View source for Graddle build process

== 1. Configuration ==
Gradle builds can be executed in two ways, by installing gradle or by using gradleWrapper (tool which automatically downloads gradle in correct version)<br />
'''Recommended approach:'''<br />
Find JDK Installation Directory. <br />
Open the default installation path for the JDK:<br />
C:\Program Files\Java<br />
There should be a subdirectory like:<br />
C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_10 <br />
Set the JAVA_HOME Variable<br />
Once you have the JDK installation path:<br />
*1.	Right-click the My Computer icon on your desktop and select Properties.
*2.	Click the Advanced tab, then click the Environment Variables button.
*3.	Under System Variables, click New.<br />
*4.	Enter the variable name as JAVA_HOME.
*5.	Enter the variable value as the installation path for the Java Development Kit.
*6.	Click OK.
*7.	Click edit on PATH variable
*8.	Click NEW
*9.	Enter : C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_10
*10.	Click OK
*11.	Click Apply Changes.
*12.    You need to have Android SDK installed, simplest way is to download Android Studio 2.3 and install it (Android Studio to c:\Android\Studio, SDK to c:\Android\SDK).
https://developer.android.com/studio/index.html#win-bundle[https://developer.android.com/studio/index.html#win-bundle]
*13.     After Android Studio install, please set ANDROID_HOME env. variable to dir you have SDK installed (eq. ANDROID_HOME=c:\Android\SDK the same procedure as JAVA_HOME Variable )
You need to run Android studio and agree to software license before using 'gradle'

== Not Recommended approach ==
Install gradle according to this article:<br />
https://docs.gradle.org/current/userguide/userguide_single.html#sec:prerequisites<br />
NOTE: If you choose not recommended approach, then instead of gradlew command use gradle command for every example in this guide. <br /> 
 

== 2. Building and releasing from command prompt ==

*1.	Download project from SVN
*2.	Open command prompt and go to project directory
*3.	Execute one of the following commands to build project:
Commands <br />
All commands starts with gradlew keyword.<br />
Commands to build the project :<br />
*1. assemble<Variant Name>
*2. assemble<Build Type Name>
*3. assemble<Product Flavor Name>
*- allows directly building a single variant. For instance assembleFlavor1Debug.
*- allows building all APKs for a given Build Type. For instance assembleDebug will build both Flavor1Debug and Flavor2Debug variants.
*- allows building all APKs for a given flavor. For instance assembleFlavor1 will build both Flavor1Debug and Flavor1Release variants.
The task assemble will build all possible variants:<br />
{|
|'''Flavors'''||	'''Build Types'''
|-
|RAM||	Release
|-
|PCH||	Debug
|-
|FSH||
|-	
|standard	||
|}

Apks are generated in ./build/outputs/apk folder.<br />
Command to clean all generated files:<br />
1.	clean
For all commands use gradlew --help<br />
Parameters<br />
There are two parameters that can be passed to building script:<br />
•	projVersion – version of the project i.e 7.2.19<br />
•	hotfixnumber – hotfix number  have to be lower than 10<br />
To pass parameter use –P operator i.e  -Photfixnumber=4 <br />
Examples:<br />

'''gradlew assembleRelease -PprojVersion=7.2.19''' : generate signed apks in versionName 7.2.19 and versionCode:702190 for all clients<br />
'''gradlew assembleRelease -PprojVersion=7.2.19 -Photfixnumber=4'''  : generate signed apks in versionName 7.2.19 and versionCode:702194 for all clients<br />
'''gradlew assemblePCHRelease''' : generate signed apk for PCH in default version<br />
'''gradlew assemblePCHDebug''' : generate debugable apk for PCH in default version<br />
'''gradlew assemblePCH''' : generate debugable and signed apk for PCH in default version<br />
'''gradlew assemblePCH''' : generate debugable apks for all clients in default version<br />

Tips<br />
Commands can be shorten as long as they remain unique.<br />
gradlew assemblePCHRelease can be shorten to gradlew aPCHR<br />
