Embedding Crosswalk without using eclipse, the app is built with python-for-android

I wrapped a Django server with python-for-android and kivy into my android app and use webview to interact with the user. The app currently works flawlessly. Just that I need to support Android 4.1 which is not a chromium webview. So I want to use Crosswalk to replace the default webview. My current build process use ant on Mac terminal, so no eclipse involved. I want to know how to embed Crosswalk without using eclipse. I tried to copy crosswalk jar files into python-for-android/libs folder, it did compile and generate the APK, but the APK crushes every time I open it.

Any suggestions would be highly appreciated.

Follow the guide on their site to a T .. Crosswalk Android Install

I found the procedure easy to follow and worked as expected, until i tried the WebRTC demo. It didn't work using the standard cordova build/run commands, so instead, I used commands found in their WebRTC demo. Crosswalk Example Using Python Build Commands

python make_apk.py --package=org.crosswalkproject.example \
--manifest=xwalk-webrtc/client/manifest.json

You'll need to grab the Android source files from their website (supports x86 and arm), and use it to generate your apk files.

There might be a better way to do this, but this should get you going
