DroidFS relies on modified versions of the original encrypted filesystems programs to open volumes. [CryFS](https://github.com/cryfs/cryfs) is written in C++ while [gocryptfs](https://github.com/rfjakob/gocryptfs) is written in Go. Thus, building DroidFS requires the compilation of native code. However, for the sake of simplicity, the application has been designed in a modular way: you can build a version of DroidFS that supports both Gocryptfs and CryFS, or only one of the two.
You also need to manually install the [Android SDK](https://developer.android.com/studio/index.html#command-tools) and the [Android Native Development Kit (NDK)](https://developer.android.com/ndk/downloads) (r23 versions are recommended).
If you want a support for Gocryptfs volumes, you must install [Go](https://golang.org/doc/install) and libssl:
Retrieve your Android NDK installation path, usually something like `/home/\<user\>/Android/SDK/ndk/\<NDK version\>`. Then, make it available in your shell:
```
$ export ANDROID_NDK_HOME="<yourndkpath>"
```
Start by compiling FFmpeg:
```
$ cd app/ffmpeg
$ ./build.sh ffmpeg
```
## libgocryptfs
This step is only required if you want Gocryptfs support.
```
$ cd app/libgocryptfs
$ OPENSSL_PATH="./openssl-1.1.1p" ./build.sh
```
## Compile APKs
Gradle build libgocryptfs and libcryfs by default.
If you want to build DroidFS with support for both Gocryptfs and CryFS, just run:
```
$ ./gradlew assembleRelease
```
# Sign APKs
If the build succeeds, you will find the unsigned APKs in `app/build/outputs/apk/release/`. These APKs need to be signed in order to be installed on an Android device.
If you don't already have a keystore, you can create a new one by running:
