Creating custom builds for EAS Build helps customize the build process for your project.
## YAML syntax for custom builds
Custom build config files are stored inside the **.eas/build** directory path. They use YAML syntax and must have a `.yml` or `.yaml` file extension. If you are new to YAML or want to learn more about the syntax, see [Learn YAML in Y minutes](https://learnxinyminutes.com/docs/yaml/).
## `build`
Defined to describe a custom build configuration. All config options to create a custom build are specified under it.
### `name`
The name of your custom build that is used to identify it in the build logs. EAS Build uses this property to display the name of your build in the dashboard.
For example, the build name is `Run tests`:
```yaml
build:
# @info #
name: Run tests
# @end #
steps:
- eas/checkout
- run:
name: Install dependencies
command: npm install
```
### `steps`
Steps are used to describe a list of actions, either in the form of commands or function calls. These actions are executed when a custom build runs on EAS Build. You can define single or multiple steps in a build config. However, it is **required** to define at least one step per build.
Each step is configured with the following properties:
#### `steps[].run`
The `run` key is used to trigger a set of instructions. For example, a `run` key is used to install dependencies using the `npm install` command:
```yaml
build:
name: Install npm dependencies
steps:
- eas/checkout
# @info #
- run:
name: Install dependencies
command: npm install
# @end #
```
You can also use `steps[].run` to execute single or multiline shell commands:
```yaml
build:
name: Run inline shell commands
steps:
# @info #
- run: echo "Hello world"
- run: |
echo "Multiline"
echo "bash commands"
# @end #
```
#### Use a single step
For example, a build config with the following `steps` will print "Hello world":
```yaml
build:
name: Greeting
steps:
# @info #
- run: echo "Hello world"
# @end #
```
> **Note:** `-` before `run` counts as indentation.
#### Use multiple steps
When multiple `steps` are defined, they are executed sequentially. For example, a build config with the following `steps` will first check out the project, install npm dependencies, and then run a command to run tests:
```yaml
build:
name: Run tests
steps:
# @info #
- eas/checkout
- run:
name: Install dependencies
command: npm install
- run:
name: Run tests
command: |
echo "Running tests..."
npm test
# @end #
```
#### Sharing environment variables with other steps
Environment variables exported (using `export`) in one step's `command` are not automatically exposed to other steps. To share an environment variable with other steps, use the `set-env` executable.
`set-env` expects to be called with two arguments: environment variable's name and value. For example, `set-env NPM_TOKEN "abcdef"` will expose `$NPM_TOKEN` variable with value `abcdef` to other steps.
> **Note:** Variables shared with `set-env` are not automatically exported locally. You need to call `export` yourself.
```yaml
build:
name: Shared environment variable example
steps:
- run:
name: Set environment variables
command: |
set -x
# Set variable
ENV_TEST_LOCAL="present-only-in-current-shell-context"
# Set and export variable
export ENV_TEST_LOCAL_EXPORT="present-in-current-step"
# Set shared variable
set-env ENV_TEST_SET_ENV "present-in-following-steps"
# Will print "ENV_TEST_LOCAL: present-only-in-current-shell-context"
# because current shell has access to this local variable.
echo "ENV_TEST_LOCAL: $ENV_TEST_LOCAL"
# Will print "ENV_TEST_LOCAL_EXPORT: present-in-current-step"
# because export also sets the local variable value.
echo "ENV_TEST_LOCAL_EXPORT: $ENV_TEST_LOCAL_EXPORT"
# Will "ENV_TEST_SET_ENV: "
# because set-env does not set or export variables.
echo "ENV_TEST_SET_ENV: $ENV_TEST_SET_ENV"
# Will only print LOCALLY_EXPORTED_ENV,
# because it is the only export-ed variable.
env | grep ENV_TEST_
- run:
