Magisk

How to build Magisk

Building has been tested on 3 major platforms: macOS, Ubuntu, Windows 10

Environment Requirements

  1. Python 3.5+: run build.py script
  2. Java Development Kit (JDK) 8: Compile Magisk Manager and sign zips
  3. Latest Android SDK: ANDROID_HOME environment variable should point to the Android SDK folder
  4. Android NDK: Install NDK along with SDK ($ANDROID_HOME/ndk-bundle), or specify custom path ANDROID_NDK
  5. (Windows Only) Python package Colorama: Install with pip install colorama, used for ANSI color codes

Instructions and Notes

  1. Magisk can be built with the latest NDK (r16 as of writing), however binaries released officially will be built with NDK r10e due to ELF incompatibilities with the binaries built from the newer NDKs.
  2. The easiest way to setup the environment is by importing the folder as an Android Studio project. The IDE will download required components and construct the environment for you. You still have to set the ANDROID_HOME environment variable to point to the SDK path.
  3. Run build.py with argument -h to see the built-in help message. The -h option also works for each supported actions, e.g. ./build.py binary -h
  4. Build everything with build.py, don't directly call gradlew or ndk-build, since most requires special setup / dependencies.
  5. By default, build.py will build binaries and Magisk Manager in debug mode. If you want to build Magisk Manager in release mode (through the flag --release), you will need to place a Java Keystore file at release_signature.jks to sign Magisk Manager's APK.
