我应该如何为Android库配置Travis-CI？

Question

I am developing an Android library ( RateMyApp , which you can find on GitHub) but I can't see how I should setup Travis CI to build it every time I push new code.

The .travis.yml file I am using is the following:

language: java
script:
    - gradle bundleRelease

but it seems to be ignored because gradle bundleRelease is never invoked. Instead I get the following output that suggests me that gradle assemble is invoked instead.

Using worker: worker-linux-8-1.bb.travis-ci.org:travis-linux-5

travis_fold:start:git.1
$ git clone --depth=50 --branch=master git://github.com/mariosangiorgio/RateMyApp.git
[...]
mariosangiorgio/RateMyApp
Cloning into 'mariosangiorgio/RateMyApp'...
done.
travis_fold:end:git.1    
$ cd mariosangiorgio/RateMyApp
travis_fold:start:git.3
$ git checkout -qf 90faf4539c835136895ea92dd2bcc7da12ad1145
travis_fold:end:git.3
$ java -version
java version "1.7.0_45"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_45-b18)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 24.45-b08, mixed mode)
$ javac -version
javac 1.7.0_45
travis_fold:start:install
$ gradle assemble
[...]
The command "gradle assemble" failed and exited with 1 during install.

Your build has been stopped.

I read the page linked in the documentation but unfortunately it wasn't much helpful to me.

Here is mine yaml file which is building apk. But it should work also for library.

language: java
jdk: oraclejdk7
branches:
  only:
    - master
before_install:
  - chmod +x gradlew
  # Install base Android SDK
  - sudo apt-get update -qq
  - if [ `uname -m` = x86_64 ]; then sudo apt-get install -qq --force-yes libgd2-xpm ia32-libs ia32-libs-multiarch > /dev/null; fi
  - wget http://dl.google.com/android/android-sdk_r22.0.5-linux.tgz
  - tar xzf android-sdk_r22.0.5-linux.tgz
  - export ANDROID_HOME=$PWD/android-sdk-linux
  - export PATH=${PATH}:${ANDROID_HOME}/tools:${ANDROID_HOME}/platform-tools
  # install android build tools
  - wget https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/repository/build-tools_r19.0.1-linux.zip
  - unzip build-tools_r19.0.1-linux.zip -d $ANDROID_HOME
  - mkdir -p $ANDROID_HOME/build-tools/
  - mv $ANDROID_HOME/android-4.4.2 $ANDROID_HOME/build-tools/19.0.1
  # Install required components.
  - echo yes | android update sdk --filter platform-tools --no-ui --force > /dev/null
  - echo yes | android update sdk --filter android-19 --no-ui --force > /dev/null
  - echo yes | android update sdk --filter extra-android-support --no-ui --force > /dev/null
  - echo yes | android update sdk --filter extra-android-m2repository --no-ui --force > /dev/null
install:
  - true
script:
  - TERM=dumb ./gradlew test assembleDebug

But be careful since this script doesn't push built artefact anywhere

Answer 2

I use an SDK installer script in the .travis.yml for Hilt .

language: java
jdk: oraclejdk7
before_install:
    # Install base Android SDK and components
    - sudo apt-get update -qq
    - sudo apt-get install -qq libstdc++6:i386 lib32z1 expect
    - export COMPONENTS=build-tools-19.0.3,android-19,extra-android-support,extra-android-m2repository,extra-google-m2repository
    - export LICENSES=android-sdk-license-bcbbd656
    - curl -3L https://raw.github.com/embarkmobile/android-sdk-installer/version-2/android-sdk-installer | bash /dev/stdin --install=$COMPONENTS --accept=$LICENSES
    - source ~/.android-sdk-installer/env

install:
    # Without TERM=dumb, we get mangled output in the Travis console
    - TERM=dumb ./gradlew clean assemble -PdisablePreDex

script:
    - TERM=dumb ./gradlew check -PdisablePreDex

EDIT: Travis-CI has implemented Android as a first class citizen - http://blog.travis-ci.com/2014-05-07-android-build-support-now-in-beta/

To address why you're seeing gradle assemble instead of gradle bundleRelease :

gradle assemble is invoked by default in the install: stage of Travis (see Travis docs for description of stages, and this note ).

Since you don't have an install: section of your script to override the default, Travis is invoking gradle assemble .

You can prevent this by adding the following lines, which tells Travis not to do anything during the install stage:

install:
    - true

I had a similar issue , with Travis executing gradle assemble when I wanted it to execute gradlew assembleDebug .

So, for me, a complete working script (as of May 1, 2014 with Android as a first class citizen ) is:

language: android
jdk: oraclejdk7

android:
  components:
    - build-tools-19.0.1

install:
    - true

script: TERM=dumb ./gradlew assembleDebug

Thanks to Austyn Mahoney for clarifying this for me here .

EDIT

As of May 8, 2014, Travis CI has removed the default install: stage for the Android beta, as discussed here . Therefore, you should now be able to remove the install: stage from your script, and Travis shouldn't execute gradle assemble .
