**Deprecation Warning**

Textile Threads v1 are being deprecated. Please follow our ongoing work on v2 on both the [go-textile-threads repo](https://github.com/textileio/go-textile-threads) and the [early preview](https://paper.dropbox.com/doc/Threads-v2-Early-Preview-X8fKsMiTyztuQ1L8CnUng). 

Until Threads v2 release and integration into the Android SDK, this repo should be used for experimental purposes only.

## Install

The Textile Android library is published in [Textile's Bintray Maven repository](https://dl.bintray.com/textile/maven).
You can install it using Gradle.

First, you'll need to add Textile's Bintray Maven repository to you project's top level `build.gradle` in the `allProjects.repositories` section:

```cmd
allprojects {
    repositories {
        ...
        maven { url 'https://dl.bintray.com/textile/maven' }
        maven { url 'https://jitpack.io' }
        ...
    }
}
```

Next, add the Textile dependency to your app module's `build.gradle` `dependencies` section, specifying the [latest version available](https://bintray.com/textile/maven/textile/_latestVersion):

```cmd
dependencies {
    ...
    implementation 'io.textile:textile:1.1.0'
    ...
}
```

## Usage

To learn about Textile usage, please head over to the [Textile documentation](https://docs.textile.io/) and be sure to read the [Android getting started guide](https://docs.textile.io/develop/clients/android/).

This repo contains an example project. To run it, clone the repo, build and run the example `app` module.
