The command "bundletool dump manifest --bundle=${path-to-bundle-aab}" is used to extract and display the Android Manifest file from an Android App Bundle (.aab) file. Here's a breakdown of the command:
-
"bundletool": Refers to the executable or command provided by the Bundletool tool. Bundletool is a command-line utility provided by Google to interact with Android App Bundle files.
-
"dump manifest": This part of the command specifies the action to be performed by the Bundletool. It instructs the tool to extract and display the manifest file.
-
"--bundle=${path-to-bundle-aab}": This is a command-line option that specifies the path to the .aab file from which the manifest needs to be extracted. You need to replace "${path-to-bundle-aab}" with the actual file path to your .aab file.
When you execute this command, Bundletool will read the specified .aab file, extract the Android Manifest file (AndroidManifest.xml), and display its contents in the command-line or terminal window. The manifest contains important information about the app, such as its package name, permissions, activities, services, and more.
