+Running Wrench on Android devices.
+==================================
+
+Setting up the environment:
+---------------------------
+
+Follow the steps at https://github.com/rust-windowing/android-rs-glue#setting-up-your-environment, with exceptions:
+ - No need to download the Android NDK and SDK, we will use the ones downloaded by Gecko in ~/.mozbuild/
+
+ - Install both the i686-linux-android and armv7-linux-androideabi rust
+ targets, as the APK will include native libraries with both architectures.
+
+ - Don't install currently published version of cargo-apk, as it is missing the following
+ required patch: https://github.com/rust-windowing/android-ndk-rs/pull/236
+
+ Instead, install the git master version like so:
+ cargo install --git https://github.com/rust-windowing/android-ndk-rs cargo-apk
+
+ - Consider adding ~/.mozbuild/android-sdk-linux/platform-tools to your path, for the adb commands below.
+
+Compiling and running:
+----------------------
+
+ Compile wrench:
+ cd wrench
+ export ANDROID_SDK_ROOT=$HOME/.mozbuild/android-sdk-linux # exact path may vary
+ export ANDROID_NDK_ROOT=$HOME/.mozbuild/android-ndk-r21d # exact path may vary
+ cargo apk build --lib
+
+ Install the APK:
+ adb install -r ../target/debug/apk/wrench.apk
+
+ Set command line arguments and env vars for wrench:
+ adb shell
+ mkdir /data/data/org.mozilla.wrench/files/wrench
+ echo "load reftests/aa/rounded-rects.yaml" >/data/data/org.mozilla.wrench/files/wrench/args
+ echo "env: WRENCH_REFTEST_CONDITION_EMULATOR=1" >>/data/data/org.mozilla.wrench/files/wrench/args # If you're using the emulator
+ echo "env: WRENCH_REFTEST_CONDITION_DEVICE=1" >>/data/data/org.mozilla.wrench/files/wrench/args # If you're using a device
+ exit
+
+ Push reftests (if you need these files for what you're doing):
+ adb push reftests /data/data/org.mozilla.wrench/files/wrench/
+
+ Run the application:
+ adb shell am start -n org.mozilla.wrench/android.app.NativeActivity
+ (or click the icon in the launcher)
+
+ Inspect the output:
+ stdout and stderr will be redirected to the logcat, however, long lines will be truncated
+ meaning the reftest analyzer will not work correctly. We therefore additionally redirect the
+ output to the file /data/data/org.mozilla.wrench/files/wrench/stdout.
+
+Release mode:
+-------------
+
+ Building in release does work as well. Use the following steps to compile wrench:
+ cd wrench
+ export ANDROID_SDK_ROOT=$HOME/.mozbuild/android-sdk-linux # exact path may vary
+ export ANDROID_NDK_ROOT=$HOME/.mozbuild/android-ndk-r21d # exact path may vary
+ cargo apk build --lib --release
+
+ Now the APK at ../target/release/apk/wrench.apk
+ should be signed and installable (you may need to uninstall the debug APK first if you
+ have that installed).
+
+Running reftests like a boss (on a local emulator):
+---------------------------------------------------
+
+ First, compile wrench as described above (debug mode).
+ Then, from the root gecko source dir, run:
+ ./mach python testing/mozharness/scripts/android_wrench.py --config testing/mozharness/configs/android/wrench.py
+ This will automatically do the following:
+ - Download the blessed android AVDs from taskcluster
+ - Start the emulator (using your ~/.mozbuild/android-sdk-linux emulator binaries)
+ - Install the debug APK (from gfx/wr/wrench/target/debug/apk/wrench.apk)
+ - Copy the reftests to the sdcard
+ - Write an args file to the sdcard
+ - Run wrench
+ - Wait for wrench to finish running
+ - Scrape the logcat for reftest output
+ Other logs (e.g. full logcat) can be found in your ~/.wrench/logs folder. Note that
+ this will also leave the android emulator running, so repeating the command will be
+ even faster the next time around as it won't need to redownload the AVDs or restart
+ the emulator. It will reinstall the APK and re-push the reftests folder though.
+
+ If you want to use a release APK (runs much faster), build it as per the "Release mode"
+ instructions above and set the WRENCH_APK env var to point to the APK:
+ to point to it:
+ export WRENCH_APK=gfx/wr/target/release/apk/wrench.apk
+ ./mach python testing/mozharness/scripts/android_wrench.py --config testing/mozharness/configs/android/wrench.py
+
+Running reftests like a boss (on a local device):
+-------------------------------------------------
+
+ Same steps as running on a local emulator, except you need to do this:
+ export DEVICE_SERIAL=<your device's serial>
+ before running the `./mach python` command. You can get the serial of
+ your device by running `adb devices` with the device plugged in. When running
+ on a device, the android_emulator_wrench.py script will skip the steps to
+ download the AVDs and start the emulator.
