Generate release mode APK for React-Native project to publish on PlayStore


Good Day All! I hope you are doing Good.

From last couple of days, Me and my friends were doing comparative study of ionic3 and react-native. During that period, we were struggling to generate release mode APK for React-Native project.

Finally, we came across following solution:
 
1.      Create and then copy a keystore file to android/app

keytool -genkey -v -keystore mykeystore.keystore -alias mykeyalias -keyalg RSA -keysize 2048 -validity 10000
 
2.      Setup your gradle variables in android/gradle.properties

MYAPP_RELEASE_STORE_FILE=mykeystore.keystore
MYAPP_RELEASE_KEY_ALIAS=mykeyalias
MYAPP_RELEASE_STORE_PASSWORD=*****
MYAPP_RELEASE_KEY_PASSWORD=*****
 
3.      Add signing config to android/app/build.gradle
 
android {
    signingConfigs {
        release {
            storeFile file(MYAPP_RELEASE_STORE_FILE)
            storePassword MYAPP_RELEASE_STORE_PASSWORD
            keyAlias MYAPP_RELEASE_KEY_ALIAS
            keyPassword MYAPP_RELEASE_KEY_PASSWORD
        }
    }
    buildTypes {
        release {
            signingConfig signingConfigs.release
        }
    }
}

4.      Generate your release APK:
 
cd android && ./gradlew assembleRelease

5.      Your APK will get generated at: android/app/build/outputs/apk/app-release.apk

Easy Way to Calculate Remainder of Long Division

       Most of the calculators unable to calulate Remainder of long division. Today I am going to show you a easy way to Calculate Remainder of Long Division using square-and-multiply algorithm. Consider example as (25) 17 % 77 As we know,             25 17 = 25 16 x 25 1 So we perform steps as follows:             25 1 % 77 = 25             25 2 % 77 = 9             25 4 % 77 = 9 2 % 77 = 4             25 8 % 77 = 4 2 % 77 = 16             25 16 % 77 = 16 2 % 77 =25 Since, 17 = 16 + 1 we stopped after 25 16 % 77  Final computation,           ...
