Welcome

System.out.println("Welcome to CampusSynergy");

This is a getting started guide for new SAAMD (mobi) developers.

1.Learn Java! (1325 OOP) or go to thenewboston.com (bucky is great)

2.Install Android Developer Tools + SDK.

-If you feel lazy just download the ADT bundle (Eclipse bundle) for your platform. we will be using eclipse since android studio is still in beta as of the time that i am writing this.(Aug 1, 2013).

-SDK Download link: http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html

-If you dont know what is your platform, you are reading this by mistake, please close.

3. Learn Android Development.

-Excellent tutorials can be found on thenewboson.com, mybringback.com

4.Install the EGIT plugin for eclipse

-HELP->INSTALL NEW SOFTWARE, or using the eclipse software enter on newer eclipse builds.

5.Clone this repository.

$ git clone https://bitbucket.org/zdveloper/campussynergy.git

6.Configure you project to have it build.

-Read this: https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/android/

-More Specific: https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/android/start#installing_the_google_maps_android_v2_api

-Note: some options might not apply since we already configured most of the stuff for you inside the code.

Stuff you definitely need to configure:

a. External Build Libraries: google-play-services_lib, details in the above link.

b. SDK debug map key inside the AndroidManifest.xml (this wont be required once we get the release keys).

##Feel free to ignore the rest for now.

Wiki features

This wiki uses the Markdown syntax.

The wiki itself is actually a git repository, which means you can clone it, edit it locally/offline, add images or any other file type, and push it back to us. It will be live immediately.

Go ahead and try:

$ git clone https://bitbucket.org/zdveloper/campussynergy.git/wiki

Wiki pages are normal files, with the .md extension. You can edit them locally, as well as creating new ones.

Syntax highlighting

You can also highlight snippets of text (we use the excellent Pygments library).

Here's an example of some Python code:


def wiki_rocks(text):
    formatter = lambda t: "funky"+t
    return formatter(text)

You can check out the source of this page to see how that's done, and make sure to bookmark [the vast library of Pygment lexers][lexers], we accept the 'short name' or the 'mimetype' of anything in there. [lexers]: http://pygments.org/docs/lexers/

Have fun!
