The submodule weex-playground

Weex Playground can be used to test and preview weex pages on Android and it has been added as a submodule.

Relationship between weex and playground

• The playground submodule will be cloned and updated automatically when developers clone the ‘incubator-weex’ repo and build it.In this case, playground project will implement the source code of weex-sdk.
• When developer directly clone the ‘weex-playground’ repo and run it separately, the playground project will implement a corresponding aar version of weex-sdk.

When to publish SNAPSHOT

When some commits of playground rely on unpublished features of weex-sdk,a SNAPSHOT of weex-sdk will be needed to support it.

How to publish SNAPSHOT

cd android
./gradlew clean install ArtifactoryPublish -PweexVersion=$PUBLISH_VERSION -PbintrayUser=alibabaweex -PbintrayApiKey=$JCENTER_TOKEN

• Explanation for variable:
  $PUBLISH_VERSION The version of snapshot, like 0.26.1.3-SNAPSHOT
  $JCENTER_TOKEN The private key for JCenter (https://bintray.com/alibabaweex/maven/weex_sdk/), which is the distribution channel for Android
