Since we're moving to scoped storage, uninstalling the app will very likely delete user data. In Debug/Dev, we want this to impact the dev's workflow as little as possible So we change the applicationId. This relays the expectation that a 'stable' anki should be using 'com.ichi2.anki' and an 'unstable/dev' AnkiDroid should be 'com.ichi2.anki.debug'. A developer should have two copies of the app, each with their own storage location. API: As previously, define the API permissions/authority using the applicationId: permission: 'com.ichi2.anki.debug.permission' authority: 'com.ichi2.anki.debug.flashcards' androidTest needs to access 'com.ichi2.anki.debug.flashcards' and have 'com.ichi2.anki.debug.permission'. To resolve this, if the API is built in debug mode, the constants are modified: (api/build.gradle) * AUTHORITY = "com.ichi2.anki.debug.flashcards" * READ_WRITE_PERMISSION = "com.ichi2.anki.debug.permission.READ_WRITE_DATABASE" Implementation: High level: * Define variables in build.gradle * Handle modifying them via parallel-package-name.sh Low level: * Use 'applicationIdSuffix' for this * Modifies '<provider android:authorities>' in AndroidManifest.xml * Required for installation on device * Use 'applicationId' * Modifies '<permission android:name' in AndroidManifest.xml * Not required - cleanup on parallel-package-name.sh * Modifies preferences_sync.xml * via resValue in build.gradle * Fixes crash Source for both: https://developer.android.com/studio/build/build-variants#build-types applicationIdSuffix: https://developer.android.com/reference/tools/gradle-api/7.3/com/android/build/api/dsl/ApplicationVariantDimension#applicationIdSuffix() @string/applicationId * syntax ref: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/27954215/changing-resvalue-in-variant manifestPlaceholders/${applicationId} https://developer.android.com/studio/build/manage-manifests Learning: > By default, the build tools also provide your app's application ID in the ${applicationId} placeholder. The value always matches the final application ID for the current build, including changes by build variants. This is useful when you want to use a unique namespace for identifiers such as an intent action, even between your build variants. https://developer.android.com/studio/build/manage-manifests |
