A sample app illustrating use of SAS Library.
SAS Library is currently under heavy development. Note that some changes (such as database schema modifications) are not backwards compatible and may cause the app to crash. In this case, please uninstall and re-install the app.
Android Jetpack is a set of components, tools and guidance to make great Android apps. They bring together the existing Support Library and Architecture Components and arrange them into four categories:
This project uses the Gradle build system. To build this project, use the
gradlew build command or use "Import Project" in Android Studio.
There are two Gradle tasks for testing the project:
connectedAndroidTest- for running Espresso on a connected devicetest- for running unit tests
For more resources on learning Android development, visit the Developer Guides at developer.android.com.
The app is still usable without an API key.
- Foundation - Components for core system capabilities, Kotlin extensions and support for
multidex and automated testing.
- AppCompat - Degrade gracefully on older versions of Android.
- Android KTX - Write more concise, idiomatic Kotlin code.
- Test - An Android testing framework for unit and runtime UI tests.
- Architecture - A collection of libraries that help you design robust, testable, and
maintainable apps. Start with classes for managing your UI component lifecycle and handling data
persistence.
- Data Binding - Declaratively bind observable data to UI elements.
- Lifecycles - Create a UI that automatically responds to lifecycle events.
- Navigation - Handle everything needed for in-app navigation.
- Room - Access your app's SQLite database with in-app objects and compile-time checks.
- Kotlin Coroutines for managing background threads with simplified code and reducing needs for callbacks
- EasyPermission for managing permission related checks
Updates will include incorporating additional Jetpack components and updating existing components as the component libraries evolve.

For development, the latest version of Android Studio is required. The latest version can be downloaded from here.
SAS Library uses ktlint to enforce Kotlin coding styles. Here's how to configure it for use with Android Studio (instructions adapted from the ktlint README):
-
Close Android Studio if it's open
-
Download ktlint using these installation instructions
-
Apply ktlint settings to Android Studio using these instructions
-
Start Android Studio
