The most recent Android App Bundle
The most recent Android App Bundle refreshes including the extra dialects API
A year ago, we propelled Android App Bundles and Google Play's Dynamic Delivery to present measured advancement, decrease application estimate and streamline the discharge procedure. From that point forward, we've seen engineers rapidly embrace this new application display in more than 60,000 generation applications. We've been eager to see engineers experience huge application measure funds and decreases in the time expected to deal with each discharge, and have recorded these advantages on the off chance that reviews with Duolingo and redBus.
we're cheerful to declare some new upgrades dependent on your proposals:
- Another extra dialects introduce API, which underpins in-application language pickers
- A streamlined distributing process for moment empowered application packs
- Another enlistment choice for application marking by Google Play
- The capacity to for all time uninstall dynamic component modules that are incorporated into your application's underlying introduce
Extra languages API:
When you embrace the Android App Bundle as the distributing group for your application, Google Play can advance the establishment by conveying just the language assets that coordinate the gadget's framework regions. On the off chance that a client changes the framework region after the application is introduced, Play naturally downloads the required assets.
A few engineers decouple the application's presentation language from the framework region by including an in-application language switcher. With the most recent arrival of the Play Core library
(variant 1.4.0), we're presenting another extra dialects API that makes it conceivable to work in-application language pickers while holding the full advantages of littler introduces given by utilizing application packs. With the extra dialects API, applications would now be able to demand the Play Store to introduce assets for another dialect setup on interest and promptly begin utilizing it.
Get a list of installed languages:
The app can get a list of languages that are already installed using the SplitInstallManager#getInstalledLanguages() method.
- val splitInstallManager = SplitInstallManagerFactory.create(context)
- val langs: Set
Requesting additional languages:
Requesting an additional language is similar to requesting an on demand module. You can do this by specifying a language in the request through SplitInstallRequest.Builder#addLanguage(java.util.Locale).
val installRequestBuilder = SplitInstallRequest.newBuilder()
installRequestBuilder.addLanguage(Locale.forLanguageTag("pl"))
splitInstallManager.startInstall(installRequestBuilder.build())
Look at the refreshed Play Core Library documentation for more data on the best way to get to the recently introduced language assets in your movement.
We've likewise refreshed our dynamic highlights test on GitHub with the extra dialects API, including how to store the client's language inclination and apply it to your exercises at startup.
If it's not too much trouble note that while the extra dialects API is currently accessible to all designers, on-request modules are in a shut beta for the present. You can explore different avenues regarding on-request modules in your inside, open, and shut test tracks, while we work with our accomplices to ensure this component is prepared for creation applications.
Instant-enabled App Bundle:
In Android Studio 3.3, we introduced a way to build app bundles that contain both the regular, installed version of your app as well as a Google Play Instant experience for modules marked with the dist:instant="true" attribute in their AndroidManifest.xml:
Despite the fact that you could utilize a solitary undertaking to create the introduced and moment renditions of your application, as of not long ago, engineers were as yet required to utilize item seasons so as to manufacture two separate application packages and transfer both to Play.
We're glad to declare that we have now evacuated this limitation. It's presently conceivable to transfer a solitary, brought together application group curio, containing modules empowered for the moment involvement. This usefulness is currently accessible for everybody.
After you assemble a moment empowered application group, transfer it to any track on the Play Console, and you'll have the capacity to choose it while making another moment application discharge. This additionally implies the introduced and moment adaptations of your application never again need diverse variant codes, which will streamline the discharge work process.
Opt in to app signing by Google Play:
You have to empower application marking by Google Play to distribute your application utilizing an Android App Bundle and consequently advantage from Dynamic Delivery improvements. It is additionally an increasingly secure approach to deal with your marking key, which we prescribe to everybody, regardless of whether you need to continue distributing standard APKs for the present.
In view of your criticism, we've patched up the sign-up stream for new applications to make it simpler to introduce the key you need to use for marking your application.
Presently engineers can expressly transfer their current key without expecting to transfer a self-marked antique first. You can likewise begin with a key produced by Google Play, so the key used to locally sign your application pack can turn into your transfer key.
