1# Rotary IME: Sample input method for rotary controller 2 3This is a sample IME for use with a rotary controller. It is intentionally very basic so that it's 4easy to understand the code. It doesn't support multiple locales / layouts. It doesn't support 5password fields, numeric fields, etc. 6 7## Building 8``` 9make RotaryIME 10``` 11 12## Installing 13``` 14adb install out/target/product/[hardware]/system/app/RotaryIME/RotaryIME.apk 15``` 16 17## Using 18 19Once installed, configure the `rotary_input_method` string resource in the 20`CarRotaryController` package to refer to this IME: 21``` 22 <string name="rotary_input_method" translatable="false">com.android.car.rotaryime/.RotaryIme</string> 23``` 24Then build and install `CarRotaryController`. There is no need to enable this 25IME or select it; the `RotaryService` will select it automatically in rotary mode. 26
