Features

abifa creates a Makefile according to values of Environment variables and provides the following features through the use of Build targets:

  • cross-compile cpython for Android
  • install python (the result of the build) on an Android emulator
  • run python as a command or interactively on this emulator
  • run the buildbottest target of the cpython Makefile

A docker image on Docker hub can be used instead of installing all the tools required by abifa as explained in the Installation on Linux section of the documentation. The Docker section describes how to run and optionally how to build an abifa docker image.
