- This app is using Parse, the parse API key and client ID are included in this project as I will be migrating the app away from using Parse. For now it is included for this project to build without you creating your own account. There are also sample JSON files in the parse_data_example_json/ folder. So if you want to start migrating to your own solution the files are there.
- Setup a Fabric Account. https://fabric.io/dashboard
- Get your Fabric API Key and Client key, change it in the file: /app/fabric-sample.properties and rename the file to fabric.properties
- Go generate a google-services.json file by following the instructions here: https://developers.google.com/mobile/add?platform=android You will need to select App Invites API and Google Analytics and enter your SHA-1 of your debug keystore.
- If you wish to build a release version you will need to create your own keystore file and edit the password values in the following file - (create a version of the file without the .sample extension): release-keystore.properties.sample
