title: How to sign AAR Artifacts in Android?
body: <p>I'm currently developing a .AAR android library and I would like to sign the released artifacts with my own key, so that I can determine if a fake aar with the same name and functionality has been released by mine or not.</p>
  
  <p><strong>Notice 1 :</strong></p>
  
  <p>I want to be able to check the authenticity of my library programmatically, even if a fakely-cooked one, is forging just part of the functionality of my aar file.</p>
  
  <p><strong>Notice 2 :</strong> </p>
  
  <p>I am <strong>not</strong> going to publish this aar into maven, sonatype or any other public repository. So I'm going to sign it for a typical release flow like signing an apk file.</p>