name: Check variables values in next step
command: |
set -x
# Will print "ENV_TEST_LOCAL: ", because ENV_TEST_LOCAL
# is only a local variable in previous step.
echo "ENV_TEST_LOCAL: $ENV_TEST_LOCAL"
# Will print "ENV_TEST_LOCAL_EXPORT: "
# because export does not share a variable to other steps.
echo "ENV_TEST_LOCAL_EXPORT: $ENV_TEST_LOCAL_EXPORT"
# Will print "ENV_TEST_SET_ENV: present-in-following-steps"
# because set-env "exported" variable to other steps.
echo "ENV_TEST_SET_ENV: $ENV_TEST_SET_ENV"
# Will only print ENV_TEST_SET_ENV,
# because set-env "exported" it to other steps.
env | grep ENV_TEST_
```
#### `steps[].run.name`
The name used in build logs to display the name of the step.
#### `steps[].run.command`
The `command` defines a custom shell command to run when a step is executed. It is **required** to define a command for each step. It can be a multiline shell command:
```yaml
build:
name: Run tests
steps:
- eas/checkout
- run:
name: Run tests
# @info #
command: |
echo "Running tests..."
npm test
# @end #
```
#### `steps[].run.working_directory`
The `working_directory` is used to define an existing directory from the project's root directory. After an existing path is defined in a step, using it changes the current directory for that step. For example, a step is created to list all the assets inside the **assets** directory, which is a directory in your Expo project. The `working_directory` is set to `assets`:
```yaml
build:
name: Demo
steps:
- eas/checkout
- run:
name: List assets
# @info #
working_directory: assets
# @end #
command: ls -la
```
#### `steps[].run.shell`
Used to define the default executable shell for a step. For example, the step's shell is set to `/bin/sh`:
```yaml
build:
name: Demo
steps:
- run:
# @info #
shell: /bin/sh
# @end #
command: |
echo "Steps can use another shell"
ps -p $$
```
#### `steps[].run.inputs`
Input values are provided to a step. For example, you can use `input` to provide a value:
```yaml
build:
name: Demo
steps:
- run:
name: Say Hi
# @info #
inputs:
name: Expo
# @end #
command: echo "Hi, ${ inputs.name }!"
```
#### `steps[].run.outputs`
An output value is expected during a step. For example, a step has an output value of `Hello world`:
```yaml
build:
name: Demo
steps:
- run:
name: Produce output
# @info #
outputs: [value]
# @end #
command: |
echo "Producing output for another step"
set-output value "Output from another step..."
```
#### `steps[].run.outputs.required`
An output value can use a boolean to indicate if the output value is required or not. For example, a function does not have a required output value:
```yaml
build:
name: Demo
steps:
- run:
name: Produce another output
id: id456
# @info #
outputs:
- required_param
- name: optional_param
required: false
# @end #
command: |
echo "Producing more output"
set-output required_param "abc 123 456"
```
#### `steps[].run.id`
Defining an `id` for a step allows:
- Calling the same function that produces one or more outputs multiple times
- Using the output from one step to another
#### Call the same function one or more times
For example, the following function generates a random number:
```yaml
functions:
random:
name: Generate random number
outputs: [value]
command: set-output value `random_number`
```
In a build config, let's use the `random` function to generate two random numbers and print them:
```yaml
build:
name: Functions Demo
steps:
- random:
id: random_1
- random:
id: random_2
- run:
name: Print random numbers
inputs:
random_1: ${ steps.random_1.value }
random_2: ${ steps.random_2.value }
command: |
echo "${ inputs.random_1 }"
echo "${ inputs.random_2 }"
```
#### Use output from one step to another
For example, the following build config demonstrates how to use output from one step to another:
```yaml
build:
name: Outputs demo
steps:
- run:
name: Produce output
id: id123 # <---- !!!
outputs: [foo]
command: |
echo "Producing output for another step"
set-output foo bar
- run:
name: Use output from another step
inputs:
foo: ${ steps.id123.foo }
command: |
echo "foo = \"${ inputs.foo }\""
```
## `functions`
Defined to describe a reusable function that can be used in a build config. All config options to create a function are specified with the following properties:
### `functions.[function_name]`
The `[function_name]` is the name of a function that you define to identify it in the `build.steps`. For example, you can define a function with the name `greetings`:
{/* prettier-ignore */}
```yaml
functions:
# @info #
greetings:
# @end #
name: Say Hi!
