Sample android project using Gradle, with basic quality tools set up.
This project for provide a clean base to any Gradle Android project.
This project also illustrate my articles about Gradle on my website.
You will find under the directory /config the base configuration to run quality test on the project. The followings tools are used :
- Checkstyle.
- Findbugs.
- PMD.
- Lint.
To run these quality tools and get reports, you need to execute the following gradle command :
gradle checkFindbugs needs the binaries of the project, so be sure to run at least one time the following command, before launching a check :
gradle buildYou can modify the behaviour of each tool through the quality.gradle file. You can for example set :
- The output format (xml or html).
- Abort the task when a failure is found.
You should refer to this gradle documentation to configure those plugins.
By default, all the reports will be generated in the folder app/build/reports.
The project itself show various uses of the flavor system. Flavors are defined in the build.gradle. You need to provide a least a name to the flavor :
You can define several properties to your flavors. One very useful is the packageName which let you
change the package name of your application. This can be used to generate differents flavors of
your application and install both of them on the same device (free and paid versions, dev, validation and release versions...).
You can also put specific sources and resources with flavors. As it is in this project, just create a directory under the src folder, name it with the name of your flavor, and put inside java codes and resources.
Work in progress...
This project is based on these two other projects, which are awesome. Consider take a look at them :
