How to Set Versionname in APK Filename Using Gradle

How to set versionName in APK filename using gradle?

This solved my problem: using applicationVariants.all instead of applicationVariants.each

buildTypes {
      release {
        signingConfig signingConfigs.release
        applicationVariants.all { variant ->
            def file = variant.outputFile
            variant.outputFile = new File(file.parent, file.name.replace(".apk", "-" + defaultConfig.versionName + ".apk")) 
        }
    }       
}

Update:

So it seems this does not work with 0.14+ versions of android studio gradle plugin.

This does the trick (Reference from this question
) :

android {
    applicationVariants.all { variant ->
        variant.outputs.each { output ->
            output.outputFile = new File(
                    output.outputFile.parent,
                    output.outputFile.name.replace(".apk", "-${variant.versionName}.apk"))
        }
    }
}

How to change apk name by using gradle like this format?

Update: Please check Anrimian's answer below which is much simpler and shorter.

Try this:

gradle.properties

applicationName = MyApp

build.gradle

android {
  ...
  defaultConfig {
     versionCode 111
     ...
  }
  buildTypes {
     release {
         ...
         applicationVariants.all { variant ->
             renameAPK(variant, defaultConfig, 'R')
         }
     }
     debug {
         ...
         applicationVariants.all { variant ->
             renameAPK(variant, defaultConfig, 'T')
         }
     }
  }
}
def renameAPK(variant, defaultConfig, buildType) {
 variant.outputs.each { output ->
     def formattedDate = new Date().format('yyMMdd')

     def file = output.packageApplication.outputFile
     def fileName = applicationName + "_V" + defaultConfig.versionCode + "_" + formattedDate + "_" + buildType + ".apk"
     output.packageApplication.outputFile = new File(file.parent, fileName)
 }
}

How to change the generated filename for App Bundles with Gradle?

As a more generic way to Martin Zeitlers answer the following will listen for added tasks, then insert rename tasks for any bundle* task that gets added.

Just add it to the bottom of your build.gradle file.

Note: It will add more tasks than necessary, but those tasks will be skipped since they don't match any folder. e.g. > Task :app:renameBundleDevelopmentDebugResourcesAab NO-SOURCE

tasks.whenTaskAdded { task ->
    if (task.name.startsWith("bundle")) {
        def renameTaskName = "rename${task.name.capitalize()}Aab"
        def flavor = task.name.substring("bundle".length()).uncapitalize()
        tasks.create(renameTaskName, Copy) {
            def path = "${buildDir}/outputs/bundle/${flavor}/"
            from(path)
            include "app.aab"
            destinationDir file("${buildDir}/outputs/renamedBundle/")
            rename "app.aab", "${flavor}.aab"
        }

        task.finalizedBy(renameTaskName)
    }
}

Apk rename with the Gradle plugin v4.10.1

Try this:

android.applicationVariants.all { variant ->
    variant.outputs.all { output ->
        def builtType = variant.buildType.name
        def versionName = variant.versionName
        def versionCode = variant.versionCode
        def flavor = variant.flavorName
        outputFileName = "app-${flavor}-${builtType}-${versionName}-${versionCode}.apk"
    }
}

This outputs the following apk name : app-release-myFlavor-0.0.1-1.apk.

How do I append the build.gradle versionName to the release build APK file

If you want to change your apk file name at release build you can do like as follows.

For Example: ( app/build.gradle )

android {
applicationVariants.all { variant ->
    if (variant.buildType.name.equals("release")) {
        variant.outputs.each { output ->
            if (output.outputFile != null && output.outputFile.name.endsWith('.apk')) {
                def apk_name = "my_application"
                def versionName = defaultConfig.versionName
                //you can also add version code and date if you like
                //def applicationId = defaultConfig.applicationId
                //def versionCode = defaultConfig.versionCode
                //def date = new java.text.SimpleDateFormat("yyyyMMdd_HHmmss").format(new Date())
                def newName = "${apk_name}_${versionName}.apk"
                output.outputFile = new File(output.outputFile.parent, newName)
            }
        }
     }
  }
} 

Change apk name with Gradle

As CommonsWare wrote in his comment, you should call appendVersionNameVersionCode only for staging variants. You can easily do that, just slightly modify your appendVersionNameVersionCode method, for example:

def appendVersionNameVersionCode(variant, defaultConfig) {
    //check if staging variant
    if(variant.name == android.buildTypes.staging.name){
        if(variant.zipAlign) {
            def file = variant.outputFile
            def fileName = file.name.replace(".apk", "-" + defaultConfig.versionName + "-" + defaultConfig.versionCode + ".apk")
            variant.outputFile = new File(file.parent, fileName)
        }

    def file = variant.packageApplication.outputFile
    def fileName = file.name.replace(".apk", "-" + defaultConfig.versionName + "-" + defaultConfig.versionCode + ".apk")
    variant.packageApplication.outputFile = new File(file.parent, fileName)
    }
}
