This is the next generation Ghostery Browser for Android based on Firefox.

To build this project follow these instructions. Please, notice that the modified Mozilla Firefox source code is inside the mozilla-release folder: before running any command from the link above, you should enter the mozilla-release folder (cd <project_root_folder>/mozilla-release). The build process is divided in 5 main steps:

1. Dependencies installation

   Performed by the ./mach bootstrap command. It is a one time operation and it will install all the extra software you need to properly compile the software.

2. Config file creation

   <project-root>/mozilla-release/mozconfig is the file where you can specify all the build options. An example of how to configure the Firefox build system to pick up a folder can be found here and in <project-root>/mozconfigs.

3. Build

   Performed by the ./mach build command. You have to run this every time you change the mozconfig file.

4. Package

   Performed by the ./mach package command. It prepares (and translates) the resources to be included in the final APK and build it. You have to run this every time you change a resource file (i.e. translations).

5. Install

   Performed by the ./mach install command. It rebuilds the APK and pushes it to an attached device or emulator.

Here is a list of utility scripts you can find inside the utils folder:

1. startemu.sh

   It makes easy to run an emulator from the command line by presenting a list of the already available emulators (i.e. those created using Android Studio).

2. forward.sh

   It forwards the port 6000 to the Firefox debug socket if it exists. It will ask for the branding you want to connect to (i.e. Cliqz, Ghosthery, etc.).

3. multibuild.sh

   This script builds a multi locale apk given the branding and the desired architecture (i.e. arm, x86).
