- Clone or Download the repository:
git clone https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/focus-android- Import the project into Android Studio or build on the command line:
./gradlew clean app:assembleFocusDebug- Make sure to select the correct build variant in Android Studio: focusArmDebug for ARM focusX86Debug for X86 focusAarch64Debug for ARM64
You can speed up or enhance local development by setting a few helper flags available in local.properties which will be made easily available as gradle properties.
To sign your release builds with your debug key automatically, add the following to <proj-root>/local.properties:
autosignReleaseWithDebugKeyWith this line, release build variants will automatically be signed with your debug key (like debug builds), allowing them to be built and installed directly through Android Studio or the command line.
This is helpful when you're building release variants frequently, for example to test feature flags and or do performance analyses.
Nightly, Beta and Release variants are getting published to Google Play and therefore are not debuggable. To locally create debuggable builds of those variants, add the following to <proj-root>/local.properties:
debuggableIf you're making changes to these projects and want to test them in Focus, auto-publication workflow is the fastest, most reliable way to do that.
In local.properties, specify a relative path to your local glean and/or application-services projects. E.g.:
autoPublish.glean.dir=../gleanautoPublish.application-services.dir=../application-services
Once these flags are set, your Focus builds will include any local modifications present in these projects.
See a demo of auto-publication workflow in action.
To reduce review turn-around time, we'd like all pushes to run tests locally. We'd
recommend you use our provided pre-push hook in quality/pre-push-recommended.sh.
Using this hook will guarantee your hook gets updated as the repository changes.
This hook tries to run as much as possible without taking too much time.
To add it, run this command from the project root:
ln -s ../../quality/pre-push-recommended.sh .git/hooks/pre-pushTo push without running the pre-push hook (e.g. doc updates):
git push <remote> --no-verifyTo get Focus Nightly on your device, follow these steps:
- Visit https://groups.google.com/g/firefox-focus-pre-release and join the Google Group
- After you have joined the group opt-in to receive Nightly builds, again with the same Google account: https://play.google.com/apps/testing/org.mozilla.focus.nightly
- Download Firefox Focus (Nightly) from Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.mozilla.focus.nightly
Make sure you use the same Google Account for both steps.
