QtQuick Rapid Prototyping with Terrarium

Write QML Everywhere, See Result Instantly

Get It on Google Play

Terrarium is now available on Google Play! And you can find it for Mac OSX or Ubuntu Linux (amd64 / i386) too! Please refer to the install section on project website.

Notes on Publish QML App to Google Play

Build your code normally with qmake && make, install it to a destination, say, android-terrarium:

make install INSTALL_ROOT=../android-terrarium

Pack and sign the APK by androiddeployqt command:

~/Qt5/5.3/android_armv7/bin/androiddeployqt --input android-libTerrarium.so-deployment-settings.json --output ../android-terrarium --release --sign ../TerrariumApp.keystore TerrariumApp

Here's the catch:

• There's a ANDROID_DEPLOYMENT_DEPENDENCIES variable for qmake profile, here's my reference
• androiddeployqt invokes SDK tools and changes project name to "QtApp" every time, that also overwritten build.xml. I fixed it by using a script workaround..
• Default AndroidManifest located at Qt5/5.3/android_armv7/src/android/java/AndroidManifest.xml, things you must change are package name, android:icon, uses-permission and uses-feature. Please refer to file on Github

Let's write QML everywhere!
