An APK parsing tool and library for Go.
apkstat is a basic CLI tool for printing APK manifests and binary XML files.
Usage of apkstat:
-apk string
APK to print binary XML from
-xml string
binary XML file to print (Android manifest is default)
-xmlres string
well-known XML resource to print. Must be one of 'network-security' or 'extraction-rules'
-apk must be specified. If -xml is specified, apkstat will attempt to print
that file in the APK ZIP hierarchy. If it isn't, apkstat will pretty print the
Android manifest. If -xmlres is specified, it will pretty print the given XML
resource.
The main entry point for apkstat is the APK type, which you can create an
instance of with the apk.Open and apk.OpenWithConfig functions.
If you need to do lower-level parsing (which is usually unnecessary), you can
open resource tables and Android binary XML files directly with NewResTable()
and NewXMLFile() respectively.
Example usage:
package main
import (
"fmt"
"github.com/accrescent/apkstat"
)
func main() {
apk, err := apk.Open("accrescent.apk")
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
manifest := apk.Manifest()
fmt.Println("App ID:", manifest.Package)
fmt.Println("App version code:", manifest.VersionCode)
fmt.Println("App version name:", manifest.VersionName)
for _, p := range *manifest.UsesPermissions {
fmt.Println("Requested permission:", p.Name)
}
