you can obviously also parse the properties file without using internal api of refreshVersions its just a little bit longer code

is there a refreshVersion constant for the core desugaring library depencency?

Hi, and thanks for this great tool! I'm trying to add some grouping rules for a couple of androidx libraries, but it seems to me that they are ignored. Here's my rules file:

androidx.compose.*:*
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

androidx.paging:paging-compose
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^.       ^^^^^^^

com.google.dagger:hilt-compiler
    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^.^^^^

Note that the last entry with the

hilt-compiler

is working fine, which indicates to me that I've set this up correctly. When I run gradle sync or refreshVersions, I get this in my `versions.properties`:

version.androidx.compose.foundation=1.0.0-alpha10

version.androidx.compose.material=1.0.0-alpha10

version.androidx.compose.runtime=1.0.0-alpha10

version.androidx.compose.ui=1.0.0-alpha10

version.androidx.paging=2.1.2

But I was expecting this:

version.androidx.compose=1.0.0-alpha10

version.androidx.paging=2.1.2

version.androidx.paging.compose=1.0.0-alpha05

Is there something wrong with my androidx rules, or do they conflict with the built-in ones maybe? Or have I misunderstood this feature completely? 😅

Hi everyone, thanks for the time you have taken to create this tool 🙌. I'm trying to add Koin to my project using refreshVersions, but I'm unable to find the ID. I already found a few PR closed about adding koin 🤔 It's possible to add custom dependencies that don't exist on refresh versions? I didn't understand that part from the docs 😅

Hey hey 👋 Just noticed that several pages on the website are 404-ing. Specifically al those under contributing (such as https://jmfayard.github.io/refreshVersions/contributing/code_of_conduct/).

also, regarding writing the dependencyNotation, I went a step further by completing skipping the artifact name, ie

implementation("org.koin:koin-core")

, have you considered something like this? Edit: just saw this is actually resolving anyway, but I have no idea how..

elect

02/07/2021, 11:01 AM

also 2, what about importing all at once a set of dependencies? Instead of

implementation(Square.okHttp3.loggingInterceptor)
    implementation(Square.okHttp3.mockWebServer)
    implementation(Square.okHttp3.okHttp)
    implementation(Square.retrofit2.converter.moshi)
    implementation(Square.retrofit2.retrofit)

just

implementation(Square.coreSet)

or something similar

elect

02/07/2021, 11:07 AM

also 3, do you suggest me to use the

migrateToRefreshVersionsDependenciesConstants

task to port the pom linked above?

Hello, I just wanted to thank you for working in this project and tell you that I have been using the buildSrcVersions for around a year and I have been really happy with that. Now I will try to move to the refresh versions. I wanted to ask if you know of any example or guide on how to move from a groovy gradle Android project to the refresh versions. I have been working with the buildSrcVersions and I thought it would be similar, but I was having hard time finding how write in kotlin some things, like apply Apollo graph ql plugins, Google maps, and firebase crashalitics plugin and also I was using a maven library where I had to specify user and password of my credentials so I wasn't sure how to do it with kts.

Hi - I might be being a little blind and not looking properly, but is there a way to filter the refreshVersions from not picking up alpha/RCs/nightlies?

Nikky

03/16/2021, 1:21 AM

so i am guessing .. something in the gradle plugin repo died

Nikky

03/25/2021, 9:38 AM

Centralized dependency versions

in gradle 7.x + looks interesting.. i am guessing refreshVersions will integrate into that? https://docs.gradle.org/7.0-rc-1/release-notes.html

Hello folks, just to let you know that I converted 1 personal project to refreshVersions recently. Compared with my previous trial last year, not sure what changed but it was really smooth this time 👍 Thx for the hard work 👏

, and just let me edit files without assistance?

I guess there's no way to manage kotlin (or other plugin) versions with refreshVersions (or is there)?

I will have a look later today

BTW - the sample-multi-module example also fails (when hardcoding the version number to 0.9.7) with:

* Where:
Settings file '/Users/david/dev/misc/refreshVersions/sample-multi-modules/settings.gradle.kts' line: 16

* What went wrong:
An exception occurred applying plugin request [id: 'de.fayard.refreshVersions', version: '0.9.7']

Is there support for Gradle 7's new catalogs? Could

be used there too as a version and be managed by refreshVersions?

