Generating Signed Bundle

To generate a signed bundle in Android, you need to update the Android Gradle Plugin to version 3.2.0 or higher. The Android Gradle Plugin is responsible for building and packaging your Android application.

Follow these steps to generate a signed bundle:

  1. Open your Android project in Android Studio.
  2. Go to the root directory of your project and locate the build.gradle file for your app module (usually named app/build.gradle).
  3. Inside the build.gradle file, find the android section.
  4. Update the build.gradle file to include the following:

android {
    ...
    defaultConfig {
        ...
        minSdkVersion 15
        targetSdkVersion 30
        versionCode 1
        versionName "1.0"
        ...
    }
    ...
    signingConfigs {
        release {
            storeFile file("path/to/your/keystore.jks")
            storePassword "your_keystore_password"
            keyAlias "your_key_alias"
            keyPassword "your_key_password"
        }
    }
    buildTypes {
        release {
            ...
            signingConfig signingConfigs.release
        }
    }
    ...
}
  

Make sure to replace path/to/your/keystore.jks, your_keystore_password, your_key_alias, and your_key_password with the appropriate values for your keystore and key.

  1. Sync your Gradle project by clicking on the Sync Now button that appears in the toolbar in Android Studio or by selecting File > Sync Project with Gradle Files.
  2. In the menu, click on Build > Build Bundle(s) / APK(s) > Build Bundle(s).
  3. After the build process completes, you can find the generated signed bundle in the app/build/outputs/bundle/release directory of your project.

That’s it! You have successfully generated a signed bundle for your Android application.
