How to decompile aab AndroidManifest.xml

I can not decompile AndroidManifest.xml in aab file

I unzip aab file, and want to decompile AndroidManifest.xml in unzip files, use this command:

java -jar /my/tools/path/AXMLPrinter2.jar AndroidManifest.xml 
>1.xml

I get this error:

```java.io.IOException: Expected chunk of type 0x80003, read 0x4c7b00a.
at android.content.res.ChunkUtil.readCheckType(ChunkUtil.java:29)
at android.content.res.AXmlResourceParser.doNext(AXmlResourceParser.java:765)
at android.content.res.AXmlResourceParser.next(AXmlResourceParser.java:72)
at test.AXMLPrinter.main(AXMLPrinter.java:43)```

I find file type is Android binary XML in old apk of AndroidManifest.xml , but in aab is data

Decompiling the AndroidManifest.xml can be done with the official google bundletool

bundletool dump manifest --bundle bundle.aab If it prints it on stdout you can do this: bundletool dump manifest --bundle bundle.aab > AndroidManifest.xml
