Multi channels and flavors build script for android

###Introduction Since Google announced the new Android build tools Gradle, most Android developers have changed to use AndroidStudio. Though still in alpha version, I found it's really cool to work with especially when you need to develop a project with multi-release-version.

We can use the flavor build for each release version and ship them on the Google Play Store, however it can be tasteless when we need more apks on each flavor with some mirro changes, such as some meta-data for different markets outside Google Play Store. That's why I made this simple project with some usefull shell script to handle this situation.

###Usage This tool has been updated, with gradle task written in groovy instead of bash shell scripts. Currently we have three different version, each one requires little different.

#downoad script and config file
git clone https://github.com/avenwu/buildtool.git

copy ship.sh and channels.properties into your project directory, open terminal:

./ship.sh

####v2 To use the new buildtool your need make few configuration.

#downoad script and config file
buildtool-v2.0(https://github.com/avenwu/buildtool/releases/tag/buildtool-v2.0)

1. Copy the custom.gradle into your project root directory, the same level with build.gradle.
2. Apply the gradle script into build.gradle,add apply from: 'custom.gradle' on top of build.gradle
3. Update the gradle.properties(create it if you dont have one), market_channels stands for all your channels;

####v1 Deprecated
So how to integrate this to your own project? Just copy the buildtool and tools into your own project directory, or you can make changes on the script as you like. The default release command is ./gradlew clean assembleRelease/assembleDebug, so if you have custom defined release/debug name just change it to yours.

#downoad script and config file
buildtool-v1.0(https://github.com/avenwu/buildtool/releases/tag/buildtool-v1.0)

Here are some usefull options:

#release all flavors
./buildtool release

#relase all debug flavors
./buildtool debug

#clean the temp files generated by script
./buildtool -c|clean

#show help infomation
./buildtool -h|--help

关于gradle原生打包

请问下，你的这个打包方式是重新编译么？那与gradle自带的productFlavors有什么区别呢？看到你写的脚本，很好很强大
