Android CI using Bitbucket Pipelines and Docker

Question

I am trying to set up Continuous Integration (CI) in Bitbucket Pipelines for Android.

I have created a sample blank activity using Android Studio 2.1.1.

With Pipelines I'm using the uber/android-build-environment Docker container which creates the environment nicely. Here is my bitbucket-pipelines.yml

image: uber/android-build-environment:latest  pipelines:   default:     - step:         script:           - echo y | android update sdk --filter "extra-android-m2repository" --no-ui -a # Grab the Android Support Repo which isn't included in the container           - ./gradlew assembleDebug 

Some changes are needed since uber/android-build-environment is expecting to be run like so:

docker run -i -v $PWD:/project -t uber/android-build-environment /bin/bash /project/ci/build.sh 

For example, the source is not copied to the volume /project but instead Pipelines copies the contents of the Bitbucket repo to the working directory of the container at:

/opt/atlassian/bitbucketci/agent/build 

And when ./gradlew assembleDebug is run I get the following error:

...  FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.  * What went wrong: Could not create service of type TaskArtifactStateCacheAccess using TaskExecutionServices.createCacheAccess(). > Failed to create parent directory '/opt/atlassian/bitbucketci/agent/build/.gradle' when creating directory '/opt/atlassian/bitbucketci/agent/build/.gradle/2.10/taskArtifacts'  * Try: Run with --stacktrace option to get the stack trace. Run with --info or --debug option to get more log output.  BUILD FAILED  Total time: 56.449 secs 

Running ls -al in the working directory gives:

ls -al total 52 drwxr-xr-x 5 root root 4096 May 31 22:33 . drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 May 31 22:43 .. drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 May 31 22:33 app -rw-r--r-- 1 root root  462 May 31 22:33 bitbucket-pipelines.yml -rw-r--r-- 1 root root  498 May 31 22:33 build.gradle drwxr-xr-x 8 root root 4096 May 31 22:33 .git -rw-r--r-- 1 root root  387 May 31 22:33 .gitignore drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 May 31 22:33 gradle -rw-r--r-- 1 root root  855 May 31 22:33 gradle.properties -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 4971 May 31 22:33 gradlew -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2314 May 31 22:33 gradlew.bat -rw-r--r-- 1 root root   15 May 31 22:33 settings.gradle
