android-gradle Shrink Code and Resources Shrink the code with ProGuard
Example
To enable code shrinking with ProGuard, add minifyEnabled true to the appropriate build type in your build.gradle file.
android {
buildTypes {
release {
minifyEnabled true
proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile(‘proguard-android.txt'),
'proguard-rules.pro'
}
}
}
where:
minifyEnabled true: enable code shrinking- The
getDefaultProguardFile(‘proguard-android.txt')method gets the default ProGuard settings from the Android SDK - The
proguard-rules.profile is where you can add custom ProGuard rules
