This follows up to my previous commit [1], which introduced
docs/build_mozc_for_android.md
as a dedicated build instruction page for building 'libmozc.so' for
Android as part of removing the dependency on Docker from our build
instructions (#1181).
While the above document uses 'python3' elsewhere, there was one place
where 'python' was used instead. It would be better to avoid 'python'
in favor of PEP 394 [2].

How to build libmozc.so
for Android
Summary
If you are not sure what the following commands do, please check the descriptions below and make sure the operations before running them.
git clone https://github.com/google/mozc.git
cd mozc/src
export PYTHON_VENV_ROOT=${PWD}/python-venv
python3 -m venv ${PYTHON_VENV_ROOT}
source ${PYTHON_VENV_ROOT}/bin/activate
python3 -m pip install requests
python3 build_tools/update_deps.py
bazelisk build package --config oss_android --config release_build
Client code for Android apk is deprecated. (the last revision with Android client code is afb03dd).
Setup
System Requirements
Currently macOS and Linux are tested to build libmozc.so
for Android.
Software Requirements
Building libmozc.so
for Android requires the following software.
- bazelisk
- C++ compiler (GCC or clang)
- Python 3.9 or later with the following pip module.
requests
Build instructions
Get the Code
You can download Mozc source code as follows:
git clone https://github.com/google/mozc.git
cd mozc/src
Hereafter you can do all the operations without changing directory.
Set up and enable Python virtual environment
The following commands set up Python virtual environment under mozc/src/python-venv
.
export PYTHON_VENV_ROOT=${PWD}/python-venv
python3 -m venv ${PYTHON_VENV_ROOT}
source ${PYTHON_VENV_ROOT}/bin/activate
python3 -m pip install requests
Using mozc/src/python-venv
as the virtual environment location is not mandatory. Any other location should also work.

In this step, additional build dependencies will be downloaded.
Build libmozc.so
for Android
bazelisk build package --config oss_android --config release_build
package
is an alias to build android/jni:native_libs
.
