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:0.4'
        // 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.

Flavors

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:

• fullDebug
• fullRelease
• demoDebug
• demoRelease
