I finally got some time to finish the first version and do lots of testing with it (apparently the Google Play API has a "daily save quota", which makes testing fun...). The code is now on GitHub: https://github.com/orrc/google-play-android-publisher-plugin <https://github.com/orrc/google-play-android-publisher-plugin> To be honest, I'm not sure what should be done in this situation, where two people have developed similar plugins at the same time. While your plugin probably works fine, I think that my version has a few improvements: - Works on Jenkins slaves (not just the master) - Supports uploading and assigning multiple APKs - Supports staged rollouts - Allows uploading of "What's new" text for multiple languages - Changes the build result to failed if the configuration is bad, or uploading APKs fails for some reason - Every configuration field supports variable expansion, making the plugin more flexible - Integrates with the Google OAuth Plugin, so that credentials can be entered once globally, rather than having to configure credentials for every job Here's a screenshot for anybody interested: https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-vk6N5JlEBlE/U_KH3iettFI/AAAAAAAABKI/ru7pNaKiv-4/w711-h597-no/google-play-android-publisher.png <https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-vk6N5JlEBlE/U_KH3iettFI/AAAAAAAABKI/ru7pNaKiv-4/w711-h597-no/google-play-android-publisher.png> I've been playing with the API for uploading screenshots, so my intention was to add another Recorder which can upload screenshots and listing texts for all the various languages. Does anybody have any input here? :) This is pretty cool and I will try the plugin as soon as I can.
Cool, I've had some people compiling and trying it out and I haven't heard any complaints so far.. ;)
Though I guess it would be nice if somebody would help decide which of these proposed plugins should be actually submitted to the jenkinsci repo :)
As for uploading screenshots/texts, I am not sure. My current process (which involves deploying to various stores - apple-amazon-play-etc), takes as input a directory layout with text files and images, structured per store / language / resolutions etc. If I had to bake this into a plugin, I would probably appreciate something like * take this directory/zip as source * take this this format as input. E.g. %locale%/%type%/Screenshot%idx%.png or PlayStore/Screenshot%idx%_%locale%_/%type%_.png or whatever the user wants to use to create his layout.
Yeah, that's an interesting idea. I have a matrix job which generates screenshots in a similar pattern, with different folders for each language. So this would be nicer than having to manually configure each language in advance in the job config.
Thanks for the feedback!
Note: I haven't looked at the Play API at all yet.
It's a bit weird, especially the Java SDK. The documentation isn't great either. Plus the API account setup process isn't 100% straightforward in Google Play.
