does anyone know why this example of convention plugins in the documentation doesn’t work or what’s needed to make it work? https://docs.gradle.org/current/userguide/declaring_dependencies_between_subprojects.html#sec:project_jar_dependencies

[Peter]

example: https://github.com/nefilim/gradle-convention-plugins

[Peter]

it fails with

* What went wrong:
Plugin [id: 'myproject.java-conventions'] was not found in any of the following sources:

using gradle 7.3.3

[Peter]

i have the same problems if i use build-logic + includeBuild() instead of buildSrc

[Javier]

with backticks the accessor is not being generated?

[Javier]

I don't see the gradle folder in the project tho

[Javier]

and buildSrc hasn't build.gradle.kts

[Javier]

you need that file, add the kotlin dsl plugin and maven central repo

[Peter]

there are no backticks

[Peter]

yea i cant run gradle to create the wrapper because it fails but you should be able to replicate if you have gradle installed elsewhere (eg with brew)

[ephemient]

you need a buildSrc/build.gradle or buildSrc/build.gradle.kts

[Peter]

thanks @ephemient

[Peter]

and thanks @Javier i think you were saying the same thing but i misunderstood first, thought you meant /build.gradle.kts 🙂
