Description
Support for App Manager to be built-in to a ROM as the installer application.
Uses Build variants to separate platform and standard implementations.
PR: https://github.com/MuntashirAkon/AppManager/pull/1935
I will likely to combine FabricatedOverlayBuilder into AMFP as it requires a custom implementation of the Idmap2 service to create the overlays.
Features:
- [X] Uninstaller
- [ ] Unarchiver / Archiver
- [ ] SSAID Editor Functionality see System Server Impl
- [X] Session Installer
- [ ] Session Installer Currently works by reading all the data from a session then installing the selected app, needs to be a separate feature for overwriting the session install, under normal situation we need to approve the installation not install it ourselves.
- [ ] Allow installing an app with permissions already configured, can be done with the shell as well, will need to back-port the feature to adb as well.
- [ ] Handling of android.permission.REQUEST_INSTALL_PACKAGE, a discussion of this feature need to be done in depth as besides the cts verification rules there is quite a few ways to handle the use of the permission by apps.
- [ ] Internal or external handling of "known" installer apps, that bypass the install dialog, while there is a install in background feature already in AM is should only be used for known apps so that malicious apps can't background install without user interaction.
- [X] Override normal "Self Destruct" feature in AM as users can't update platform version on there own, and can't be left without critical feature required by the OS.
- [X] Override intent list for Interceptor to avoid system crash with two "installers" present.
- [X] Android.bp and other soong files needed by the lineageOS/AOSP build system.
- [ ] System Server impl of AMServer for interacting with system_system gid and pid directly. also means that AM doesn't require use of id 1000 in manifest if it can access it via server instead.
- [ ] Use System Debugging flag for logging instead of requiring debug build.
