Setup

Requirements

• Have Google Cloud SDK installed (how to install Google Cloud SDK?). This is optional, you can just set a flag to true in your gradle.properties file to ignore this step.

Steps

Clone the repository

git clone https://github.com/Artenes/JokesApp

Add the following variable to your gradle.properties file (~/.gradle/gradle.properties)

JokesApp_UseFakeServer=false

If you set this variable to true, then it will not be required to have Google Cloud SDK installed. The library that serves the puns will be accessed directly by the app.

Finally, import the project in Android Studio.

Before running the app or the tests, run in the terminal

gradlew appengineRun

for this you must have installed the Google Cloud Endpoint Server in your machine.
