app/build.gradle correction required

[mnarasimhan02]

in app/build.gradle file

buildTypes.each { it.buildConfigField 'String', 'OPEN_WEATHER_MAP_API_KEY', MyOpenWeatherMapApiKey

needs to be corrected.

The MyOpenWeatherMapApiKey should be specified within '"key"' i.e, '"actual_key"'

This may not not be an issue, but needs comment or correction in the source code else the buildconfig.Java will throw an error

Alternatively it is possible to define MyOpenWeatherMapApiKey in a gradle.properties file. For details see Chapter 12. The Build Environment in the gradle documentation.

This is how the variable is defined in the gradle.properties file:

MyOpenWeatherMapApiKey="apikey"

This can be in the gradle.properties file in the project or in the user home folder (e.g. C:\Users\Bob\.gradle\gradle.properties on Windows).

I totally agree that there should be a comment or some info in the README file.
