# Android Helper

- If you have any questions/comments, please visit [**Pico Developer Answers**](https://devanswers.pico-interactive.com/) and raise your question there.

This project incorporates most of our Android repositories into one single package, and categorizes all interfaces into 6 classes:  ``DeviceHelper``, ``StorageHelper``, ``BlueToothHelper``, ``WifiHelper``, ``PowerManagerHelper``, ``AudioHelper``.

## Prerequirement
 Knowledge of [Unity Scripting API: AndroidJavaObject](https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/AndroidJavaObject.html)

## Usage
1. Clone this repo and make project in Android Studio, or download aar file in [release page](https://github.com/picoxr/AndroidHelper/releases).

2. Put ``AndroidHelper_Vx.x.x.aar`` into your Unity project's Assets/Plugins/Android directory;

3. Refer to the sample code below to call the interface.

```c#
   //Initialize an AndroidJavaObject with the class name of the interface, 
   //e.g., DeviceHelper, StorageHelper, BlueToothHelper, WifiHelper, PowerManagerHelper.
   AndroidJavaObject  deviceHelper= new AndroidJavaObject("com.picovr.androidhelper.DeviceHelper");
   //Get current activity
   AndroidJavaObject  activityContext = new AndroidJavaClass("com.unity3d.player.UnityPlayer")
   .GetStatic<AndroidJavaObject>("currentActivity");
   //Must call "init" method before call other interface.
   deviceHelper.Call("init", activityContext );
   //Call the interface.
   string puiVersion = deviceHelper.Call<string>("getPUIVersion");
   ```

## System Signature

The interface marked with star "(*)" requires the system signature.

Refer to the following steps to sign you APK using Pico system signature:

1. Add sharedUserId in ``AndroidManifest.xml`` in Assets/Plugins/Android（If you are using Unity 2019.3.x and above，this directory should be [Unity_PATH]\Editor\Data\PlaybackEngines\AndroidPlayer\Apk\LauncherManifest.xml).

```xml
   <manifest ... android:sharedUserId="android.uid.system">
   ...
   </manifest>
   ```

2. Refer to [online instruction](http://static.appstore.picovr.com/docs/KioskMode/chapter_three.html) to sign your apk with system signature.

## Resolve Android support library conflict

The ``installApp`` API use ``AndroidX`` support library which may cause conflict if there is another support libraty in your unity project. To resolve this problem, use "AndroidHelper_vx.x.x_nxs.aar" (no androidx support) in [release page](https://github.com/picoxr/AndroidHelper/releases). This AAR removed the androidx support library and related reference. Note that the ``installApp`` API won't work anymore after doing this.

**Note: The interface marked with star "(*)" requires the APK has the system signature**
