gpc-migrate-fastlane

Complete guide for migrating from Fastlane supply to GPC.

When to use

• Migrating from Fastlane supply to GPC (partial or full)
• Running GPC alongside Fastlane during a transition period
• Comparing Fastlane and GPC commands
• Converting Fastlane CI workflows to GPC
• Understanding metadata directory compatibility

Inputs required

• Existing Fastlane setup — Fastfile, Appfile, metadata directory
• Service account key — same key file works for both tools
• App package name — from Appfile or Fastfile configuration

Procedure

1. Assess current Fastlane usage

Identify which Fastlane supply features you use:

# Check your Fastfile for supply lanes
cat fastlane/Fastfile | grep -A 10 'supply'

# Check metadata directory
ls fastlane/metadata/android/

# Check Appfile for config
cat fastlane/Appfile

2. Install GPC (keep Fastlane installed)

npm install -g @gpc-cli/cli

Both tools can coexist — they share the same service account keys and metadata directory structure.

3. Authenticate with the same service account

# Use the same key file from Fastlane
gpc auth login --service-account path/to/play-store-key.json

# Or set via environment variable (same as SUPPLY_JSON_KEY)
export GPC_SERVICE_ACCOUNT=$(cat path/to/play-store-key.json)

# Configure default app (from your Appfile)
gpc config set app com.example.app

# Verify
gpc doctor

4. Map your Fastlane commands to GPC

Read: references/command-mapping.md for the complete command mapping table.

Key mappings:

# Upload AAB
# Fastlane: fastlane supply --aab app.aab --track beta
# GPC:
gpc releases upload app.aab --track beta

# Upload with rollout
# Fastlane: fastlane supply --aab app.aab --track production --rollout 0.1
# GPC:      (note: percentage, not decimal)
gpc releases upload app.aab --track production --rollout 10

# Download metadata
# Fastlane: fastlane supply --download_metadata --metadata_path metadata/
# GPC:
gpc listings pull --dir metadata/

# Push metadata
# Fastlane: fastlane supply --skip_upload_aab --metadata_path metadata/
# GPC:
gpc listings push --dir metadata/

# Upload screenshots
# Fastlane: fastlane supply --skip_upload_aab --skip_upload_metadata
# GPC:
gpc listings images upload --lang en-US --type phoneScreenshots *.png

5. Test with dry-run

Before switching any CI pipeline, verify GPC produces the same results:

# Preview metadata push (no changes applied)
gpc listings push --dir fastlane/metadata/android/ --dry-run

# Preview upload (validates AAB without uploading)
gpc validate app.aab

# Compare listing output
gpc listings view --lang en-US --json

6. Migrate CI configuration

Read: references/ci-migration.md for platform-specific CI migration examples.

Replace Fastlane supply calls in your CI with GPC equivalents:

# Before (GitHub Actions with Fastlane)
- name: Deploy to beta
  run: bundle exec fastlane supply --aab app.aab --track beta

# After (GitHub Actions with GPC)
- name: Deploy to beta
  env:
    GPC_SERVICE_ACCOUNT: ${{ secrets.PLAY_SA_KEY }}
    GPC_APP: com.example.app
  run: npx @gpc-cli/cli releases upload app.aab --track beta

7. Clean up Fastlane (optional)

Once fully migrated and confident:

# Remove Fastlane files
rm -rf fastlane/Fastfile fastlane/Appfile fastlane/Pluginfile
rm Gemfile Gemfile.lock

# Keep metadata directory — GPC uses the same structure
# fastlane/metadata/android/ → works with both tools

Note: The metadata directory (fastlane/metadata/android/) is fully compatible. You can rename it if you want (e.g., metadata/) — just update the --dir flag.

Verification

• gpc doctor passes all checks
• gpc listings push --dir fastlane/metadata/android/ --dry-run shows no errors
• gpc releases upload app.aab --track internal --dry-run validates the bundle
• CI pipeline runs successfully with GPC commands
• Metadata and screenshots match what was uploaded via Fastlane
