bundletool

Manipulate Android Application Bundles. Some subcommands such as bundletool validate have their own usage documentation. More information: https://developer.android.com/tools/bundletool.

• Display help for a subcommand:

bundletool help {{subcommand}}

• Generate APKs from an application bundle (prompts for keystore password):

bundletool build-apks --bundle {{path/to/bundle.aab}} --ks {{path/to/key.keystore}} --ks-key-alias {{key_alias}} --output {{path/to/file.apks}}

• Generate APKs from an application bundle giving the keystore password:

bundletool build-apks --bundle {{path/to/bundle.aab}} --ks {{path/to/key.keystore}} --ks-key-alias {{key_alias}} –ks-pass {{pass:the_password}} --output {{path/to/file.apks}}

• Generate APKs including only one single APK for universal usage:

bundletool build-apks --bundle {{path/to/bundle.aab}} --mode {{universal}} --ks {{path/to/key.keystore}} --ks-key-alias {{key_alias}} --output {{path/to/file.apks}}

• Install the right combination of APKs to an emulator or device:

bundletool install-apks --apks {{path/to/file.apks}}

• Estimate the download size of an application:

bundletool get-size total --apks {{path/to/file.apks}}

• Generate a device specification JSON file for an emulator or device:

bundletool get-device-spec --output {{path/to/file.json}}

• Verify a bundle and display detailed information about it:

bundletool validate --bundle {{path/to/bundle.aab}}
