How to create android project with gradle from command line (without any IDE)?

Before it was with android util like below

Answer 1

Here is the solution PHP Android CLI

Just run:

phpandroid create HelloWorld com.example.helloworld

and your project is scaffolded with latest android-studio parameters, like, compile & target SDK is 29, buildToolsVersion is 29.0.1 & minSdk is 16.

If you want to change, like, want to set minSdk to 14:

phpandroid create PROJECT PACKAGE --minSdk=14

PHP Android CLI can also create Variants and modules (application/library):

phpandroid create PROJECT PACKAGE --modules=common:library,admin --variants=free:type,paid:type,php:backend,firebase:backend

this will generate 2 applications, app, admin & a library common. App has 2 dimensions: type & backend 4 variants: free & paid of type dimension; php & firebase variant of backend dimension.
