Android NDK

[cpages]

Building on top of @svanderburg's android work, I have since a while an expression for android's ndk. Until I find the time to polish it to a mergeable state, I thought at least I would let people know of its existence in my branch (cpages/nixpkgs@master...android).

I use it together with an env in this form:

      droidEnv = myEnvFun {
          name = "droid";
          buildInputs = [ jdk ant androidsdk_4_1 androidndk which gnumake ];
          extraCmds = ''
            export ANDROID_HOME=${androidenv.androidsdk_4_1}/libexec/android-sdk-linux
            export PATH=\$PATH:${androidndk}
            export GNUMAKE=${gnumake}/bin/make
            export NDK_HOST_AWK=${gawk}/bin/gawk
          '';
      };

Cool! Thanks for sharing this.

@cpages Nice! Any chance this is close to PR state?

[cpages]

@shlevy Unfortunately not. I put this on hold a while ago since I had a child and my spare time vanished :) It's on my retake list.

Ah, congratulations! And no worries, just wanted to get a sense of status here.

@shlevy Here it is: #2346

@svanderburg already merged pr #2346, so I'm closing this. Thanks @shlevy

For who (like me) comes here via a search engine, the NDK can now be fetched via nixpkgs as described in https://nixos.org/nixpkgs/manual/#android (I'm using androidenv.buildApp in a shell.nix)
