Android Omni Development

[Daniel Joyner]

Would it be possible to run Omni on an Android Phone? Has anyone seen this or heard of this? Any pointers in the right direction would be very much appreciated. 

Thank you,

Daniel Joyner

Omni is a python application that relies on openssl. So you would need to build against the openssl supplied with android. There are a few approaches out there for doing python on Android. But whether those will give you the python libraries used by Omni, I do not know and am not completely hopeful.

You may have better luck if you
- reserve a VM using GENI
- Install & configure Omni on that VM
 - and then save that disk image, or the script you use to quickly install and configure your omni on a VM, so when you give up that VM you can get back to that state
- Use an Android SSH client to connect to your VM and run Omni from there.
For that, use something like:

If you find something that works for you, share it with the community!
