[Android] Creating an Android bundle

[cosmith]

Hi, I'm not sure if this is me not finding the relevant info in the docs or if the functionality is not there yet.
How do I create an Android bundle?

react-native bundle
Building package...
transforming [========================================] 100% 309/309
Build complete
Successfully saved bundle to ios/main.jsbundle

No mention of android, and if I delete index.ios.js the bundling breaks.

Also there's no mention that I could find of creating a release APK, any info on this? Are we supposed to run ./gradlew assembleRelease in the android folder or something similar?

Sorry for all the questions ;)

See #2703 for more discussion on this topic.

Basically, you need to manually download the Android bundle (e.g. http://localhost:8081/index.android.bundle) and put it in android/app/src/main/assets. ./gradlew assembleRelease should work after that.

Thanks, I hadn't realized it was the same thing. I'll close this then.
