Example of declaring Android signing configs using Gradle Kotlin DSL

build.gradle.kts

android {
    signingConfigs {
        getByName("debug") {
            keyAlias = "debug"
            keyPassword = "my debug key password"
            storeFile = file("/home/miles/keystore.jks")
            storePassword = "my keystore password"
        }
        create("release") {
            keyAlias = "release"
            keyPassword = "my release key password"
            storeFile = file("/home/miles/keystore.jks")
            storePassword = "my keystore password"
        }
    }
    compileSdkVersion(28)
    defaultConfig {
        applicationId = "com.mileskrell.someneatapp"
        minSdkVersion(19)
        targetSdkVersion(28)
        versionCode = 1
        versionName = "1.0"
        testInstrumentationRunner = "androidx.test.runner.AndroidJUnitRunner"
    }
    buildTypes {
        getByName("release") {
            isMinifyEnabled = false
            proguardFiles(getDefaultProguardFile("proguard-android-optimize.txt"), "proguard-rules.pro")
            signingConfig = signingConfigs.getByName("release")
            isDebuggable = false
        }
        getByName("debug") {
            signingConfig = signingConfigs.getByName("debug")
            isDebuggable = true
        }
    }
}

It's the top search result in google for 'signing configs android kts' and I was looking for an example when converting my build files to kts.

Yes, same here 😁😁😄😄

Hi, I am using kotlin dsl and in build.gradle.kts file i'm getting the key store values from properties file but i am facing the issue unable to read the keystore file location. Please help out this, how to give customized key store location.
Currently it takes default location.

How are you reading from the properties file?

This is working for me

val KEYSTORE_FILE: String by project   //loads the absolute file path from properties (has to be in properties as KEYSTORE_FILE=/my/path

create("release") {
            storeFile = file(KEYSTORE_FILE)
           
        }

create("release") {

        }

working successfully.

if you don't mind, please explain how to generate a key from the command line, I am tired of with it.

I haven't tried this yet but this might help with CI/CD pipelines:

file("${System.getProperty("user.home")}/exampleKeyStore.jks")
