Installing Buildozer with python2 support:

#. Install buildozer::
#. Install buildozer:
# via pip (latest stable, recommended)
sudo pip install buildozer

#. Go into your application directory and do::
#. Go into your application directory and run::

# edit the buildozer.spec, then
buildozer android_new debug deploy run
Example of commands::
Installing Buildozer with python3 support:
------------------------------------------
The pip package does not yet support python3.
#. Install buildozer from source::
git clone https://github.com/kivy/buildozer
cd buildozer
python setup.py build
sudo pip install -e
#. Download and extract the crystax ndk somewhere (~/.buildozer/crystax-ndk is one option): https://www.crystax.net/en/download
#. Go into your application directory and execute::
buildozer init
#. Edit the buildozer.spec file to fit your application
#. Edit the "requirements" line of buildozer.spec so it starts with at least the following::
requirements = python3crystax,kivy
#. Edit the buildozer.spec andriod.ndk line to point to the directory where you extracted the crystax-ndk::
android.ndk_path = ~/.buildozer/crystax-ndk
#. Finally, build, deploy and run the app on your phone::
buildozer android_new debug deploy run
#. Please note the "android_new" buildozer target, and use that for any and all buildozer commands you run (even if the docs just say "android"). Python3 only works with the *android_new* toolchain.
Examples of Buildozer commands:
--------------------------------
::
# buildozer target command
buildozer android_new clean
