# Mongoose Build on Android
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This is a small guide to help you run mongoose on Android. Currently it is
|
|
|
|
|
tested on the HTC Wildfire. If you have managed to run it on other devices
|
|
|
|
|
as well, please comment or drop an email in the mailing list.
|
|
|
|
|
Note : You dont need root access to run mongoose on Android.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Clone Mongoose Git repo
|
|
|
|
|
- Download the Android NDK from [http://developer.android.com/tools/sdk/ndk/index.html](http://developer.android.com/tools/sdk/ndk/index.html)

|

|
|
|
That should generate mongoose/lib/armeabi/mongoose
|
|
|
|
|
- Using the adb tool (you need to have Android SDK installed for that),
|
|
|
|
|
push the generated mongoose binary to `/data/local` folder on device.
|
|
|
|
|
- From adb shell, navigate to `/data/local` and execute `./mongoose`.
|
|
|
|
|
- To test if the server is running fine, visit your web-browser and
|
|
|
|
|
navigate to `http://127.0.0.1:8080` You should see the `Index of /` page.

Notes:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- `jni` stands for Java Native Interface. Read up on Android NDK if you want
|
|
|
|
|
to know how to interact with the native C functions of mongoose in Android
|
|
|
|
|
Java applications.
|
|
|
|
|
- TODO: A Java application that interacts with the native binary or a
|
|
|
|
|
shared library.
