As of cordova-android 8.1 there is new support for producing Android Application Bundles (aab).
This was done as via apache/cordova-android#764
Documentation is ... minimal but the following does work
$ cordova build android --release -- --packageType=bundle
...
BUILD SUCCESSFUL in 6s
49 actionable tasks: 15 executed, 34 up-to-date
Built the following bundle(s):
[path]/platforms/android/app/build/outputs/bundle/release/app.aab
This plugin's type
argument appears to be an ios only flag however.

You can add a build.json
to your cordova project with the following content
{
"android": {
"release": {
"packageType": "bundle"
}
}
}

@Almouro - Is there any plan on supporting this officially? Looks like CORDOVA_ANDROID_RELEASE_BUILD_PATH
will always be assigned an .apk
file extension, so some manual renaming will be needed in the interim.

+1 for official support and having the correct path in CORDOVA_ANDROID_RELEASE_BUILD_PATH
