How to Create an XAPK Package using xapk-config

Welcome to the guide on creating an XAPK (eXpansion APK) package for your Android app using the xapk_config script.

Prerequisites

• Python: Ensure you have Python installed on your system.

• Clone Repository: Clone the xapk-config repository to your local machine:

  git clone https://github.com/knightfall-cs/xapk-config.git
  cd xapk-config

Steps

1. Run the Script to Create the manifest.json File:

   Open a terminal/command prompt and navigate to the xapk-config directory:

   cd path/to/xapk-config

   Run the script:

   python xapk_config.py

2. Prepare Your Files:

   Organize your app files as follows:

   • Android/obb/{PackageName}/main.{VersionCode}.{PackageName}.obb
   • icon.png
   • manifest.json
   • {AppName}.apk

   Replace {PackageName}, {VersionCode}, and {AppName} with your actual values.

   📂 Example.xapk(zip)
    ├── Android/
    │    ├── obb/
    │    │    ├── com.android.example/
    │    │    │    ├── main.1.com.android.example.obb
    │    │    │    ├── patch.1.com.android.example.obb
    ├── icon.png
    ├── manifest.json
    ├── example.apk
   

3. Create the XAPK:

   • Package all the files (including the generated manifest.json) into a ZIP file.
   • Rename the ZIP file's extension from .zip to .xapk.

Done.
