Code Style

General Android code style guidelines apply, with the exception of following indent sizes:

• tab size: 2 space
• indent: 2 space
• continuous indent: 4 space

You can set these under Code Style in Android Studio or IntelliJ IDEA.

Alternatively, you may copy quran_android-code_style.xml to Android Studio/IntelliJ IDEA codestyles folder. For Android Studio, that folder is located at ~/.AndroidStudioPreview1.2/config/codestyles (the root folder name may differ depending on the host machine and Android Studio version, but the rest of the path should be same). After copying the quran_android-code_style.xml, go to Code Style preferences screen and choose quran_android-code_style from Code Style Schemes.

Setup

1. get and install the android sdk
2. make sure $ANDROID_HOME is set to the correct place.
3. build from the command line by running ./gradlew assembleDebug
4. if you want an ide, download the latest version of android studio (latest as of this writing is version 0.8.14)
5. run android studio, choose import project, then choose build.gradle from the main quran source code directory.

and that's it!

Terms of use

you are free to use parts of the Quran Android code in your application with some conditions:

• your app must be respectful of the book of Allah. adding advertisements above and below each page of Quran is unacceptable, for example (yes, someone actually did that).

• your app must provide some significant value over our app - otherwise, why not just contribute a patch instead?

• your app cannot make money from ads or from sales. there are many reasons for this:

  • we made this app for the benefit of people and not to make a profit
  • the app costs us money (for serving the pages, translations, etc), not to mention the time to develop it and to support it.
  • not all of the data that we use is okay to be sold. the images, along with some of the translations are on a license that allows their use and distribution for free for non-profit uses, but does not allow users to make money from them.

• if you write an application using any of the Quran data (the images, the translations, etc), you must provide a link to the respective data source page (tanzil.net for the translations and the quran images project for the images) both within your application (in an about page) and in your application description in the market or app store.

• if you use part of (or all of) the quran android code or graphics, you must provide a link back to the quran android project in your application description and your application itself in an about section.
