Android App Signing - How? #216
-
I've been working all day to try to deploy the Hello Skipper (HelloWorld) App to google Play Store. Reason: If I cannot deploy Hello World - I'll never deploy something more complex. I'm FAILING. I started here: https://skip.tools/docs/deployment/#fastlane_signing_auth This Skip Docs point on to more docs and I've spent the afternoon reading Google Docs that are 10-20 levels deep on Deployment... I think I'm stuck on getting App Signing to work. Most Google docs look like: Generally:
Like I would know exactly HOW to do both of those easy two steps. It seems that Skip has off-loaded some of the deployment to FastLane... OK... which relies upon Gradle .... OK.... I create a key (JSON file downloaded) some kind of Private Key.... Can anyone speak from experience - HOW is this DONE? A really smart coach told me - NOW! is the best time to test out deployment to the test users. If you cannot deploy HelloWorld... do not pass GO, do not collect $200. Fix it! |

I cannot say how to do it the correct way. Nothing worked until I went back to use Android Studio to sign the app bundle.
And everything about that is different... I used Hello World - from the Skip projects to test the deploy process. It BROKE HARD!
I did almost everything by hand - hack - back to the Studio...
But here's PROOF of Life... a Hello World App (via Skip) running on Pixel 6.
