| versionCode | A positive integer used as an internal version number | number |
| versionName | A string used as the version number shown to users | string |
| packageName | A unique application ID, such as com.example.myapp | string |
| compiledSdkVersion | Which Android SDK version was used to compile the app | number |
| compiledSdkVersionCodename | Target Android version | number |
parseAabManifest function
This function accepts either a path to the aab, or a buffer with app bundle content.
Asynchronously parses the app bundle manifest and returns it as an instance of Manifest.
parseAabManifestJSON function
This function accepts either a path to the aab, or a buffer with app bundle content.
Asynchronously parses the app bundle manifest and returns it a plain JSON object. This object contains more fields compared to an instance of Manifest, but it's not typed.
