I am trying to packages all the PNG resources of my Android application as WEBP images. All the resources will be in PNG format in project source code, but during build process i want to convert these resources to WEBP format using cwebp encoder and want android gradle plug-in to use these webp images to add into the apk instead of .png files.
Now what i thought was this : Write a custom task in build.gradle which will convert all the images in directory $buildDir/intermediates/res/< flavor>/< buildType>/drawable-xxxhdpi-v13/ have this depend on mergeResources(mergeflavorbuildTypeResources) task so that it is executed after the above directory has been created. But I am not able to add this dependency as it gives error for no such task. I also tried with : myTask.dependsOn assemble This does execute successfully but it packaged the png images only. Questions : A) From which path and using which task does android package the resources in APK in Gradle ? B) What else can i do to accomplish this ? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "adt-dev" group.
