This is an app exposing Android API to command line usage and scripts or programs.
When developing or packaging, note that this app needs to be signed with the same key as the main NeoTerm app for permissions to work (only the main NeoTerm app are allowed to call the API methods in this app).
NeoTerm:API application can be obtained from F-Droid.
Additionally we provide per-commit debug builds for those who want to try out the latest features or test their pull request. This build can be obtained from one of the workflow runs listed on Github Actions page.
Signature keys of all offered builds are different. Before you switch the installation source, you will have to uninstall the NeoTerm application and all currently installed plugins. Check https://github.io.neoterm/neoterm-app#Installation for more info.
Released under the GPLv3 license.
The neoterm-api
client binary in the neoterm-api
package generates two linux anonymous namespace
sockets, and passes their address to the NeoTermApiReceiver broadcast receiver
as in:
/system/bin/am broadcast ${BROADCAST_RECEIVER} --es socket_input ${INPUT_SOCKET} --es socket_output ${OUTPUT_SOCKET}
The two sockets are used to forward stdin from neoterm-api
to the relevant API
class and output from the API class to the stdout of neoterm-api
.
Client scripts which processes command line arguments before calling the
neoterm-api
helper binary are available in the neoterm-api package.
