Bump the version code in config.xml, both the main one and the android specific one -2. Build a release version of the app: `cordova build android --release` -3. Sign that `.apk` (the cordova command tells you where it put it): - 1. Clone the mySociety keys repository - 2. `cd` into the folder containing your new release `.apk` - 3. Sign the .apk with our key: `jarsigner -verbose -keystore <path-to-keys-repo>keys/android/android_keystore -sigalg SHA1withRSA -digestalg SHA1 ZuriWieNeu-release-unsigned.apk fixmyzurich` Double check that you're signing the right .apk here as there - will be debug ones too. - - This will ask first for a password for the keystore (it's in the usual place - if you're a mysociety developer), then a password for the app specific key, - (`fixmyzurich` in the command above is a special shortname for the app that - identifies which key to use.) -4. Verify that the signing was ok: `jarsigner -verify -verbose -certs ZuriWieNeu-release-unsigned.apk` (The signing doesn't change the name of your `.apk`). You should -see `sm` next to every file. -5. Align the `.apk` using `zipalign` (Note, you might have to manually find `zipalign` in `build-tools` inside the sdk-folder): `zipalign -v 4 ZuriWieNeu-release-unsigned.apk ZuriWieNeu.apk` - -Note: most of this comes from: http://developer.android.com/tools/publishing/app-signing.html#signing-manually, you can also do it via Eclipse or Android Studio if you wish. + 1.
