APKGenerator

Create your apk directly in Termux using this cli tool.

Offline working apk

qjs --std APKGenerator.js -a myAssets -n ga.stringmanolo.example -t Example

Only online apk

qjs --std APKGenerator.js -u https://example.com -n ga.stringmanolo.example -t Example

Install

You need the follow packages:

  • Quickjs
  • Git
  • Aapt
  • Apksigner
  • Dx
  • Ecj
  • Curl
  • buildAPKs
  • APKGenerator (this script)

Make sure you have access to ~/storage/downloads folder.
If you didn't run termux-setup-storage yet (You need to run it for sure if you have installed Termux for the first time) go ahead.

Install everything by pasting following command yes | pkg install quickjs git aapt apksigner dx ecj curl; curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/BuildAPKs/buildAPKs/master/setup.buildAPKs.bash && yes | bash setup.buildAPKs.bash && cp ~/buildAPKs/scripts/bash/build/build.one.bash ~/../usr/bin/ && chmod +775 ~/../usr/bin/build.one.bash; git clone https://github.com/StringManolo/APKGenerator && cd APKGenerator

Notice

The --permissions arguments it's not made yet. You can manually manage them editting the AndroidManifest.xml file. You don't need to since the apk has internet permission by default.

Be free to open a new issue if you find any problem. Or contact me in telegram https://t.me/stringmanolo @StringManolo if you are stuck or need more information or assistence on a proyect.

At the moment this program need internet connection since is downloading APKGeneratorBase repo everytime you run the command. Make sure to rename move or delete the folder APKGeneratorBase (your build proyect) before you run again the APKGenerator.js (This is done automatically now)..
