Duplicate AWS Chime SDK locations?
State your question Which is the correct repository of the AWS Chime Android SDK?
Which AWS Services are you utilizing? Chime and Cognito
There appear to be multiple repositories related to the AWS Chime SDK. This repository contains aws-android-sdk-chimesdkmessaging as well as aws-android-sdk-chimesdkidentity. However, there's another repository: https://github.com/aws/amazon-chime-sdk-android.
I have not yet found any definitive information regarding which repository is the "correct" one, as there seems to be a fair amount of conflicting information and examples. build-chat-applications-in-ios-and-android-with-amazon-chime-sdk-messaging references and links to a module in this repository , but then documents like chime-sdk/latest/dg/sdk-for-android link to the other one (https://github.com/aws/amazon-chime-sdk-android).
I'd like to integrate the AWS Chime SDK into an Android app primarily for messaging functionality. Which repository contains the correct SDK, and why are there multiple repositories?
Hi @Orbyt Thank you for your message. The Chime SDK in this repo is primarily code generated cleint APIs to assist in hitting the Chime service APIs.
The Chime SDK here: https://github.com/aws/amazon-chime-sdk-android is actively being developed to not only access the Chime APIs, but also help complete advanced use cases on the Android OS (ex: managing complexities of video calling on the Android OS and all that involves). I would recommend starting at that repo.
This question has been sufficiently answered - we recommend using https://github.com/aws/amazon-chime-sdk-android - please feel free to open a new issue if anything else comes up!