```
### `functions.[function_name].name`
The name that is used in build logs to display the name of the function. For example, a function with the display name `Say Hi!`:
```yaml
functions:
greetings:
# @info #
name: Say Hi!
# @end #
```
### `functions.[function_name].inputs`
Input values are provided to a function.
#### `inputs[].name`
The name of the input value. It is used as an identifier to access the input value such as in bash command interpolation.
{/* prettier-ignore */}
```yaml
functions:
greetings:
name: Say Hi!
inputs:
# @info #
- name: name
# @end #
default_value: Hello world
command: echo "${ inputs.name }!"
```
#### `inputs[].required`
Boolean to indicate if the input value is required or not. For example, a function does not have a required value:
```yaml
functions:
greetings:
name: Say Hi!
inputs:
- name: name
# @info #
required: false
# @end #
```
#### `inputs[].type`
The type of the input value. It can be either `string`, `num` or `json`.
Input values set in the function call as well as `default_value` and `allowed_values` for the function are validated against the type.
The default input `type` is `string`.
For example, a function has an input value of type `string`:
```yaml
functions:
greetings:
name: Say Hi!
inputs:
- name: name
# @info #
type: string
# @end #
- name: age
# @info #
type: num
# @end #
- name: other_data
# @info #
type: json
# @end #
```
#### `inputs[].default_value`
You can use `default_value` to provide one default input. For example, a function has a default value of `Hello world`:
```yaml
functions:
greetings:
name: Say Hi!
inputs:
- name: name
# @info #
default_value: Hello world
# @end #
```
#### `inputs[].allowed_values`
You can use `allowed_values` to provide multiple values in an array. For example, a function has multiple allowed values:
```yaml
functions:
greetings:
name: Say Hi!
inputs:
- name: name
default_value: Hello world
# @info #
allowed_values: [Hi, Hello, Hey]
# @end #
type: string
```
#### Multiple input values
Multiple input values can be provided to a function.
```yaml
functions:
greetings:
name: Say Hi!
# @info #
inputs:
- name: name
default_value: Expo
- name: greeting
default_value: Hi
allowed_values: [Hi, Hello]
# @end #
command: echo "${ inputs.greeting }, ${ inputs.name }!"
```
### `functions.[function_name].outputs`
An output value is expected from a function. For example, a function has an output value of `Hello world`:
```yaml
functions:
greetings:
name: Say Hi!
# @info #
outputs: [value]
# @end #
command: set-output value "Hello world"
```
#### `outputs[].name`
The name of the output value. It is used as an identifier to access the output value in another step:
```yaml
functions:
greetings:
name: Say Hi!
outputs:
# @info #
- name: name
# @end #
```
#### `outputs[].required`
Boolean to indicate if the output value is required or not. For example, a function does not have a required output value:
```yaml
functions:
greetings:
name: Say Hi!
outputs:
- name: value
# @info #
required: false
# @end #
```
### `functions.[function_name].command`
Used to define the command to run when a function is executed, if you wish the function to be a simple shell script. Each function is **required** to define either a `command` or a `path` to JS/TS module implementing the function. For example, the command `echo "Hello world"` is used to print a message:
```yaml
functions:
greetings:
name: Say Hi!
# @info #
command: echo "Hi!"
# @end #
```
### `functions.[function_name].path`
Used to define the path to a JavaScript/TypeScript module implementing the function. Each function is **required** to define either a `command` or a `path` property. For example, the path `./greetings` is used to execute a `greetings` function declared in the `greetings` module:
```yaml
functions:
greetings:
name: Say Hi!
# @info #
path: ./greetings
# @end #
```
> [Learn more about building and using custom TypeScript/JavaScript functions](/custom-builds/functions/).
