# cargo apk
Tool for creating Android packages.
## Installation
From crates.io:

```
## Commands
- `build`: Compiles the current package
- `run`: Run a binary or example of the local package
- `gdb`: Start a gdb session attached to an adb device with symbols loaded
## Manifest
`cargo` supports the `metadata` table for configurations for external tools like `cargo apk`.
Following configuration options are supported by `cargo apk` under `[package.metadata.android]`:
```toml
[package.metadata.android]
# Specifies the package property of the manifest.
package = "com.foo.bar"
# Specifies the array of targets to build for.
build_targets = [ "armv7-linux-androideabi", "aarch64-linux-android", "i686-linux-android", "x86_64-linux-android" ]
# Path to your application's resources folder.
# If not specified, resources will not be included in the APK.
resources = "path/to/resources_folder"
# Path to the folder containing your application's assets.
# If not specified, assets will not be included in the APK.
assets = "path/to/assets_folder"
# Name for final APK file.
# Defaults to package name.
apk_name = "myapp"
# Folder containing extra shared libraries intended to be dynamically loaded at runtime.
# Files matching `libs_folder/${android_abi}/*.so` are added to the apk
# according to the specified build_targets.
runtime_libs = "path/to/libs_folder"
# See https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element
