Gradle Play Publisher 2.7.5

• Fixed a compatibility issue with Gradle 6.3.
• Fixed a bug causing local release notes to be picked from the promoteTrack instead of the fromTrack.

Gradle Play Publisher 2.7.4

No artifacts were published, please ignore this release.

Gradle Play Publisher 2.7.3

This release fixes a few key bugs:

• Bootstrapping images started failing across various GPP versions due to an API change.
• Using a product flavor named play would fail.
• GPP would crash on a non-existent mapping file.

In addition, partial compatibility with AGP 4.1.x is now available.

Gradle Play Publisher 2.7.2

This release makes incompatibility errors with the Android Gradle Plugin clearer.

Note: the minimum AGP version was bumped from 3.6.0-rc03 to 3.6.0 now that 3.6 stable has shipped.

Gradle Play Publisher 2.7.1

This release fixes a dependency resolution issue caused by googleapis/google-api-java-client#1487.

Gradle Play Publisher 2.7.0

This release is focused on fixing long-standing bugs and minor feature requests.

Note: GPP v2.7 requires at least Gradle 6.2 and the Android Gradle Plugin 3.6.0.

Improvements

• Support for top-level graphics is now available. This means that you can put your app's icon (for example) in graphics/icon.png instead of graphics/icon/1.png.
• If no local release notes are found, existing release notes from the Play Console will be carried over when publishing your APK or App Bundle.
• You can now upload and/or install debuggable internal sharing artifacts.
• A warning is now logged if your playConfigs contain an unrecognized variant, product flavor, or build type.

Bug fixes

• CLI params now always override your build script configuration instead of failing if you had playConfigs.
• CLI params on lifecycle tasks (such as promoteArtifact instead of promoteReleaseArtifact) now propage down to their respective implementation tasks correctly.
• The --artifact-dir CLI param is now correctly respected in eagerly configured Gradle projects.

Deprecations

• The --track CLI param on promotion tasks has been removed as it led to confusing bugs and unpredictable behavior. Use --promote-track instead.
