Building

Yes! Here's a fully working setup to build your Kivy APK using Buildozer on GitHub Actions — no desktop or Termux build needed. ✅

---

🔧 Overview

You'll get:

✅ .apk file as GitHub Actions artifact

✅ Kivy + optional Python packages (e.g. music21, requests, etc.)

✅ Customizable main.py

✅ Buildozer ready-to-go in cloud

1️⃣ main.py — minimal Kivy app

Replace this with your app:

from kivy.app import App from kivy.uix.label import Label

class SridawApp(App): def build(self): return Label(text="🎵 Hello from music21!")

if name == "main": SridawApp().run()

---

2️⃣ buildozer.spec

Here’s a minimal one to get started (supports music21 too):

[app] title = Sridaw package.name = sridaw package.domain = org.sridaw source.dir = . source.include_exts = py,png,jpg,kv,atlas version = 0.1 requirements = python3,kivy,music21 orientation = portrait osx.kivy_version = 2.2.1 android.permissions = INTERNET

[buildozer] log_level = 2 warn_on_root = 1

    buildozer android debug

- name: Upload APK
  uses: actions/upload-artifact@v3
  with:
    name: sridaw.apk
    path: bin/*.apk

---

✅ Final Steps

1. Push this to a GitHub repo (e.g., github.com/yourname/sridaw)

2. Go to Actions tab → Trigger build

3. After a few minutes, download sridaw-0.1-debug.apk from artifacts 🎉

⚠️ Notes

music21 is huge — may cause slow builds or out-of-memory errors on free GitHub tier. If it fails, try with just kivy first.

APK output is unsigned debug build. You can sign it manually later or automate that too.

💬 Want me to generate this as a zip template?

Just say Make the full GitHub repo, and I’ll prepare a .zip with everything.
