React Native Gradle Config

automate gradle config for production or dev

Why

when developing my react-native projects, I want to have both DEV and PRODUCTION versions on my device, and I want to easily distinguish between the two.

this package makes it possible to set seach configuration with a single command. combine with react-native-install-on-device for complete build automation.

Install

$ npm install --save-dev react-native-gradle-config
$ npm install --save-dev replace@ # peer dependency 
$ npm run configGradleSetup # generates .gradleConfig file 

Use

$ npm run configGradle # config gradle for DEV 
$ npm run configGradle -- -p # config gradle for PRODUCTION 

easy peasy! ;)

Config file

.gradleConfig contains 4 keys:

• appDirName: created initially by react-native init, located at PROJECT_ROOT/android/app/src/main/java/com/
• appDisplayName: what your users c, located at PROJECT_ROOT/android/app/src/main/res/values/strings.xml
• appPackageName: the app's identifier for google store, located at the "package" attribute at the manifest file PROJECT_ROOT/android/app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml
• iconName: The name of the icon files to use for the app, located at:
  • PROJECT_ROOT/android/app/src/main/res/mipmap-mdpi/
  • PROJECT_ROOT/android/app/src/main/res/mipmap-hdpi/
  • PROJECT_ROOT/android/app/src/main/res/mipmap-xhdpi/
  • PROJECT_ROOT/android/app/src/main/res/mipmap-xxhdpi/ default is ic_launcher

if u make any changes to any of the above fields in your project, i.e. change the display name, u can either edit .gradleConfig manually, or run the setup script again:

$ npm run configGradleSetup
