termux / termux-api
git clone https://github.com/termux/termux-api.git
v0.53.0 · 1y ago
Android add-on app that exposes device hardware and system functions to command-line programs running in Termux.
Why you might care
Needed when scripts in Termux must read sensors, location, clipboard, telephony, or other Android features, since it bridges those APIs to the shell via the termux-api commands. It must be signed with the same key as the main Termux app for permissions to work, and is distributed via F-Droid or per-commit debug builds.
