Scaling Android Deployment with Bitbucket Pipelines and Fastlane

This post details how Traveler.today automated the deployment of dozens of Android applications from a single codebase using Bitbucket Pipelines and Fastlane. It describes configuring Bitbucket Pipelines for server deployment based on Git tags, including setting up environment variables, using Maven for builds, and SCP/SSH for deployment to DigitalOcean. It also outlines the use of Fastlane for mobile app deployment, including updating databases, building signed APKs with specific configurations, and deploying to Google Play. The process reduced deployment time per app from hours to minutes.
