Build-IT-Bigger is simple joke telling android app deployed on GCE(Google Cloud Endpoints). Instead of fetching jokes directly from java library, This app uses GCE development server to pull jokes from server via async task.
This app contains adMob test ad in Free flavor.
This app consists of four modules:
- A Java library that provides jokes
- A Google Cloud Endpoints (GCE) project that serves those jokes
- An Android Library containing an activity for displaying jokes
- An Android app that fetches jokes from the GCE module and passes them to the Android Library for display
- Shared code between Paid and Free Flavors.
- This app has factor reusable functionality into a java library
- This app has factor reusable Android functionality for an Android library
- Gradle App Engine plugin to deploy backend
- Configured Test suits runs against the local App Engine development server.
GCE has a straight forward workflow and it is optimized for docker container environment, so we can host our app anywhere docker is supported.
Advantage of using this app is we can use Google Cloud Endpoints AppEngine with ios, Android or web client.
For this app GCE runs on localhost 8080 port. and uses API version "v-1"
