Magisk

How to build Magisk

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

Environment Requirements

  1. A 64-bit machine: cmake for Android is only available in 64-bit
  2. Python 3.5+: run build.py script
  3. Java Development Kit (JDK) 8: Compile Magisk Manager and sign zips
  4. Latest Android SDK: ANDROID_HOME environment variable should point to the Android SDK folder
  5. Android NDK: Install NDK along with SDK ($ANDROID_HOME/ndk-bundle), or specify custom path ANDROID_NDK
  6. (Windows Only) Colorama: Install Colorama with pip install colorama, used for ANSI color codes
  7. (Unix only) C compiler: Build zipadjust. Windows users can use the pre-built zipadjust.exe

Instructions and Notes

  1. Magisk can be built with the latest NDK (r16 as of writing), however official released binaries will be built with NDK r10e due to ELF incompatibilities with the binaries built from newer NDKs.
  2. The easiest way to setup a working environment is to open Magisk Manager with Android Studio. The IDE will download required components and construct the environment for you. Don't forget to set ANDROID_HOME environment variable to the SDK path.
  3. Run the script with -h as an argument to see the built-in help message. The -h option also works for each supported actions, e.g. ./build.py binary -h
  4. By default, the script 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 your Java Keystore file at release_signature.jks to sign Magisk Manager's APK.
