  1. Install Android Studio
  2. Install NDK:
    1. Tools -> SDK Manager -> SDK Tools Tab
    2. Click [x] Show Package Details
    3. Select NDK (Side by Side) -> 21.4.7075529
    4. Apply

Linux

export ANDROID_HOME=~/Android/Sdk
export ANDROID_NDK_HOME=~/Android/Sdk/ndk/21.4.7075529

MacOS

export ANDROID_HOME=~/Library/Android/sdk
export ANDROID_NDK_HOME=~/Library/Android/sdk/ndk/21.4.7075529

Preparing for build

Complete the following steps to prepare the Matter build:

  1. Check out the Matter repository.

  2. Run bootstrap (only required first time)

    source scripts/bootstrap.sh
    

Building & Running the app

This is the simplest option. In the command line, run the following command from the top Matter directory:

./scripts/build/build_examples.py --target android-x86-java-matter-controller build

The Java executable file java-matter-controller will be generated at out/android-x86-java-matter-controller/bin/