### `functions.[function_name].shell`
Used to define the default executable shell for a step where a function is executed. For example, the step's shell is set to `/bin/sh`:
```yaml
functions:
greetings:
name: Say Hi!
# @info #
shell: /bin/sh
# @end #
command: echo "Hi!"
```
### `functions.[function_name].supported_platforms`
Used to define the supported platforms for a function. Defaults to all platforms. Allowed platforms: `darwin`, `linux`.
For example, the function's supported platform is `darwin` (macOS):
```yaml
functions:
greetings:
name: Say Hi!
# @info #
supported_platforms: [darwin]
# @end #
command: echo "Hi!"
```
## `import`
A config file path list used to import functions from other config files. Imported files cannot have the `build` section.
For example, the following build config imports two files and calls two imported functions - `say_hi` and `say_bye`.
```yaml build-and-test.yml
import:
- common-functions.yml
- another-file.yml
build:
steps:
- say_hi
- say_bye
```
```yaml common-functions.yml
functions:
say_hi:
name: Say Hi!
command: echo "Hi!"
```
```yaml another-file.yml
functions:
say_bye:
name: Say bye :(
command: echo "Bye!"
```
## Functions
### Built-in EAS functions
EAS provides a set of built-in reusable functions that you can use in a build config without defining the function definition.
> **info** **Tip:** Any function that is built-in and provided by EAS must start with the `eas/` prefix.
#### `eas/build`
The all-in-one function that encapsulates the entire EAS Build build process. It resolves the best build configuration based on your build profile's settings from [**eas.json**](/eas/json/).
It's ideal for people who want to have the build done without worrying about altering and configuring the build process manually. It can be a great starting point for your custom build configuration if you are interested in using other custom steps before or after the build process and you don't want to change the build process itself.
```yaml example.yml
build:
name: Run a build using a single command
steps:
- eas/build
```
To have more control over the build process and customize it as per your requirements, see the following custom functions and steps that run in the background by `eas/build`. They are executed as a build process based on your build profile's configuration.
##### Android
When a build configuration is using [`withoutCredentials`](/eas/json/#withoutcredentials):
- [`eas/checkout`](#eascheckout)
- [`eas/use_npm_token`](#easuse_npm_token)
- [`eas/install_node_modules`](#easinstall_node_modules)
- [`eas/resolve_build_config`](#easresolve_build_config)
- [`eas/prebuild`](#easprebuild)
- [`eas/configure_eas_update`](#easconfigure_eas_update)
- [`eas/run_gradle`](#easrun_gradle)
- [`eas/find_and_upload_build_artifacts`](#easfind_and_upload_build_artifacts)
When a build configuration uses credentials (for both `internal` and `store` [distribution](/eas/json/#distribution) builds):
- [`eas/checkout`](#eascheckout)
- [`eas/use_npm_token`](#easuse_npm_token)
- [`eas/install_node_modules`](#easinstall_node_modules)
- [`eas/resolve_build_config`](#easresolve_build_config)
- [`eas/prebuild`](#easprebuild)
- [`eas/configure_eas_update`](#easconfigure_eas_update)
- [`eas/inject_android_credentials`](#easinject_android_credentials)
- [`eas/configure_android_version`](#easconfigure_android_version)
- [`eas/run_gradle`](#easrun_gradle)
- [`eas/find_and_upload_build_artifacts`](#easfind_and_upload_build_artifacts)
##### iOS
When a build configuration is using [`withoutCredentials`](/eas/json/#withoutcredentials) or [`simulator`](/eas/json/#simulator):
- [`eas/checkout`](#eascheckout)
- [`eas/use_npm_token`](#easuse_npm_token)
- [`eas/install_node_modules`](#easinstall_node_modules)
- [`eas/resolve_build_config`](#easresolve_build_config)
- [`eas/prebuild`](#easprebuild)
- Install pods using the `pod install` command
- [`eas/configure_eas_update`](#easconfigure_eas_update)
- [`eas/generate_gymfile_from_template`](#easgenerate_gymfile_from_template)
