Integration guide
(Recommended) Maven integration
-
Add the Alibaba Cloud Maven repository to your project-level build.gradle.
allprojects { repositories { google() jcenter() maven { url "https://maven.aliyun.com/repository/releases" } } } -
Add Queen SDK dependencies to your app-level build.gradle.
// The Queen SDK package. implementation "com.aliyun.maliang.android:queen:6.8.1-official-pro" // Optional. The menu component of Queen SDK. implementation "com.aliyun.maliang.android:queen_menu:6.8.1-official-pro-tiny" // Download the menu resources. implementation "com.aliyun.maliang.android:queen_menu:6.8.1-official-pro" // Package the menu resources on your on-premises machine.
Queen SDK and other Alibaba Cloud SDKs such as RTC SDK may contain duplicate native libraries, causing packaging failures. If conflicts occur, add packagingOptions to your build.gradle:
android {
...
compileSdkVersion ...
...
packagingOptions {
pickFirst '**/libMNN.so' // If duplicate libMNN.so files exist, add this line of code.
pickFirst '**/libMNN_CL.so' // If duplicate libMNN_CL.so files exist, add this line of code.
pickFirst '**/libc++_shared.so' // If duplicate libc++_shared.so files exist, add this line of code.
}
...
}
Manual integration
-
Download and decompress the Queen SDK package.
-
Copy the .aar files extracted from the SDK package to the libs folder of your project.
-
Add AAR package dependencies with Gradle.
dependencies { implementation fileTree(include: ['*.aar'], dir: 'libs') } -
Add the following dependency:
dependencies { implementation files('libs/alivc-livepusher-lib-release.aar') } -
Click Sync Now to compile the project.
Configure permissions
Add the following permissions to your AndroidManifest.xml:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_WIFI_STATE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CAMERA" />On Android 6.0 and later, request permissions at runtime:
if (ActivityCompat.checkSelfPermission(this, Manifest.permission.CAMERA)
== PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
// You have obtained the permission.
//...
} else {
// You do not have this permission. Apply for it.
// PERMISSION_REQUEST_CODE specifies the code of the application for the permission. You can set the code to an arbitrary number.
ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(this, new String[]{Manifest.permission.CAMERA}, PERMISSION_REQUEST_CODE);
}
Configure the license
Obtain a Queen SDK license before you proceed. Then configure the license key and license file in your project:
-
The Queen SDK for ApsaraVideo Live and the short video SDK for ApsaraVideo VOD share the same license. Configure it only once, using the latest license file.
-
If your SDK is updated or renewed, update the license:
-
Configure the new license in your project.
Import the license to your project's assets folder, then add two meta-data entries under the application node in AndroidManifest.xml:
com.aliyun.alivc_license.licensekey specifies the license key.
<application
android:icon="@drawable/icon"
android:label="@string/app_name" >
<meta-data
android:name="com.aliyun.alivc_license.licensekey"
android:value="Your LicenseKey"/> // Enter the license key that you obtain.
<meta-data
android:name="com.aliyun.alivc_license.licensefile"
android:value="Your LicenseFile Path"/> // Enter the path of the license file relative to the assets folder. Example: alivc_license/AliVideoCert.crt.
...
</application>
