A simple gradle plugin that publishes android builds to any track in the Google Play store. Flavors and variants are supported as well.
To use, add the following to your build.gradle
file:
buildscript {
repositories {
mavenCentral()
}
dependencies {
classpath 'com.savillians.gradle:android-publisher:0.5+'
// May need to add guava if you have problems with com.google.common.hash.HashCode.fromString(Ljava/lang/String;)Lcom/google/common/hash/HashCode;
//classpath 'com.google.guava:guava:18.0'
}
}
apply plugin: com.savillians.gradle.androidpublisher.AndroidPublisherPlugin
android {
...
}
androidPublisher {
applicationName = "Company-Name-Product-Name/1.0"
packageName = "<package name>"
serviceAccountEmail = "<service account email>"
serviceAccountKeyFile = file('<p12 keyfile - NOT the json file>')
track = "alpha" // default, don't need to specify
variantName = "release" // default, don't need to specify
}
Make sure the service account you create has "release manager" permissions, download the p12 key file and put it in the project's directory. Then run this command:
gradle androidPublish
OR
./gradlew androidPublish
That will send it to Google Play using the credentials you specified.
The variantName
parameter is a combination of the flavor and build type. If no flavors are used, it is comprised
entirely of the build type. For example, if there are 2 flavors, "full" and "demo", and two build types, "debug" and
"release", then the potential variant names are:
