android-api-capacitor-how-to.md

These are my notes on generating an APK file using Android Studio, for a Gatsby project using Capacitor.

This is the flow I follow to create the APK:

  • Update the capacitor.config file with the route where is installed the Android studio
  • npm run build (generates the public folder)
  • npm run android:setup (generates the android folder)
  • npm run android:open (opens the android studio with the project)
  • Once in Android studio I compile and export the APK: Build --> Make Project
  • The generated APK file is in android/app/build/outputs/apk/debug/app-debug.apk

The problems I have found with this, are related with the versions, the 'gacdle' and 'sdk' versions need to be compatible
