I am using Azure DevOps and AppCenter(Distribution) for implementing my CICD. Based on the steps mentioned below I have implemented the both CI & CD tasks.
Thant means,
I will create the build using Azure Devops (VSTS) & Push that in to App Centre.
Here my doubt is,
How I can increment my Build and Version numbers while distributing these builds?
The easy way is to install Mobile App Tasks for iOS and Android extension for Azure DevOps. You get a task "Bump Version" (for Andriod and iOS).
The task change app's version name and code at build time.
Inputs:
sourcePath - Path to android manifest
versionCode - code number that must be an integer (put the build number variable, it's incremented automatically)
versionCodeOffset - a specific number to increment the version code
versionName- user visible name
printFile - output the file before and after changing variables
Another option is to install Colin's ALM Corner Build & Release Tools extension and use the Version Assemblies task following this detailed tutorial.
