Adds a new field to the generated BuildConfig class.

The field is generated as: <type> <name> = <value>;

This means each of these must have valid Java content. If the type is a String, then the value should include quotes.

Adds a new ProGuard configuration file.

proguardFile getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt')

There are two ProGuard rules files that ship with the Android plugin and are used by default:

• proguard-android.txt
• proguard-android-optimize.txt

proguard-android-optimize.txt is identical to proguard-android.txt, except with optimizations enabled. You can use getDefaultProguardFileString to return the full path of the files.

This method has a return value for legacy reasons.

The name of the flavor.

Copies all properties from the given flavor.

It can be used like this:

android.productFlavors {
    paid {
        initWith free
        // customize...
    }
}

Specifies a flavor that the plugin should try to use from a given dimension in a dependency.

Android plugin 3.0.0 and higher try to match each variant of your module with the same one from its dependencies. For example, consider if both your app and its dependencies include a "tier" flavor dimension, with flavors "free" and "paid". When you build a "freeDebug" version of your app, the plugin tries to match it with "freeDebug" versions of the local library modules the app depends on.

However, there may be situations in which a library dependency includes a flavordimension that your app does not. For example, consider if a library dependency includes flavors for a "minApi" dimension, but your app includes flavors for only the "tier" dimension. So, when you want to build the "freeDebug" version of your app, the plugin doesn't know whether to use the "minApi23Debug" or "minApi18Debug" version of the dependency, and you'll see an error message similar to the following:

Error:Failed to resolve: Could not resolve project :mylibrary.
Required by:
project :app

In this type of situation, use missingDimensionStrategy in the defaultConfig block to specify the default flavor the plugin should select from each missing dimension, as shown in the sample below. You can also override your selection in the productFlavors block, so each flavor can specify a different matching strategy for a missing dimension. (Tip: you can also use this property if you simply want to change the matching strategy for a dimension that exists in both the app and its dependencies.)

// In the app's build.gradle file.
android {
    defaultConfig {
        // Specifies a flavor that the plugin should try to use from
        // a given dimension. The following tells the plugin that, when encountering
        // a dependency that includes a "minApi" dimension, it should select the
        // "minApi18" flavor.
        missingDimensionStrategy 'minApi', 'minApi18'
        // You should specify a missingDimensionStrategy property for each
        // dimension that exists in a local dependency but not in your app.
        missingDimensionStrategy 'abi', 'x86'
    }
    flavorDimensions 'tier'
    productFlavors {
        free {
            dimension 'tier'
            // You can override the default selection at the product flavor
            // level by configuring another missingDimensionStrategy property
            // for the "minApi" dimension.
            missingDimensionStrategy 'minApi', 'minApi23'
        }
        paid { }
    }
}

Specifies a sorted list of flavors that the plugin should try to use from a given dimension in a dependency.

Android plugin 3.0.0 and higher try to match each variant of your module with the same one from its dependencies.