- [`eas/run_fastlane`](#easrun_fastlane)
- [`eas/find_and_upload_build_artifacts`](#easfind_and_upload_build_artifacts)
When a build configuration uses credentials (for both `internal` and `store` [distribution](/eas/json/#distribution) builds):
- [`eas/checkout`](#eascheckout)
- [`eas/use_npm_token`](#easuse_npm_token)
- [`eas/install_node_modules`](#easinstall_node_modules)
- [`eas/resolve_build_config`](#easresolve_build_config)
- [`eas/resolve_apple_team_id_from_credentials`](#easresolve_apple_team_id_from_credentials)
- [`eas/prebuild`](#easprebuild)
- Install pods using the `pod install` command
- [`eas/configure_eas_update`](#easconfigure_eas_update)
- [`eas/configure_ios_credentials`](#easconfigure_ios_credentials)
- [`eas/configure_ios_version`](#easconfigure_ios_version)
- [`eas/generate_gymfile_from_template`](#easgenerate_gymfile_from_template)
- [`eas/run_fastlane`](#easrun_fastlane)
- [`eas/find_and_upload_build_artifacts`](#easfind_and_upload_build_artifacts)
You can replace the `eas/build` command call by using these steps in your YAML configuration file:
##### Known limitations
- It doesn't accept any inputs, and the resolved build process will be configured based on your build profile from [**eas.json**](/eas/json/).
- The build process produced by `eas/build` is not configurable and you can't customize it. If you need to customize the build process, use the subset of functions and steps that are executed behind the scenes by this function and configure them manually in the YAML configuration file, as shown in the examples above.
#### `eas/maestro_test`
All-in-one function that installs Maestro, prepares a testing environment (Android Emulator or iOS Simulator), and tests the app.
> **warning** Your project must be configured to use the old Build Infrastructure to start Android Emulator. Go to [Project settings](https://expo.dev/accounts/[account]/projects/[project]/settings) to configure. See [this changelog post](https://expo.dev/changelog/2024/08-29-c3d-default) for more information.
| Input | Type | Description |
| ----------- | -------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `flow_path` | `string` | Path (or multiple paths, each in a separate line) to [Maestro flows](https://docs.maestro.dev/getting-started/writing-your-first-flow) to run. |
| `app_path` | `string` | Path (or regex pattern) to the emulator/simulator app that should be tested. If not provided, it defaults to **android/app/build/outputs/\*\*/\*.apk** for Android and to **ios/build/Build/Products/\*simulator/\*.app** for iOS. |
```yaml build-and-test.yml
build:
name: Build and test
steps:
- eas/build
# @info #
- eas/maestro_test:
inputs:
flow_path: |
maestro/sign_in.yml
maestro/create_post.yml
maestro/sign_out.yml
# @end #
```
```yaml test-ios-simulator-app.yml
build:
name: Build and test iOS simulator app
steps:
- eas/checkout
# @info #
- eas/maestro_test:
app_path: ./fixtures/my_app.app
inputs:
flow_path: |
maestro/sign_in.yml
maestro/create_post.yml
maestro/sign_out.yml
# @end #
```
```yaml test-android-emulator-app.yml
build:
name: Build and test Android emulator app
steps:
- eas/checkout
# @info #
- eas/maestro_test:
app_path: ./fixtures/my_app.apk
inputs:
flow_path: |
maestro/sign_in.yml
maestro/create_post.yml
maestro/sign_out.yml
# @end #
```
Behind the scenes, it uses:
- [`eas/install_maestro`](#easinstall_maestro) to install Maestro
- [`eas/start_android_emulator`](#easstart_android_emulator) to start an Android Emulator if needed
- [`eas/start_ios_simulator`](#easstart_ios_simulator) to start an iOS Simulator if needed
- Custom `run` to install **.apk** to the running Android Emulator and **.app** to iOS Simulator
- Series of `run` to execute `maestro test` for each of the provided flows
- [`eas/upload_artifact`](#easupload_artifact) to upload Maestro test artifacts as build artifact
> **Warning** We have observed that Maestro tests often time out if run on images with Xcode 15.0 or 15.2. Use the `latest` image to avoid any issues.
