Configuration

Mobo creates a ~/.mobo directory, and stores all necessary libraries in there. Android will be installed by default in that location, and used by mobo. If you would like to use the mobo instance of android you can issue the following commands

ANDROID_HOME=~/.mobo/android-sdk
PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME/tools:$ANDROID_HOME/platform-tools

ANDROID_HOME and PATH can also be set in your ~/.bash_profile

Building from source

gem build mobo.gemspec
gem install -l mobo-[version].gem