Nikky

05/13/2021, 3:18 PM

i just upgraded to 0.10.0 too.. i wish the

FeatureFlag

were accessible from within the

FeatureFlagExtension

somehow.. so that there is no imports needed getting idea to parse the configuration initially.. to even get the IDE to help was a bit more challenging because of that missing import but i guess i am nitpicking

📢📢📢 Hello folks! I'm very happy for the 0.10.0 version, released yesterday morning. https://twitter.com/Louis_CAD/status/1393152173555470344?s=20 See the thread for the thanks to pair-programmers, contributors (like @Nikky), and to my sponsors. 🙏

👋 I’m finishing migrating a “large” project to refreshVersions and I’m wondering what’s the best way to add support for libraries I’m using in buildSrc. I’ve seen this website page about just declaring refreshVersion in

buildSrc/settings.gradle.kts

but it just didn’t work, whatever the expected behavior. I ended-up with this file in declaration in `buildSrc/settings.gradle.kts`:

val versions = loadProperties(projectDir.resolve("../versions.properties").toString())
dependencies {
    val refVerImpl: (String, String) -> Unit = { artifact, version ->
        implementation("$artifact:${versions["version.$version"]}")
    }
    // ...
    refVerImpl("com.github.triplet.gradle:play-publisher", "com.github.triplet.gradle..play-publisher")
}

and in the root `build.gradle.kts`:

@Suppress("GradlePluginVersion") buildscript {
    repositories {
        gradlePluginPortal()
        google()
        mavenCentral()
    }
    dependencies { // Allowing to populate versions.properties with buildSrc dependencies
        classpath("com.android.tools.build:gradle:_")
        classpath("org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-gradle-plugin:_")
        classpath("com.github.triplet.gradle:play-publisher:_")
    }
}

Is there a better alternative approach I could use for buildSrc dependencies?

I am getting

Cannot get version candidates with an empty fetchers list.

In an android project, when using

for the gradle android plugin version, AS makes me insert

@Suppress("GradlePluginVersion")

and still shows it as red... how can I get rid of the warning?

Nikky

06/07/2021, 12:15 PM

@louiscad i made a fix for that.. by detecting if it was initialized already and if it is a included build it does not override the

versionsFile

and such before it would overwrite and the parent would write to the included one

Nikky

06/08/2021, 7:47 AM

the only thing left is that idea sync is now broken in the sample-groovy from what i can tell it calls

bootstrap

for the buildSrc., succeeds and then calls it again and that somehow happens in a context where the config holder has no configs i tried just not removing them , intentionally leaking i guess.. but that did not fix it either.. so i think it executes it in a seperate classpath

Nikky

06/08/2021, 12:03 PM

i guess there is no way to change

versionFor

to add

Project

as a receiver in groovy code without changes to usages ? or some way to extract which buildscript the call came from with reflection ?

louiscad

06/08/2021, 12:28 PM

Wait, there's a way to have receiver syntax in Groovy DSL?

Regardless, we can do a lot of magic as a settings plugin, including automatically migrating.

Nikky

06/08/2021, 1:12 PM

well this is code that would be in your

build.gradle

file

❓ 1

but honestly.. maybe just marking the old function as

@Deprecated

wit ha proper

ReplaceWith

might be enough

not sure how good the IDE integration is for groovy code.. i only know it never worked for me

Nikky

06/08/2021, 1:14 PM

aparently there is such a language feature in groovy.. but not sure if we have access to it..

louiscad

06/08/2021, 1:14 PM

I think it only works within classes.

Nikky

06/08/2021, 1:15 PM

https://dzone.com/articles/groovy-goodness-adding-extra

An extension module is a JAR file with classes that provide extra methods to existing other classes like in the JDK or third-party libraries. Groovy uses this mechanism to add for example extra methods to the
File
class.

so.. if we set this up right.. maybe we can provide

versionFor

extensions on

Project

seems like it needs a service entry in META-INF for discovery

louiscad

06/08/2021, 1:17 PM

Far from high priority for refreshVersions, but if you want and think you can make it work without drawbacks, feel free to send a PR.

Nikky

06/08/2021, 1:18 PM

i am only considering this because it would not break existing

0.10.0

groovy buildscripts

but .. all of that might not work on gradle buildscripts anyways..
