -verbose -sigalg SHA1withRSA -digestalg SHA1 -storepass passwordhere -keystore /path/to/the.keystore RayshiftTranslateFGO.Android/bin/Release/io.rayshift.translatefgo.apk alias_name
zipalign -f -v -p 4 RayshiftTranslateFGO.Android/bin/Release/io.rayshift.translatefgo.apk RayshiftTranslateFGO.Android/bin/Release/io.rayshift.translatefgo-release.apk

You may also need to rebuild https://github.com/rayshift/nextgenfs and its bindings (overwrite RayshiftTranslateFGO.NextGenFS/Jars) if you want to change any of the AIDL api functions. For detail on how the AIDL bindings work, please see the developer guide.
