Passing -P parameters to gradle from android studio

For example let's try to pass server base endpoint while building project. First we need to define a method which gets url and sets it

def serverUrl = "https://mydefaulturl.com"
task(runProgram){
   if(project.hasProperty("url")){
       serverUrl = url;
   }
}

In your buildTypes create your base url with this value:

debug{
   buildConfigField("java.lang.String","BASE_URL","$serverUrl")
}

Now we can pass debug build an url and use it.

You can build your project from terminal with the command below:

./gradlew installDebug task runProgram '-Purl="https://yournewurl.com"'

Run > Edit Configurations..

Replace "abcdef" in Script parameters by your params.

In order to provide parameter to run option of Android Studio you should setup them under AndroidStudios Compile Preferences

AndroidStudio > Preferences...

Under Compiler: ComandLineOptions enter image description here
