Gradle properties chosen based on build version used

Question

For an Android app, if my build.gradle has 2 schemes, prod and qa, how can I choose a gradle_${chosen}.properties based on the scheme? Ie in my build

prod {
  //use gradle_prod.properties
} 


qa { 
 //use gradle_qa.properties
} 

If I try something like:

qa {
 processResources{

  // ...

  }

}

I get could not find method processResources() ...

You can use a .properties file using something like:

def Properties props = new Properties()
def propFile = file('../fileName.properties')
if (propFile.canRead()){
     props.load(new FileInputStream(propFile))

     xxx = file(props['MY_KEY'])   
}

Instead if you want to use tasks defined in other .gradle files you can use in your file:

apply from: 'myFilename.gradle'
