ippiparray is a widget which displays your device's current IP address (on the off-chance that it is even remotely working --- but not working remotely). It does not have a launcher aspect, it is only a widget. There are no dependencies for ippiparray. ippiparray is in whatever the development stage before extreme beta is ... I can't stress that enough. At this early stage, it does not detect the initial IP address on installation --- it only detects subsequent changes.
Installing ippiparray requires the Android SDK with the android executable on the path. Inside your ippiparray checkout directory, type:
android update project --path .
This will generate the local.properties and proguard configuration required. The android update project command also provides you with other project configuration options, such as the target Android OS. For a full list of configuration options, consult the Android Developer Documentation.
ippiparray has been written to operate on any 2.2 OS of Android (Froyo). However, it is possible to build ippiparray for a different target OS. As mentioned above, using android update project is the approach to specify the target OS. In order to see a list of OS that your Android tools currently support, type:
android list targets
The output of this will provide each supported OS with an id. This id should be specified as the value for the --target parameter in the android update project command. E.g.
android update project --path . --target android-8
Installation and deployment to your system (connected device or running emulator) is achieved through the ant build tools. Specifically:
ant debug install
After installing the application, you will need to add the widget to one of your screens. This will be device-dependent (probably).
