Upload React Native app to Google Console [Expo Ejected]

Question

I had a expo app which I ejected, when following the eject instructions it generated some Android data for uploading to the play store (the following command was ran):

expo fetch:android:keystore

This gave the following:

• xxxxxx.jsk file
• Keystore password : xxxxxxx
• Key alias : xxxxxxx
• Key password : xxxxxxx

In the instructions on the react native website:

https://reactnative.dev/docs/signed-apk-android#generating-an-upload-key

It says the following details are required in gradle.properties :

MYAPP_UPLOAD_STORE_FILE=my-upload-key.keystore
MYAPP_UPLOAD_KEY_ALIAS=my-key-alias
MYAPP_UPLOAD_STORE_PASSWORD=*****
MYAPP_UPLOAD_KEY_PASSWORD=*****

Are the details I have above used here? im slightly confused with the .keystore file as I have a .jks file.

Answer 1

.jks file works fine, and the values provided when you run expo fetch:android:keystore will represent the correct values it asks for.
