Android studio 3.0 build variants does not match flavors

Question

I'm trying to setup different build variants for Android Studio 3.0 and gradle plugin 3.0, but Android Studio doesn't create build variant for each my flavor. Gradle build is successfull but I don't know how to make productionapiRealese and germanyapiRelease build variants. How can I make it?

My flavors:

flavorDimensions "pr", "ger"
productFlavors {
    productionapi {

        provider "pk"
        dimension "pr"

    }
    germanyapi {
        provider "sd"
        dimension "ger"
    }
}

And my build variants:

Obviously because your flavors has different dimensions – Intensive

No, it is not.. He doesn't get any error. If I understand his properly he wants to get productionapiDebug, germanapiDebug, and so on.... – Intensive

Selvin, so I need the same dimension for different variants? – Cornish

Answer 1

First of all read this article in detail.

As far as I understand you are mixing flavors using the information you can find in this section "Combine multiple product flavors with flavor dimensions".

Just remove this:

flavorDimensions "pr", "ger"

and this from each flavor:

dimension "ger"
dimension "pr"

Just focus on the first part of the section "Configure Product Flavors":

android {
    ...
    defaultConfig {...}
    buildTypes {...}
    flavorDimensions "default"
    productFlavors {
        productionapi {
            applicationIdSuffix ".prod"
            versionNameSuffix "-prod"
        }
        germanyapi {
            applicationIdSuffix ".german"
            versionNameSuffix "-german"
        }
    }
}

Doing that you will get a build variant for each flavor

Yes, you are right. But, also you need to add flavorDimensions "default" to build it successfully. If don't - it won't compile – Cornish

@Cornish : I have the same issue, how do you fix the issue finally? Can you post the gradle script that fixed your issue? – Eileneeilis

@Mouss the gradle script is in my answer but as he said, you need to add flavorDimensions "default" also! – Flanch

@LeandroOcampo : would it be possible please to add it directly to your post? When we are on stackoverflow, we often look only at post and not messages under the post... Thanx a lot :) – Eileneeilis
