This patch removes a few restriction about when the Android build
workflows run. In particular, we want to run workflows…
- If the workflows themselves change because that could mean that the
output changes.
- If the deployment page template changes because that would mean that
the published page needs to be updated.
We could still exclude a few specific files if we wanted to, but they
should rarely change and it's probably not worth the effort of keeping
those lists updated.
This page automatically builds the Android app from the latest commit on
the branch master, generates a test page and publishes it to GitHub
Pages as a nice way for non-developers to get the latest app version for
testing without having to build it themselves.
This page might need the pages source set to GitHub Actions at
Settings → Pages → Build and deployment → Source.
This patch adds a GitHub Actions workflow which will automatically run
through all steps to build the Android version of the app. This is an
easy way of catching major build errors in pull requests or pushed
commits.
Additionally, this uploads the Android APK as build artifact. This
allows anyone to easily download any build for a while. That will make
it much easier for non-developers to participate in testing a new
version or a specific test since the no longer have to wait for a new
release.
The build artifacts are a bit tricky to find, but they are easy to point
out if anyone asks.
