Usage (if you are a Mac user):

1. Connect your MateBook Pro to Mac, and do the following steps on Mac
2. Clone this repo recursively, and cd into this repo
3. Setup code signing in DevEco-Studio, ignore warnings if any
4. Install wget, coreutils make gsed and ncurses from homebrew
5. (M-series User) export PATH="/opt/homebrew/opt/coreutils/libexec/gnubin:/opt/homebrew/opt/gnu-sed/libexec/gnubin:/opt/homebrew/opt/make/libexec/gnubin:$PATH"
6. Run ./create-hnp.sh to create hnp packages
7. Run ./build-macos.sh
8. Run ./push.sh ./entry/build/default/outputs/default/entry-default-signed.hap
9. Input command in the text input of the application, press enter

Usage (if you are a Linux user):

1. Connect your MateBook Pro to a Linux machine, and do the following steps
2. Clone this repo recursively, and cd into this repo
3. Setup code signing in DevEco-Studio, ignore warnings if any
4. Setup DevEco Command Line Tools, and make sure $TOOL_HOME env var is a correct directory to SDK
5. Run ./build-linux.sh -b to create hnp packages
6. Run ./build-linux.sh -s to signing
7. Run ./build-linux.sh -p
8. Input command in the text input of the application, press enter

How does it work

By examining CodeArts IDE, we found that it utilizes HNP packages for native programs. You need to package .hnp files into the .hap, and add them to module.json5 like:

{
  "module": {
    "hnpPackages": [
      {
        "package": "busybox.hnp",
        "type": "private"
      }
    ]
  }
}

Then, you need to add the .hnp files to .hap and sign the .hap manually. You can refer to sign.py to see how it is done. The .hnp packages are unpacked under /data/app automatically and symlinks are created under /data/app/bin.
