Error running Gradle (key store issue)

[dylanirlbeck]

Hi all. So I'm relatively new to Flutter, but I currently have this Action running inside a repo to check that the app can build properly. It was passing for a while, but ever since I added a key store to the app (to prep for an Android release), flutter-action has been failing to build in CI with the following error:

ProcessException: Process "/home/runner/work/..." exited abnormally:
Starting a Gradle Daemon (subsequent builds will be faster)
  Command: /home/runner/work/.../android/gradlew app:properties

My question is, what is the recommended way to deal with the key store file, since you're not supposed to check it in to source control? Thanks in advance!

@dylanirlbeck did you find a solution for this ?

[dylanirlbeck]

I didn't no :/ We now just live with the failing build.

@dylanirlbeck I found a solution. Just add the keys as secrets in github and pass them along as "env" on the build command. Error is gone and app is signed correctly.

Hey, I just did this setup for https://github.com/flutter/gallery, you can recreate the keystore using environment secrets: https://github.com/flutter/gallery/pull/488/files#diff-87db21a973eed4fef5f32b267aa60fcee5cbdf03c67fafdc2a9b553bb0b15f34R121
