google chrome os - What will be the side-loading and debugging mechanism for Android apps on ChromeOS? -
i've gone through on http://www.chromium.org/chromium-os/android-apps , watched io video , there doesn't seem mention of side-loading (and debugging) mechanism available developing/testing android apps on chromeos be?
i know arc used adb on desktops not chromebooks
given new implementation different , full android framework in linux container , has access usb, adb available prupose? using adb useful remote debugging since devtools runs adb client
edit: of 9 aug 2016 there official documentation available.
unless in developer mode, won't able enable unknown sources. in order side load apps need put device developer mode (instructions here - follow steps chromebook pixel 2015).
once in dev mode, go chrome settings > app settings > security > unknown sources (move right)
after enabling developer mode can side load apps in 1 of 2 ways:
- upload .apk google drive or send via email, , open android app equivalent (drive , gmail respectively)
- transfer .apk downloads folder of chromebook using thumb drive, , install via file manager android app
- transfer .apk on ethernet device, using vt-2 access command line on chromebook
here sample walkthru of setting ethernet connection approach 3:
- on desktop - plug ethernet cable desktop
- on desktop - set ip: ifconfig eth1 10.xx.xx.xx netmask 255.255.255.254
- on chromebook - go vt-2: ctrl-alt-fwd (a.k.a. f2)
- on chromebook - plug ethernet chromebook
- on chromebook - set ip ethernet: ifconfig eth1 10.xx.xx.xx netmask 255.255.255.254
- use scp transfer .apk file desktop chromebook
