# Remote Numpad (Android project)

## Introduction

This project is a part of a trio of projects:

* Remote Numpad (this project): Written in Kotlin, this is the client which

runs on an Android device and sends the user's inputs to the computer.

* [Remote Numpad Server](https://github.com/guillaumevpayet/remote-numpad-server):

Written in Kotlin, this is the server that runs on the computer and receives

the inputs from the Android device and simulates the key presses.

* [Cocoa Native Server](https://github.com/guillaumevpayet/cocoa-native-server):

Written in Objective-C, this is the Bluetooth server library for MacOS X. It

receives the Bluetooth data and passes it on to the Remote Numpad Server.

## Description

This is an Android project written in Kotlin and compatible with Android

devices down to API level 16. It is made up of 2 activities, the main

*NumpadActivity* and the *SettingsActivity*.

The *NumpadActivity* is the activity that displays the numpad using a

*ConstraintLayout* and sending them through an *IConnectionInterface* that is

decided by the user preferences. So far, wifi, classic Bluetooth (RFCOMM) and

the Bluetooth HID profile are supported but BLE and Wifi-Direct are intended

to be implemented in the future.

The *SettingsActivity* is the activity which allows the user to select the

interface through which to send the inputs and the location of the server.

A short tutorial on how to use Remote Numpad can be found

[on Youtube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xTfQparcgg4) and the latest stable release can be

obtained from the

[Google Play Store](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.guillaumepayet.remotenumpad&hl=en_US)

## Compilation

The project is set up with Android Studio so it can be compiled using Gradle

or imported by any Gradle-capable and Android-capable IDE (e.g.: Android

Studio, IntelliJ, Eclipse) and then compiled.

## Contributing

This is not a main project for me so help is very appreciated. Anyone is

welcome to contribute to this project (issues, requests, pull requests).
