I’m trying to define a gradle plugin in my toml file like this

[plugins]
kotlin-android = {id = "org.jetbrains.kotlin.android", version.ref = "kotlin" }

but I get the following error Error resolving plugin [id: 'org.jetbrains.kotlin.android', version: '1.5.30'] when checking mvnrepository.com I can see it exists implementation("org.jetbrains.kotlin.android:org.jetbrains.kotlin.android.gradle.plugin:1.5.30") but I guess I’m not using the correct string in the id property?

[Javier]

looks like an issue in how is kotlin plugin created

[Javier]

org.jetbrains.kotlin.android

[Vampire]

Works fine here.
I copied your definition, declared your version and applied it

[Javier]

classpath "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-gradle-plugin:1.6.20-M1"

[Vampire]

Then it complains that no Android plugin is applied

[Javier]

not sure why it is looking for "org.jetbrains.kotlin.androidorg.jetbrains.kotlin.android.gradle.plugin1.5.30"

[Vampire]

So the plugin itself was found and is executed

[Vampire]

What are you telling @Javier?
That's the normal marker artifact that then depends on the actual artifact containing the JAR with the code like with almost any other plugin too.

[Vampire]

@jean you need to provide the full error

[jean]

[versions]
kotlin = "1.5.30"
...
[plugins]
kotlin-android = {id = "org.jetbrains.kotlin.android", version.ref = "kotlin" }

then I try to use it like so

plugins {
    alias(libs.plugins.kotlin.android)
    ...
}

and this is the error

You need to

gradlePluginPortal()

To your repositories

[jean]

still the same error 😕

[Javi Chaqués]

Works fine here

In settings.gradle.kts

pluginManagement {
    repositories {
        gradlePluginPortal()
        google()
        mavenCentral()
    }
}

[jean]

the project I work on doesn’t have a pluginManagement block 🤔 let me see If I can add it

[jean]

nop 😞

[jean]

how did you declare the plugin in the toml file @Javi Chaqués?

[Javi Chaqués]

I'm using AGP 7.1.1, Gradle 7.4 and Kotlion 1.6.10

[Javi Chaqués]

My toml file:

[plugins]

kotlin-android = { id = "org.jetbrains.kotlin.android", version.ref = "plugin-kotlin" }

[Javi Chaqués]

My settings.gradle.kts

pluginManagement {
    repositories {
        gradlePluginPortal()
        google()
        mavenCentral()
    }
}

dependencyResolutionManagement {
    repositoriesMode.set(RepositoriesMode.FAIL_ON_PROJECT_REPOS)
    repositories {
        google()
        mavenCentral()
        maven(url = "<https://jitpack.io>")
    }
}

[Javi Chaqués]

i don't have buildscript in build.gradle.kts from root

[Javi Chaqués]

app build.gradle.kts

plugins {
    ...
    alias(libs.plugins.kotlin.android)
}

[Vampire]

You still didn't provide the full error message, just the stack trace. Again, you need to provide the full error message.

[Vampire]

Everything else is just guesswork as you see from the other answers.

[jean]

I shared all I had from the Android Studio error window but I tried to update my kotlin version to 1.6.10 and realized the app was declaring a classpath(…) too that was apparently conflicting with it. After removing it the issue was gone 🤷 Thanks all of you for the help!

[Vampire]

Android Studio probably suffers from the same usability problem still as IntelliJ regarding that: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-226613
