Practical overview

When it fits

Use Solanakt when implementing Solana protocol interactions inside a Kotlin Android app and you want library support for accounts, transactions, RPC, or sockets.

Who it is for

  • Android developers building Kotlin applications with Solana account or transaction workflows.
  • Developers integrating Solana RPC calls or socket-based functionality into an app.

Documented uses

  • Generate key pairs and create or validate BIP39 seed phrases.
  • Sign and send Solana transactions using an app-provided account or signer.
  • Configure an RPC endpoint and make supported Solana RPC calls, including balance queries.
  • Use socket support and suspending functions in Kotlin app workflows.
Before you choose

Requirements & limits

The repository is public and identifies the project as open source under the MIT license. The README documents Gradle installation through JitPack or GitHub Packages and lists Android 19+ as a requirement.

  • The README lists Android 19+ as a requirement.
  • The app must provide its own account or signer architecture; the Account interface does not handle secret-key storage.
  • The included HotAccount holds a secret key in a variable, which the README cautions may not be secure for permanent storage.
  • The README names okhttp3, bitcoinj, and eddsa among dependencies and says RxKotlin is optional.
  • The library is an integration component, not a separate hosted API service.

Check current requirements in the official documentation. Source-based guidance does not mean OpenViST has run or independently tested this project.

Source-based practical guide

Add Solanakt to an Android app with JitPack

Declare the JitPack repository and Solanakt dependency in a Gradle app or module build.

Before you start

  • An Android app or module using Gradle.
  • Android 19 or later.

Steps

  1. Add maven { url 'https://jitpack.io' } to the build's repositories.

  2. Add implementation 'com.github.metaplex-foundation:SolanaKT:{version}' to the app or module dependencies, replacing {version} with the version to use.

Expected outcome

The Gradle build declares Solanakt as a dependency from JitPack.

Guide limitations

  • This covers dependency declaration only; it does not configure RPC, accounts, or transaction operations.
