Generate Signin Key

Overview

Generating an Android release keystore and reading its signing report means remembering keytool flags and finding the right gradlew task. generate_signin_key wraps both: it finds your Android project directory automatically, runs ./gradlew signingReport for you, and can generate a new release keystore through an interactive prompt.

Features

• Automatic detection of the Android project directory
• Runs the ./gradlew signingReport task and streams progress in real time
• Interactive new release keystore generation
• Finds keytool automatically in common install locations
• Outputs to the terminal or exports to a file
• Optional clean build before generating keys

Installation

dev_dependencies:
  generate_signin_key: ^1.1.1

dart pub global activate generate_signin_key

Usage

dart run generate_signin_key
dart run generate_signin_key --new        # generate a new release keystore
dart run generate_signin_key --keyexport  # export credentials
dart run generate_signin_key --run        # display the signing report
dart run generate_signin_key --output     # save the report to a file
dart run generate_signin_key --clean      # run gradlew clean first

Security: never commit your keystore file (.jks), key.properties, or exported credential files to GitHub or any public repository.
