This is really only useful for testing (e.g., skylot/jadx#1530). It's a very basic Gradle project plus a shell script that builds an APK file which doesn't contain any Java classes. The file is one in a set of split APKs built from an Android Application Bundle (AAB) file in the same method used by the Google Play store, except that it doesn't have any meaningful or useful app attached to it.
- Install the Android SDK at
~/Library/Android/sdk - Have a Java runtime in your PATH
- Use a POSIX-compatible shell to run
build-sample.sh - Do whatever it is you want with the resulting
resources-only.apk
I don't anticipate modifying this code further at this time, but you never know what someone might find useful.
