Gradle Plugin for releasing Android apps to fdroid
In local.properties add a line (similar to sdk.dir)
fdroid.dir=/opt/fdroidserver // adjust to your environment
Apply the F-Droid plugin
plugins {
id "org.openintents.fdroid" version "0.2"
}
Import meta data from the version control system (like gitlab, github) that is currently used for the project. This creates a file with the meta data of the app. You might want to edit this file and add more details.
./gradlew fdroidImport
Rewrite your meta data to make sure they can be read by machines.
./gradlew fdroidRewriteMeta
Check for fdroid meta data lint issues before building your app.
./gradlew fdroidLint
Build your application with fdroid
./gradlew fdroidBuild
Then submit your meta data to fdroid.org
