Google Play Integration CI/CD Component

Leveraging the new CI/CD Components capabilities, a component should be created to pair with the existing Google Play integration to make releasing to Google Play easy to set up in CI.

Considerations

  1. The integration works best with Fastlane installed, so the component should be able to check for Fastlane and install it if it's not installed. Fastlane requires Ruby, so it would need to be able to check for and install Ruby as well.
  2. The release process would call either the upload_to_play_store action. This action has a long list of parameters that we could choose to support a subset of to start, with a couple required (i.e. apk, aab, etc.)
  3. A Fastfile would need to be included as part of the component (example here, a release specific lane would be created for each part of this component.

Component Specification

spec:
  inputs:
    aab: # required input for build artifact
    version_name: null # optional version name
    version_code: null # optional version code
---
# content of the component
my-job:
  script: fastlane release_to_playstore # custom fastlane action that calls into `upload_to_play_store`
