Basic setup

Before you start you should:

• Create a keystore.properties file cp keystore.properties.sample keystore.properties
• Get your API key pair from your Marvel Developer Account and change in keystore.properties file

MARVEL_API_KEY = "your_api_key"
MARVEL_SECRET_KEY = "your_secret"

• To to generate a signed APK you must create a key and a keystore. How to generate a keystore
• then update keystore.properties with your own key and store credentials

STORE_PASSWORD="my store password"
KEY_PASSWORD="my key password"
KEY_ALIAS="my key alias"
STORE_FILE="/path/to/my/store/file"

• now you can build and install the application

Build and Install

$ ./gradlew assembleRelease

Also you can build, align, sign, and install the release APK on an emulator or device all with the installRelease task.

$ ./gradlew installRelease
