$ bundletool dump manifest --bundle=${path-to-bundle-aab} --module=${name}

The command you provided is using bundletool to dump the manifest file of an Android App Bundle (AAB). Here's a breakdown of its components:

  • bundletool: It is a command-line utility provided by Google to handle Android App Bundles.
  • dump manifest: This is the operation being executed by bundletool, which instructs it to generate and display the AndroidManifest.xml file of the specified module within the AAB.
  • --bundle=${path-to-bundle-aab}: It specifies the path to the AAB file on the filesystem. You need to replace ${path-to-bundle-aab} with the actual path to your AAB file.
  • --module=${name}: It specifies the name of the module within the AAB for which you want to retrieve the manifest. You should replace ${name} with the desired module's name.

By running this command, bundletool will parse the AAB file, extract the manifest file for the given module, and display its content in the console.

This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
