easyrelease
Gradle plugin for Android projects that helps with signing release APKs.
It does following in Project.afterEvaluate()
:
- reads
versionName
andversionCode
from build.gradle and if not defined there, then it's taken from AndroidManifest.xml - sets each build variant's output file name to project_name-${variant}-${versionName}-${versionCode}.apk
- sets following release buildType properties:
-
zipAlignEnabled true
-
- updates release signingConfig with proper certificate path, keystore password, key alias and key password defined in property file
Status
See the CHANGELOG. Plugin is in early stages. It is based on what we used in our applications and works well for us, but we are sure there are other use-cases or ways it can be improved. It is already available from Maven Central Repository.
Usage
Add to your_app/build.gradle:
buildscript {
repositories {
mavenCentral()
}
dependencies {
classpath 'eu.inloop:easyrelease:0.2.2'
}
}
apply plugin: 'easyrelease'
Create your_app/easyrelease.properties:
KEYSTORE_FILE=path/to/your.keystore
KEYSTORE_PASSWORD=your_keystore_password
KEY_ALIAS=your_key_alias
KEY_PASSWORD=your_key_password
It is recommended to add easyrelease.properties to .gitignore (or similar for your VCS).
