# Jitsi Meet SDK for Android
## Build
## Build your own, or use a pre-build SDK artifacts/binaries
Jitsi conveniently provides a pre-build SDK artifacts/binaries in its Maven repository. When you do not require any modification to the SDK itself, it's suggested to use the pre-build SDK. This avoids the complexity of building and installing your own SDK artifacts/binaries.
### Use pre-build SDK artifacts/binaries
In your project, add the Maven repository
`https://github.com/jitsi/jitsi-maven-repository/raw/master/releases` and the
dependency `org.jitsi.react:jitsi-meet-sdk` into your `build.gradle` files.
The repository typically goes into the `build.gradle` file in the root of your project:
```gradle
allprojects {
repositories {
google()
jcenter()
maven {
url "https://github.com/jitsi/jitsi-maven-repository/raw/master/releases"
}
}
}
```
Dependency definitions belong in the individual module `build.gradle` files:
```gradle
dependencies {
// (other dependencies)
implementation ('org.jitsi.react:jitsi-meet-sdk:+') { transitive = true }
}
```
### Build and use your own SDK artifacts/binaries
1. Install all required [dependencies](https://github.com/jitsi/jitsi-meet/blob/master/doc/mobile.md).
2. ```bash
2. Create the SDK-release assembly, by invoking the following in the jitsi-meet
project source:
```bash
cd android/
./gradlew :sdk:assembleRelease
```
When this successfully executes, artifacts/binaries are ready to be published
into a Maven repository of your choice.
3. Configure the Maven repositories in which you are going to publish the
artifacts/binaries during step 4. Modify
artifacts/binaries during step 4.
In the file `android/sdk/build.gradle` modify the line that contains
`"file:${rootProject.projectDir}/../../../jitsi/jitsi-maven-repository/releases"`
in adroid/sdk/build.gradle for Jitsi Meet SDK for Android and/or
`"file:${rootProject.projectDir}/../../../jitsi/jitsi-maven-repository/releases"`
in android/build.gradle for the third-party react-native modules which Jitsi
Meet SDK for Android depends on and are not publicly available in Maven
repositories. Generally, if you are modifying the JavaScript code of Jitsi
Meet SDK for Android only, you will very likely need to consider the former
only.
Change this value (which represents the Maven repository location used internally
by the Jitsi Developers) to the location of the repository that you'd like to use.
4. Publish the Maven artifact/binary of Jitsi Meet SDK for Android in the Maven
repository configured in step 3:

./gradlew :sdk:publish
cd ../
```
5. In _your_ project, add the Maven repository that you configured in step 3, as well
as the dependency `org.jitsi.react:jitsi-meet-sdk` into your `build.gradle`
file. Note that it's needed to pull in the transitive dependencies:
```gradle
implementation ('org.jitsi.react:jitsi-meet-sdk:+') { transitive = true }
```
If you would like to publish a third-party react-native module which Jitsi
Meet SDK for Android depends on and is not publicly available in Maven
repositories, replace `sdk` with the name of the react-native module. For
example, to publish react-native-webrtc:
Generally, if you are modifying the JavaScript code of Jitsi Meet SDK for Android only,
the above will suffice. If you would like to publish a third-party react-native module
which Jitsi Meet SDK for Android depends on (and is not publicly available in Maven
repositories) continue below.
6. Create the release assembly for _each_ third-party react-native module that you
need, replacing it's name in the example below.
```bash
./gradlew :react-native-webrtc:assembleRelease
```
7. Configure the Maven repositories in which you are going to publish the
artifacts/binaries during step 8.
In the file `android/build.gradle` (note that this is a different file than the file
that was modified in step 3) modify the line that contains
`"file:${rootProject.projectDir}/../../../jitsi/jitsi-maven-repository/releases"`
Change this value (which represents the Maven repository location used internally
by the Jitsi Developers) to the location of the repository that you'd like to use.
You can use the same repository as the one you configured in step 3 if you want.
8. Publish the Maven artifact/binary of _each_ third-party react-native module that
you need, replacing it's name in the example below. For example, to publish
react-native-webrtc:
```bash
./gradlew :react-native-webrtc:publish
```
## Install
Note that there should not be a need to explicitly add these dependencies in
_your_ project, as they will be pulled in as transitive dependencies of
`jitsi-meet-sdk`.
Add the Maven repository
`https://github.com/jitsi/jitsi-maven-repository/raw/master/releases` and the
dependency `org.jitsi.react:jitsi-meet-sdk:1.9.0` into your `build.gradle`.
## API
## Using the API
Jitsi Meet SDK is an Android library which embodies the whole Jitsi Meet
experience and makes it reusable by third-party apps.
