gradle - set different versionName for different build type

I'd like to use different versionCode and versionName for debug and release builds but I'm not sure how to achieve this. I don't want to just add suffix, I want to generate versionCode completely different between two build types. Specifically, it'd best if I can set versionCode to getDebugVersionCode() and getReleaseVersionCode() for debug and release builds, respectively. How can I do this? Thanks.

I think the solution you are looking for is This.

Also, here is the implementation from my gradle file:

    android {
        applicationVariants.all { variant ->
            if (variant.buildType.isDebuggable()) {
                //set properties for debug
                variant.outputs.each { output ->
                    output.versionNameOverride = "DEBUG-VERSION";
                    output.versionCodeOverride = 1
                }
            }
        }
    }

You can try to use a solution from here.

According to it, it's possible to change versionName and versionCode like so:

android {
  applicationVariants.all { variant ->     
    def flavor = variant.mergedFlavor      
    if (variant.buildType.isDebuggable()) {           
       //set properties for debug
       flavor.versionName = 'version-name-for-debug`;
       flavor.versionCode = 6;
    } else {
       //set properties for release
       flavor.versionName = 'version-name-for-relese`;
       flavor.versionCode = 8;
    }
  }
}
