It is possible to parse some information from the apk file using a tool as mentioned here:
How to parse the AndroidManifest.xml file inside an .apk package
My requirement is to parse information like Application name,description, image urls from a link like :
market://details?id=com.replica.replicaisland
-
Is there any standard way to parse this information without having the apk file ?
-
is there any RSS feed available based on the identifier “com.replica.replicaisland” ?
There is an open source library android-market-api created by some developers which allow you retrieve some basic app info directly from google’s official android market, worth to check it out.
