gplay release

gplay release

Create a complete release: create edit, upload bundle/apk, configure track, commit.

gplay release --package <name> --track <track> --bundle <path> [--release-notes <json>] [--rollout <fraction>] [--wait]

The release command is a high-level workflow that combines:

1. Create a new edit
2. Upload app bundle or APK
3. Update store listings (if –listings-dir is provided)
4. Upload screenshots (if –screenshots-dir is provided)
5. Configure track with release notes and rollout
6. Validate and commit the edit

This replaces the manual workflow of: gplay edits create gplay bundles upload gplay listings update gplay images upload gplay tracks update gplay edits commit

Example: gplay release –package com.example.app –track production –bundle app.aab –release-notes @notes.json –rollout 0.1 gplay release –package com.example.app –track internal –bundle app.aab –listings-dir ./metadata –screenshots-dir ./screenshots
