WIKI DOCUMENTATION

[Sejadis]

it would be nice if you could write a short guide on how to actually build the apk

i tried to figure out how to properly use gradle but im running from one error into the next :(

[comann]

Assuming you are using Android Studio.

This is what I had to do:

1. Install SDK 24 including all support repositories and tools
2. Install Android Studio 2.2 preview. (Must be part of dev/canary channel). This will resolve the missing constraint layout dependency gradle complains about.

[omkarmoghe]

We can set up a Wiki for this project with more detailed guides.

[IchigoWalker]

Can you help me with that? Some kind of troubles with Gradle, maybe wrong version of it?

[omkarmoghe]

@IchigoWalker first off, update your android studio to one of the 2.2 previews. Then open up your SDK manager and download the latest build tools, sdks etc. Finally I would try Build > Clean project

[omkarmoghe]

@Sejadis @comann @IchigoWalker Added some basic stuff to the wiki. Please feel free to contribute!

[comann]

@omkarmoghe I am not familar with how to contribute to a wiki. I cannot create PR's on a wiki according to this SO answer.

[omkarmoghe]

@comann interesting. have you tried cloning the wiki? https://github.com/omkarmoghe/Pokemap.wiki.git
and then doing a PR?

if that doesnt work we can manually add peoples changes i guess... kinda shitty that github doesnt let you pr wikis

[comann]

I am unable to create a PR successfully for the wiki repo. I have cloned the wiki and forked the main repo and to no avail. I was adding in

Prerequisites



1. Android Studio v2.2 or later

2. All 24.0.0 build tools, SDKs, and support libraries installed. ( This can be done by launching SDK Manager )


3. Android Device or Emulator with API v17 or later
4. Pokemon Go Account

Building 


1. Launch Android Studio
   
2. File --> Open --> Local Path to Cloned Repository

2. After Gradle has synced, run the PokemonMap application.

Troubleshooting



• Gradle can't find the dependency 'com.android.support.constraint:constraint-layout:1.0.0-alpha4'. Download the latest Android Studio. At the time of this writing you need to have the latest in dev/canary channel. 


[omkarmoghe]

@comann updated!

[Sejadis]

adding to

Gradle can't find the dependency 'com.android.support.constraint:constraint-layout:1.0.0-alpha4'. Download the latest Android Studio. At the time of this writing you need to have the latest in dev/canary channel.

I had to activate it manually in the SDK manager

[jLynx]

Does someone want to add a compiled APK for now? I would but I'm not going to be at a computer for another 4 days...

[a1mo]

i run this build on my phone, but i see only map (without pokemon)
user and password is correct

[jmrapp1]

That's because it doesn't load pokemon yet.

[virusbaba01]

not much in to java and android please help me put all the steps i have updated everything

[omkarmoghe]

@virusbaba01 try a 2.2 preview of android studio...

[omkarmoghe]

We can use this for running updates to the wiki. Comment with things you want added!

[ghost]

Typo in title - should be "Official". Also, using Pokémon instead of pokemon everywhere may please some of us :)

[omkarmoghe]

@georgenetu thank you. i cant spell.

[omkarmoghe]

@Animehq yes, it has not been merged in. still work in progress. also this issue is for wiki documentation, not general questions.

[psamsonov]

@virusbaba01 You put your android{} block in the wrong build.gradle file. Do it for the module, not the top-level one.

[psamsonov]

@comann same happened to me, how did you get your content added?

[a1mo]

still does not display Pokemon in app. get and build last version.

[a1mo]

dear devs
i have last apk, but dont see 'getpoke' button and pokemons. why?
nexus 5. android 6.0.1

[Sejadis]

because its not implemented...

[xomikronx]

I've done everything successfully. Built the project and built the APK. Installed APK, but no app icon. Can someone point me in the right direction?

[quinnj]

It won't pop up on your home screen automatically, but if you look in your "app drawer" it should be there under "pokemap"

[dmitryartuh]

Is it possible to inlog using google account?

[omkarmoghe]

@dmitryartuh Google Auth has been having a lot of issues. Use PTC instead.

[xomikronx]

@quinnj It's not in my drawer or on my home screen. When I look at Setting >> App, I see pokemap, but there isn't a way to run it. Just gives me the option to uninstall.

[xomikronx]

I'm new to building so apologies for asking too many questions. When I try to Run the app from Android Studio, I get the following error:
Error running PokeMap: Default Activity not found
Could this be why my APK build isn't showing an Icon to run the app when installing to phone?

[s7092910]

@xomikronx what does your Android Manifest say?

[xomikronx]

@s7092910 where can I find it?

[s7092910]

In android studio, with the project tab open, open the app folder and click on the manifest folder. It is in there.

Try invalidating your android studio cache and restarting it. If that doesn't work, try running a clean build.

[xomikronx]

Built successfully and installed successfully. Icon shows now and I am able to run the app. I enter my username and password. Now app is force closing. There is another reporting the crashing as well in #300 . Anyone else?

[xomikronx]

@s7092910 Thanks for the help!
