# Jitsi Meet SDK for Android

## 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. 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.

   In the file `android/sdk/build.gradle` 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.

4. Publish the Maven artifact/binary of Jitsi Meet SDK for Android in the Maven
   repository configured in step 3:

   ```bash
   ./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 }
   ```

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
   ```

   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`.


## 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.

First, add Java 1.8 compatibility support to your project by adding the
following lines into your `build.gradle` file:

```
compileOptions {
    sourceCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
    targetCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
}
```

To get started, extends your `android.app.Activity` from
`org.jitsi.meet.sdk.JitsiMeetActivity`:

```java
package org.jitsi.example;

import org.jitsi.meet.sdk.JitsiMeetActivity;

public class MainActivity extends JitsiMeetActivity {
}
```

Alternatively, you can use the `org.jitsi.meet.sdk.JitsiMeetView` class which
extends `android.view.View`:

```java
package org.jitsi.example;

import android.os.Bundle;
import android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity;

import org.jitsi.meet.sdk.JitsiMeetView;

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
    private JitsiMeetView view;

    @Override
    public void onBackPressed() {
        if (!JitsiMeetView.onBackPressed()) {
            // Invoke the default handler if it wasn't handled by React.
            super.onBackPressed();
        }
    }

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

        view = new JitsiMeetView(this);
        view.loadURL(null);

        setContentView(view);
    }

    @Override
    protected void onDestroy() {
        super.onDestroy();

        view.dispose();
        view = null;

        JitsiMeetView.onHostDestroy(this);
    }

    @Override
    public void onNewIntent(Intent intent) {
        JitsiMeetView.onNewIntent(intent);
    }

    @Override
    protected void onResume() {
        super.onResume();

        JitsiMeetView.onHostResume(this);
    }

    @Override
    protected void onStop() {
        super.onStop();

        JitsiMeetView.onHostPause(this);
    }
}
```

### JitsiMeetActivity

This class encapsulates a high level API in the form of an Android `Activity`
which displays a single `JitsiMeetView`.

#### getDefaultURL()

See JitsiMeetView.getDefaultURL.

#### isPictureInPictureEnabled()

See JitsiMeetView.isPictureInPictureEnabled.

#### isWelcomePageEnabled()

See JitsiMeetView.isWelcomePageEnabled.

#### loadURL(URL)

See JitsiMeetView.loadURL.

#### setDefaultURL(URL)

See JitsiMeetView.setDefaultURL.

#### setPictureInPictureEnabled(boolean)

See JitsiMeetView.setPictureInPictureEnabled.

#### setWelcomePageEnabled(boolean)

See JitsiMeetView.setWelcomePageEnabled.

### JitsiMeetView

The `JitsiMeetView` class is the core of Jitsi Meet SDK. It's designed to
display a Jitsi Meet conference (or a welcome page).

#### dispose()

Releases all resources associated with this view. This method MUST be called
when the Activity holding this view is going to be destroyed, usually in the
`onDestroy()` method.

#### getDefaultURL()

Returns the default base URL used to join a conference when a partial URL (e.g.
a room name only) is specified to `loadURLString`/`loadURLObject`. If not set or
if set to `null`, the default built in JavaScript is used: https://meet.jit.si.

#### getListener()

Returns the `JitsiMeetViewListener` instance attached to the view.

#### isPictureInPictureEnabled()

Returns `true` if Picture-in-Picture is enabled; `false`, otherwise. If not
explicitly set (by a preceding `setPictureInPictureEnabled` call), defaults to
`true` if the platform supports Picture-in-Picture natively; `false`, otherwise.

#### isWelcomePageEnabled()

Returns true if the Welcome page is enabled; otherwise, false. If false, a black
empty view will be rendered when not in a conference. Defaults to false.

#### loadURL(URL)

Loads a specific URL which may identify a conference to join. If the specified
URL is null and the Welcome page is enabled, the Welcome page is displayed
instead.

#### loadURLString(String)

Loads a specific URL which may identify a conference to join. If the specified
URL is null and the Welcome page is enabled, the Welcome page is displayed
instead.

#### loadURLObject(Bundle)

Loads a specific URL which may identify a conference to join. The URL is
specified in the form of a Bundle of properties which (1) internally are
sufficient to construct a URL (string) while (2) abstracting the specifics of
constructing the URL away from API clients/consumers. If the specified URL is
null and the Welcome page is enabled, the Welcome page is displayed instead.

Example:

