As of version 7.7.23 we have now SWI-Prolog running on Android under termux. With the exception of JPL it is passing all tests, including saved states.

SWI-Prolog is available as a standard package and can be installed using

pkg install swi-prolog

After installation you can run it by typing this in the termux terminal:

$ swipl

?- write('Hello, swipl on Android!').

true.

Building it yourself

SWI-Prolog for android is built with the docker file used by termux to build packages.

The forked termux-packages repository contains the scripts to build the SWI-Prolog deb files for Android termux, as well as ossp-uuid.

The run-docker script below downloads and runs the docker container, which in turn builds SWI-Prolog and all its dependencies. You need docker installed and running on your build host.

To build the deb files yourself, do the following:

git clone -b swi-prolog https://github.com/erlanger/termux-packages
cd termux-packages
./scripts/run-docker.sh ./build-package.sh -a arm -f swi-prolog

You should now have the `.deb` files in the debs directory.

Unsupported packages

bdb, odbc, space

Test results

All tests passing.
