如何在 build.gradle 的 buildType 中获得风味？

Question

I have my gradle file as below, where I sign my app as Debug in debug build, and Release in release build. It has two flavor ie Develop and Production.

buildTypes {
    debug {
        signingConfig signingConfigs.debug
    }
    release {
        minifyEnabled true
        proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
        signingConfig signingConfigs.release
    }
}

productFlavors {
    develop {
        // Do something
    }
    production {
        // Do something
    }
}

However, I'm thinking of signing as Debug for Develop flavor (release) as well. How could I achieve that (ie access the flavor type variable in the buildType)?

Answer 1

As I understand your question you want something like this:

developDebug: signingConfigs.debug
productionDebug: signingConfigs.debug
developRelease: signingConfigs.debug
productionRelease: signingConfigs.release

You can achieve it this way:

android {
  productFlavors {
    develop {
        // Do something
    }
    production {
        // Do something
    }
  }
  buildTypes {
    debug {
        signingConfig signingConfigs.debug
    }
    // Make an unfinished release build type
    release {
        minifyEnabled true
        proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
    }
    // Finish the release build type flavor specific
    def runTasks = gradle.startParameter.taskNames.toString().toLowerCase()
    if (runTasks.contains("develop")) {
      release {
        signingConfig signingConfigs.debug
      }
    } else if (runTasks.contains("production")) {
      release {
        signingConfig signingConfigs.release
      }
    }
  }
}

Edit: I think this might be a cleaner solution

buildTypes {
    debug {
        signingConfig signingConfigs.debug
    }
    release {
        minifyEnabled true
        proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
        signingConfig signingConfigs.release
    }
    release-develop {
        initWith buildTypes.release
        signingConfig signingConfigs.debug
    }
}

You could also use:

productFlavors.develop.signingConfig signingConfigs.debug

inside of your release build type.

Original Answer:

Something like this should do the trick.

The hierarchy goes buildTypes -> defaultConfig -> productFlavors

buildTypes {
    debug {
        signingConfig signingConfigs.debug
    }
    release {
        minifyEnabled true
        proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
    }
}

defaultConfig {
    signingConfig signingConfigs.release
}

productFlavors {
    develop {
        signingConfig signingConfigs.debug
        // Do something
    }
    production {
        // Do something
    }
}

• developDebug : signed with debug key from debug variant
• developRelease : signed with debug key in develop flavor
• productionDebug : signed with debug key from debug variant
• productionRelease : signed with release key from defaultConfig since its not defined in release variant.
