Manual installation

Android

1. Open up android/app/src/main/java/[...]/MainActivity.java

• Add import com.reactlibrary.RNAvsPackage; to the imports at the top of the file
• Add new RNAvsPackage() to the list returned by the getPackages() method

2. Append the following lines to android/settings.gradle:

   include ':react-native-avs'
   project(':react-native-avs').projectDir = new File(rootProject.projectDir, 	'../node_modules/react-native-avs/android')
   

3. Insert the following lines inside the dependencies block in android/app/build.gradle:

     compile project(':react-native-avs')
   

Post Installation

1. Currently, we'll have to increase the min-sdk version of andorid to 21 from 16 which involves changing the android/app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml file. Edit the android:minSdkVersion="16" line from 16 to 21.
2. Add the multiDexEnabled true line to android/app/build.gradle file

android {
    defaultConfig {
        multiDexEnabled true
        ...
    }
    ...
}

3. Follow the process for creating a connected device detailed in https://developer.amazon.com/appsandservices/solutions/alexa/alexa-voice-service/getting-started-with-the-alexa-voice-service
4. Follow the instructions for adding your key and preparing the Login with Amazon activity from the 'Login with Amazon' Android Project guide
5. Add your api_key.txt file (part of the Login with Amazon process detailed in the link above) to the app/src/main/assets folder.
