🕷 Build and release debug APK from your Android project

action-release-releaseapk

🕷 Build and release release APK when your push

Usage

To use the action simply add the following lines to your .github/workflows/android.yml and provide the required Secrets and Environment variables.

YML

name: Build & Publish Release APK

on:
  push:
    tags:
      - '*'

jobs:
  Gradle:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
    - name: checkout code
      uses: actions/checkout@v2
    - name: setup jdk
      uses: actions/setup-java@v1
      with:
        java-version: 11
    - name: Make Gradle executable
      run: chmod +x ./gradlew
    - name: Build Release APK
      run: ./gradlew assembleRelease
    - name: Releasing using Hub
      uses: VladDaniliuk/action-release-releaseapk@master
      env:
       GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.TOKEN }}
       VERSION_VARIABLE: versionName
       APP_FILE: buildSrc/Android.kt
       APP_FOLDER: ./app/release/app.apk
       CHANGELOG_FILE: ./CHANGELOG.md
       RELEASE_TITLE: New Build
       NAME_VARIABLE: app-release.apk

Secrets

You'll need to provide this secret token to use the action (for publishing the APK). Enter these secrets in your Settings > Secrets

• TOKEN: Create a new access token with repo access.

I am unsure as to why using the default GITHUB_TOKEN provided universally will fail to authorize the user. This is the only workaround that I'd found.

Environment Variables

You'll need to provide these environment variables to specify exactly what information is needed to build the APK.

• APP_FOLDER: full path to apk
• APP_FILE: file to search for the versin. This action only used with kotlins buildSrc
• CHANGELOG_FILE: file with list of changes.
• RELEASE_TITLE: title for releasing application
• NAME_VARIABLE: name of generated apk. Standard name app-release.apk
