Messaging App

Messaging App is the official SMS app for Ubuntu Touch.

Internals

Messaging app relies on:

• history-service for the database backend through Ubuntu.History QML import.
• telephony service for message relay through Ubuntu.TelphonyQML import.
• address-book-app for contact features through Ubuntu.Contacts QML import.

Building with clickable (for local testings)

Note that it will not allow full feature access (url dispatcher, audio playback )

Install clickable, then run:

clickable

For faster build speeds, building app tests is disabled in clickable.json

Building with crossbuilder ( build & install as a deb package )

Some dependencies need to be installed by running:

crossbuilder inst-foreign dh-translations apparmor-easyprof-ubuntu

The app then can be build by running:

crossbuilder

See crossbuilder on github for details.