If you need to customize the Maestro version, run a specific Android Emulator or iOS Simulator, or upload multiple build artifacts you will need to write this series of steps yourself.

name: Upload test artifact
if: ${ always() }
inputs:
type: build-artifact
path: ${ eas.env.HOME }/.maestro/tests
# @end #
```
#### `eas/checkout`
Checks out your project source files.
For example, a build config with the following `steps` will check out the project and list the files in the **assets** directory:
```yaml upload.yml
build:
name: List files
steps:
- eas/checkout
- run:
name: List assets
run: ls assets
```
#### `eas/use_npm_token`
Configures node package managers (npm, pnpm, or Yarn) for use with private packages, published either to npm or a private registry.
Set `NPM_TOKEN` in your project's secrets, and this function will configure the build environment by creating **.npmrc** with the token.
```yaml example.yml
build:
name: Install private npm modules
steps:
- eas/checkout
# @info #
- eas/use_npm_token
# @end #
- run:
name: Install dependencies
run: npm install # <---- Can now install private packages
```
#### `eas/install_node_modules`
Installs node modules using the package manager (npm, pnpm, or Yarn) detected based on your project. Works with monorepos.
```yaml example.yml
build:
name: Install node modules
steps:
- eas/checkout
# @info #
- eas/install_node_modules
# @end #
```
#### `eas/resolve_build_config`
Resolves and prints the build configuration. If the build has been triggered by the GitHub integration, it will update the current `job` and `metadata` context values. It should be called after installing the dependencies because the config may be influenced by config plugins.
This function is automatically executed by the [`eas/build`](#easbuild) function group.
#### `eas/get_credentials_for_build_triggered_by_github_integration`
> **warning** **Deprecated:** Replace this step with [`eas/resolve_build_config`](#easresolve_build_config).
#### `eas/resolve_apple_team_id_from_credentials`
> **Warning** This function is only available for iOS builds.
Resolves the Apple team ID value based on build credentials provided in the `inputs.credentials`. The resolved Apple team ID is stored in the `outputs.apple_team_id` output value.
```yaml example.yml
build:
name: Run prebuild script
steps:
- eas/checkout
- eas/install_node_modules
# @info #
- eas/resolve_apple_team_id_from_credentials:
id: resolve_apple_team_id_from_credentials
# @end #
- eas/prebuild:
inputs:
apple_team_id: ${ steps.resolve_apple_team_id_from_credentials.apple_team_id }
```
| Property | Type | Description |
| -------------------- | -------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `name` | `string` | The name of the step in the reusable function that shows in the build logs. Defaults to `Resolve Apple team ID from credentials`. |
| `inputs.credentials` | `json` | Optional input defining the app credentials for your iOS build. Defaults to `${ eas.job.secrets.buildCredentials }`. Needs to comply to `${ eas.job.secrets.buildCredentials }` schema for iOS. |

| `message` | `string` | The text of the message you want to send. For example, `'This is the content of the message'`.<br /> <br />**Note:** Either `message` or `payload` needs to be provided, but not both. |
| `payload` | `string` | The contents of the message you want to send defined using [Slack Block Kit](https://api.slack.com/block-kit) layout.<br /> <br />**Note:** Either `message` or `payload` needs to be provided, but not both. |
| `slack_hook_url` | `string` | The URL of the previously configured Slack webhook URL, which will post your message to the specified channel. You can provide the plain URL like `slack_hook_url: 'https://hooks.slack.com/services/[rest_of_hook_url]'`, use EAS secrets like `slack_hook_url: ${ eas.env.ANOTHER_SLACK_HOOK_URL }`, or set the `SLACK_HOOK_URL` secret, which will serve as a default webhook URL (in this last case, there is no need to provide `slack_hook_url` input). |
### Using built-in EAS functions to build an app
Using the built-in EAS functions you can recreate the default EAS Build process for different build types.
