How can I say for instance I have:

boringworks.core

VVVVV

boringworks.core-sense
boringworks.core-dent
...

we see some numbers of the errors like:

Task :app:compileDebugUnitTestKotlin FAILED
Could not perform incremental compilation: Could not connect to Kotlin compile daemon
Could not connect to kotlin daemon. Using fallback strategy.

Is there a reason for having these different different ways to get a task, and any reason why you might use one or the other?

tasks["foo"]

,

tasks.named("foo").get()

,

tasks.getByName("foo")

How do I retrieve val from

gradle.properties

and apply it with

buildConfigField

Below doesn’t work, I mean BASE_URL is not detected.

buildTypes.forEach {
        it.buildConfigField("String", "BASE_URL", BASE_URL)
        it.buildConfigField("String", "BASE_PLAYER_URL", BASE_PLAYER_URL)
        it.buildConfigField("String", "ACCESS_TOKEN", ACCESS_TOKEN)
    }

gradle.properties

BASE_URL = "url"
BASE_PLAYER_URL = "url"
ACCESS_TOKEN = "token"

Can someone tell me how I can get inline classes added in Kotlin Gradle DSL? Cannot find a working solution. Need to add this inline warning to freeCompilerArguments

I'm trying to register a task in the root module to call tasks in a submodule,

tasks.register("jib") {
    dependsOn(tasks.named(":lp-server-deploy:jib"))
}

but I'm getting this error.

* What went wrong:
A problem occurred configuring root project 'lp-server-root'.
> Could not create task ':jib'.
   > Task with name ':lp-server-deploy:jib' not found in root project 'lp-server-root'.

named

should evaluate lazily, but I feel like the

dependsOn

might be forcing it to resolve early.

Anyone use the Provider API even though it's "incubating". Should I treat it like Kotlin's "experimental"?

Any chance it will get some priority? https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KT-31602

what’s the recommend way to prompt a user for input?

How to convert from

Provider<java.io.File>

to

Provider<RegularFile>

?

anyone know what I can do for this? https://kotlinlang.slack.com/archives/C19FD9681/p1558742267002200

Hey, all! 👋 After migrating to Gradle Kotlin DSL I have this alert in AS. App can still be assembled and installed, but alert...

Hi! Some tests in sourceset

jvmTest

in module A complain that

kotlin-reflect

is missing. Module A depends on module B which has its own

jvmTest

which declares the

kotlin-reflect

dependency in the

api

configuration. hnce, shouldn't this dependency be accessible by Module A, too? Is it a bug in the multiplatform plugin or am i using it wrong (or just have a wrong understanding of the

api

and

implementation

configurations)

Hi! I try to build a Kotlin-JS project using version 1.3.40-eap-67 according to this example https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KT-30528 . Test classes seem to not be compiled and the test isn't running. Where can I find an example of how to configure a test runner for this EAP version? Thank you.

(gradle with Kotlin DSL?

I'm trying to move from groovy to kts, but sometimes for some projects I get unresolved for

test

.

plugins {
    kotlin("jvm") version ("1.3.31")
    ...
}
dependencies {
   val junitVersion = "5.4.2"
   ...
   testRuntime("org.junit.jupiter:junit-jupiter-engine:$junitVersion")
}
tasks {
    test { // <-- this is unresolved

    }
   ...
}

What more is required for

test

to exist?

I had a look at the following issue: https://github.com/gradle/kotlin-dsl/issues/1287 Where it seems that only main build scripts have type safe accessors (https://docs.gradle.org/current/userguide/kotlin_dsl.html#type-safe-accessors) In that case, is there a desired approach to multi module projects, where I want to reuse some scripts for each module? Typically I’d have another gradle file they can include, but that won’t work with kotlin dsl

How to disable this annoying message?

w: ATTENTION!
This build uses unsafe internal compiler arguments:

-XXLanguage:+InlineClasses

Start to happen after adding this:

freeCompilerArgs += [
                    "-XXLanguage:+InlineClasses"
            ]

how can I move the bin in distZip (I would like the scripts to be at the root instead of bin)

Is there a way to read

gradle.properties

in a project root folder from a submodule? It appears that the file must be within the submodule for it to be read

Can someone tell me whats wrong with my sourcesets? Also sourceSets[“main”] returns the same error, but I can see my kotlin files in Android Studio Project in src/main/kotlin

Is there a way Kotlin Gradle DSL notifies about new available packages )(in Android Studio)? I miss this from the normal gradle

How can I turn

compileKotlin {
    kotlinOptions {
        freeCompilerArgs += "-Xuse-experimental=org.mylibrary.ExperimentalMarker"
    }
}

into the kotlin dsl? I'm trying to disable all the coroutine experimental warnings, I found

tasks.withType(org.jetbrains.kotlin.gradle.tasks.KotlinCompile).all {
    kotlinOptions.freeCompilerArgs += ["-Xuse-experimental=kotlin.Experimental"]
}

in kotlin dsl, but it has a bunch of errors in the ide, for example it says "Classifier KotlinCompile does not have a companion object..."

Hi channel! A small question: Basically, I am trying to transfer the next task from Gradle DSL:

task copyDependencies(type: Copy) {
    from(configurations.compile + configurations.testCompile) {
        include '*.dll'
        include '*.dylib'
        include '*.so'
    }
    into 'build/libs'
}

It looks like:

val copyDependencies by tasks.creating(Copy::class) {
    from(configurations.testCompile) {
        include("*.dll")
        include("*.dylib")
        include("*.so")
    }
    into("$buildDir/libs")
}

But i am not sure, which scope should I use instead of

configurations.testCompile

in order to really copy libraries in the

$buildDir/libs

folder. Currently I am not getting anything copied 😕

How do I access variables defined in gradle.properties?

Hello sorry for noob question, I want to apply

gradle-dependency-lock-plugin

at

gradle 5.4.1

But got this error (check the thread) Anybody familiar with this error ?

Why can't I access variables from the plugins definition block?

val foo = "foo"

plugins {
    val bar = foo // 'val foo: String' can't be called in this context by implicit receiver. Use explicit one if necessary.
}

If I add

this@Build_gradle.

, the error disappears from the code, but I still get an error when I try to build...

Hi all, with

Groovy

we had a chance to create

common.gradle

script in order to avoid boilerplate and use it within other mutual gradle files. However, I am unable to do have the same behaviour with DSL. Anyone know how to do that?

several times per day a gradle build fails because it runs out of memory. i suspect that's because of some memory leak in the kotlin plugin(s). is that a known problem? is there anything i can do?
