ByteX is a bytecode plugin platform based on Android Gradle Transform Api and ASM. (Maybe you can think of it as a socket with unlimited plugs?) In the apk building process, each plugin is completely independent. It not only can run independently from the ByteX host, but also can be automatically integrated into the host into a single Transform along with other plugins. What's more, each plugin's code is decoupled from one another, as well as their host, which makes it extensible and highly efficient for the development of new plugins. If all features are developed as a separate plugin, each plugin will cost 10+s, and the compilation time will increase linearly. But if the iterative development in only one plugin module will make it more and more cluttered, for the code is deeply coupled. So an idea was raised. It could make sense to build a bytecode plugin platform, and the new feature can be extended based on it as a new plugin.
Features
- Code reuse
- Plugin code is isolated and decoupled from each other
- Platformization makes Transform more efficient
- Plugins are automatically and seamlessly integrated into a single Transform to improve the efficiency of processing
- Class files are processed in multiple threads concurrently, making full use of the CPU resources of your machine
- Plugin portability is outstanding. Each plugin can be separated from the ByteX host, working as a transform independently
