Releasing an APK

This should probably live in a script in our framework.

cordova run --release

The above command will generate an APK file, unsigned, in the ./platforms/android/ant-build/ directory.

Initial Instructions for Packaging to Android

You can follow the Android instructions for packaging/signing which involves basically:

$ keytool -genkey -v -keystore my-release-key.keystore
-alias alias_name -keyalg RSA -keysize 2048 -validity 10000

For the key, which you should keep in a safe directory. And then you can sign the resease Jar created previously:

$ jarsigner -verbose -sigalg SHA1withRSA -digestalg SHA1 -keystore my-release-key.keystore
my_application.apk alias_name

Then you can copy to Android with adb push filename-signed.apk /sdcard/path-in-device/file.adk — or push to a market, etc.
