Getting started

Install the dependency into your pubspec.yaml with the following:

dev_dependencies:
  simple_deploy: latest_version # e.g. ^0.23.0

Create a deploy.yaml file at the root of your project and configure it

Here is minimal example version of deploy.yaml

android:
  credentialsFile: "c:/credentials/project-credentials.json"   
  packageName: "com.example.coolapp"                           
  whatsNew: "Simple bug fixes"                                 

ios:
  teamKeyId: "ABCD1A4A12"                                      
  developerId: "76a6aa66-e80a-67e9-e987-6a1c711a4b2

And here's a version with all options set:

common:
  versionStrategy: "none" 

android:
  credentialsFile: "c:/credentials/project-credentials.json"   
  packageName: "com.example.coolapp"                           
  trackName: "internal"                                        
  whatsNew: "Simple bug fixes"                                 
  flavor: "flavor"            # specify a flavor if required, or omit if not using flavors
  generatedFileName: "fancyproject.aab"       # supply a custom file name for the aab, or omit if using the default                 

ios:
  teamKeyId: "ABCD1A4A12"                                      
  developerId: "76a6aa66-e80a-67e9-e987-6a1c711a4b2"            
  flavor: "flavor"            # specify a flavor if required, or omit if not using flavors
  generatedFileName: "fancyproject.ipa"         # supply a custom file name for the ipa, or omit if using the default

Usage

Just run dart run simple_deploy and select the deployment platform

You can also supply the platform with

  • dart run simple_deploy android
  • dart run simple_deploy ios

If you are using flavors you can add them here, they will override what is set in the pubspec.yaml, for example

  • dart run simple_deploy android --flavor flavorName

Additional information

You'll need to get some developer details from App Store connect for the deploy.yaml file You will also need to set up a google cloud project to create the .json file required for android. See steps below of these:
