MeshChat on Android

It's possible to run on Android from source, using Termux.

You will need to install a few extra dependencies and make a change to requirements.txt.

pkg upgrade
pkg install git
pkg install nodejs-lts
pkg install python-pip
pkg install rust
pkg install binutils
pkg install build-essential

You should now be able to follow the how to use it instructions above.

Before running pip install -r requirements.txt, you will need to comment out the cx_freeze dependency. It failed to build on my Android tablet, and is not actually required for running from source.

nano requirements.txt

Ensure the cx_freeze line is updated to #cx_freeze

Note: Building wheel for cryptography may take a while on Android.

Once MeshChat is running via Termux, open your favourite Android web browser, and navigate to http://localhost:8000

Note: The default AutoInterface may not work on your Android device. You will need to configure another interface such as TCPClientInterface.