```java
Bundle config = new Bundle();
config.putBoolean("startWithAudioMuted", true);
config.putBoolean("startWithVideoMuted", false);
Bundle urlObject = new Bundle();
urlObject.putBundle("config", config);
urlObject.putString("url", "https://meet.jit.si/Test123");
view.loadURLObject(urlObject);
```

#### setDefaultURL(URL)

Sets the default URL. See `getDefaultURL` for more information.

NOTE: Must be called before (if at all) `loadURL`/`loadURLString` for it to take
effect.

#### setListener(listener)

Sets the given listener (class implementing the `JitsiMeetViewListener`
interface) on the view.

#### setPictureInPictureEnabled(boolean)

Sets whether Picture-in-Picture is enabled. If not set, Jitsi Meet SDK
automatically enables/disables Picture-in-Picture based on native platform
support.

NOTE: Must be called (if at all) before `loadURL`/`loadURLString` for it to take
effect.

#### setWelcomePageEnabled(boolean)

Sets whether the Welcome page is enabled. See `isWelcomePageEnabled` for more
information.

NOTE: Must be called (if at all) before `loadURL`/`loadURLString` for it to take
effect.

#### onBackPressed()

Helper method which should be called from the activity's `onBackPressed` method.
If this function returns `true`, it means the action was handled and thus no
extra processing is required; otherwise the app should call the parent's
`onBackPressed` method.

This is a static method.

#### onHostDestroy(activity)

Helper method which should be called from the activity's `onDestroy` method.

This is a static method.

#### onHostPause(activity)

Helper method which should be called from the activity's `onPause` method.

This is a static method.

#### onHostResume(activity)

Helper method which should be called from the activity's `onResume` or `onStop`
method.

This is a static method.

#### onNewIntent(intent)

Helper method for integrating the *deep linking* functionality. If your app's
activity is launched in "singleTask" mode this method should be called from the
activity's `onNewIntent` method.

This is a static method.

#### onUserLeaveHint()

Helper method for integrating automatic Picture-in-Picture. It should be called
from the activity's `onUserLeaveHint` method.

This is a static method.

#### JitsiMeetViewListener

`JitsiMeetViewListener` provides an interface apps can implement to listen to
the state of the Jitsi Meet conference displayed in a `JitsiMeetView`.

### JitsiMeetViewAdapter

A default implementation of the `JitsiMeetViewListener` interface. Apps may
extend the class instead of implementing the interface in order to minimize
boilerplate.

##### onConferenceFailed

Called when a joining a conference was unsuccessful or when there was an error
while in a conference.

The `data` `Map` contains an "error" key describing the error and a "url" key
with the conference URL.

#### onConferenceJoined

Called when a conference was joined.

The `data` `Map` contains a "url" key with the conference URL.

#### onConferenceLeft

Called when a conference was left.

The `data` `Map` contains a "url" key with the conference URL.

#### onConferenceWillJoin

Called before a conference is joined.

The `data` `Map` contains a "url" key with the conference URL.

#### onConferenceWillLeave

Called before a conference is left.

The `data` `Map` contains a "url" key with the conference URL.

#### onLoadConfigError

Called when loading the main configuration file from the Jitsi Meet deployment
fails.

The `data` `Map` contains an "error" key with the error and a "url" key with the
conference URL which necessitated the loading of the configuration file.

## ProGuard rules

When using the SDK on a project some proguard rules have to be added in order
to avoid necessary code being stripped. Add the following to your project's
rules file:

```
# React Native

# Keep our interfaces so they can be used by other ProGuard rules.
# See http://sourceforge.net/p/proguard/bugs/466/
-keep,allowobfuscation @interface com.facebook.proguard.annotations.DoNotStrip

## Picture-in-Picture

`JitsiMeetView` will automatically adjust its UI when presented in a
Picture-in-Picture style scenario, in a rectangle too small to accommodate its
"full" UI.

Jitsi Meet SDK automatically enables (unless explicitly disabled by a
`setPictureInPictureEnabled(false)` call) Android's native Picture-in-Picture
mode iff the platform is supported i.e. Android >= Oreo.

## Dropbox integration

To setup the Dropbox integration, follow these steps:

1. Add the following to the app's AndroidManifest.xml and change `<APP_KEY>` to
your Dropbox app key:
```
<activity
    android:configChanges="keyboard|orientation"
    android:launchMode="singleTask"
    android:name="com.dropbox.core.android.AuthActivity">
  <intent-filter>
    <action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" />
    <category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />
    <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
    <data android:scheme="db-<APP_KEY>" />
  </intent-filter>
</activity>
```

2. Add the following to the app's strings.xml and change `<APP_KEY>` to your
Dropbox app key:
```
<string name="dropbox_app_key"><APP_KEY></string>
```
