This page documents all the commands and options that can be passed to
|

Commands index
|
||
|
|
--------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The commands available are the methods of the ToolchainCL class,
|
||
|
|
documented below. They may have options of their own, or you can
|
||
|
|
always pass `general arguments`_ or `distribution arguments`_ to any
|
||
|
|
command (though if irrelevant they may not have an effect).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
.. autoclass:: toolchain.ToolchainCL
|
||
|
|
:members:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
General arguments
|
||
|
|
-----------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
These arguments may be passed to any command in order to modify its
|
||
|
|
behaviour, though not all commands make use of them.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
``--debug``
|
||
|
|
Print extra debug information about the build, including all compilation output.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
``--sdk_dir``
|
||
|
|
The filepath where the Android SDK is installed. This can
|
||
|
|
alternatively be set in several other ways.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
``--android_api``
|
||
|
|
The Android API level to target; python-for-android will check if
|
||
|
|
the platform tools for this level are installed.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
``--ndk_dir``
|
||
|
|
The filepath where the Android NDK is installed. This can
|
||
|
|
alternatively be set in several other ways.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
``--ndk_version``
|
||
|
|
The version of the NDK installed, important because the internal
|
||
|
|
filepaths to build tools depend on this. This can alternatively be
|
||
|
|
set in several other ways, or if your NDK dir contains a RELEASE.TXT
|
||
|
|
containing the version this is automatically checked so you don't
|
||
|
|
need to manually set it.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Distribution arguments
|
||
|
|
----------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
p4a supports several arguments used for specifying which compiled
|
||
|
|
Android distribution you want to use. You may pass any of these
|
||
|
|
arguments to any command, and if a distribution is required they will
|
||
|
|
be used to load, or compile, or download this as necessary.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
None of these options are essential, and in principle you need only
|
||
|
|
supply those that you need.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
``--name NAME``
|
||
|
|
The name of the distribution. Only one distribution with a given name can be created.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
``--requirements LIST,OF,REQUIREMENTS``
|
||
|
|
The recipes that your
|
||
|
|
distribution must contain, as a comma separated list. These must be
|
||
|
|
names of recipes or the pypi names of Python modules.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
``--force-build BOOL``
|
||
|
|
Whether the distribution must be compiled from scratch.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
``--arch``
|
||
|
|
The architecture to build for. You can specify multiple architectures to build for
|
||
|
|
at the same time. As an example ``p4a ... --arch arm64-v8a --arch armeabi-v7a ...``
|
||
|
|
will build a distribution for both ``arm64-v8a`` and ``armeabi-v7a``.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
``--bootstrap BOOTSTRAP``
|
||
|
|
The Java bootstrap to use for your application. You mostly don't
|
||
|
|
need to worry about this or set it manually, as an appropriate
|
||
|
|
bootstrap will be chosen from your ``--requirements``. Current
|
||
|
|
choices are ``sdl2`` (used with Kivy and most other apps) or ``webview``.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
.. note:: These options are preliminary. Others will include toggles
|
||
|
|
for allowing downloads, and setting additional directories
|
||
|
|
from which to load user dists.