For example, to trigger a build that creates internal distribution build for Android and a simulator build for iOS you can use the following configuration:
```json eas.json|collapseHeight=420
{
/* @hide ... */ /* @end */
"build": {
/* @hide ... */ /* @end */
"developmentBuild": {
"distribution": "internal",
"android": {
"config": "development-build-android.yml"
},
"ios": {
"simulator": true,
"config": "development-build-ios.yml"
}
}
/* @hide ... */ /* @end */
}
/* @hide ... */ /* @end */
}
```
```yaml .eas/build/development-build-android.yml
build:
name: Simple internal distribution Android build
steps:
- eas/checkout
- eas/install_node_modules
- eas/prebuild
- eas/inject_android_credentials
- eas/run_gradle
- eas/find_and_upload_build_artifacts
```
```yaml .eas/build/development-build-ios.yml|collapseHeight=440
build:
name: Simple simulator iOS build
steps:
- eas/checkout
- eas/install_node_modules
- eas/prebuild
- run:
name: Install pods
working_directory: ./ios
command: pod install
- eas/generate_gymfile_from_template
- eas/run_fastlane
- eas/find_and_upload_build_artifacts
```
To create a Google Play Store build for Android and an Apple App Store build for iOS you can use the following configuration:
```json eas.json
{
/* @hide ... */ /* @end */
"build": {
/* @hide ... */ /* @end */
"productionBuild": {
"android": {
"config": "production-build-android.yml"
},
"ios": {
"config": "production-build-ios.yml"
}
}
/* @hide ... */ /* @end */
}
/* @hide ... */ /* @end */
}
```
```yaml .eas/build/production-build-android.yml
build:
name: Customized Android Play Store build example
steps:
- eas/checkout
- eas/install_node_modules
- eas/prebuild
- eas/inject_android_credentials
- eas/run_gradle
- eas/find_and_upload_build_artifacts
```
```yaml .eas/build/production-build-ios.yml
build:
name: Customized iOS App Store build example
steps:
- eas/checkout
- eas/install_node_modules
- eas/resolve_apple_team_id_from_credentials:
id: resolve_apple_team_id_from_credentials
- eas/prebuild:
inputs:
apple_team_id: ${ steps.resolve_apple_team_id_from_credentials.apple_team_id }
- run:
name: Install pods
working_directory: ./ios
command: pod install
- eas/configure_ios_credentials
- eas/generate_gymfile_from_template:
inputs:
credentials: ${ eas.job.secrets.buildCredentials }
- eas/run_fastlane
- eas/find_and_upload_build_artifacts
```

### Use a reusable function in a `build`
For example, a custom build config with the following reusable function contains a single command to print a message that is echoed.
```yaml
functions:
greetings:
- name: name
default_value: Hello world
inputs: [value]
command: echo "${ inputs.name }, { inputs.value }"
```
The above function can be used in a `build` as follows:
```yaml
build:
name: Functions Demo
steps:
# @info #
- greetings:
inputs:
value: Expo
# @end #
```
> **info** **Tip:** `build.steps` can execute multiple reusable `functions` sequentially.
## Override values in a `build`
You can override values for the following properties:
- `working_directory`
- `name`
- `shell`
For example, a reusable function called `list_files`:
```yaml
functions:
# @info #
list_files:
name: List files
command: ls -la
# @end #
```
When `list_files` is called in a build config, it lists all files in the root directory of a project:
```yaml
build:
name: List files
# @info #
steps:
- eas/checkout
- list_files
# @end #
```
You can use the `working_directory` property to override the behavior in the function call to list the files in a different directory by specifying the path to that directory:
```yaml
build:
name: List files
steps:
# @info #
- eas/checkout
- list_files:
working_directory: /a/b/c
# @end #
```
