temi Shortcut

Automatically creates a Launcher shortcut on temi that links to a pre-installed APK.

These scripts have currently been tested on:

  • Ubuntu 18.04

Prerequisites

Scripts in this repository require the Android SDK, see Android SDK installation instructions for installation details. Once installed, export the SDK's path to the ANDROID_HOME environment variable, for example:

export ANDROID_HOME=/path/to/Android/Sdk/

To run package_name.sh, you will need aapt installed in /usr/bin/:

sudo apt install aapt

TL;DR

Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/hapi-robo/temi-shortcut.git
cd temi-shortcut/

Create shortcut:

./shortcut.sh <package-name> <shortcut-name>

For example, to create a shortcut for Chrome:

./shortcut.sh com.android.chrome "Chrome"

The file chrome_shortcut.apk should then appear in the same directory. Install it onto your device, along with the package that it links to. For this example:

adb install chrome.apk
adb install chrome_shortcut.apk

APK Package-Name

If the APK is already installed on the device, you can look for it using:

adb shell pm list packages

If the package is on your computer, you can run the following script:

./package_name.sh <apk>
