I somehow bashed at it and found this working

allprojects {
    ..

    afterEvaluate {
        // Apply lintOptions to every android module
        def android = it.extensions.findByName("android")
        if (android != null) {
            android.lintOptions {
                lintConfig rootProject.file("lint.xml")
            }
        }
    }

    ..
}

is there obviously something wrong with it? thanks

using afterEvaluate 🙂

You could use something like this:

allprojects { subProject ->
    def lintConfigureAction = {
        subProject.extenstions.configure(BaseExtension.class) { ext ->
    ext.lintOptions { ... }
}
    subProject.plugins.withId("com.android.application", lintConfigureAction)
    subProject.plugins.withId("com.android.library, lintConfigureAction)
}

Could not get unknown property 'BaseExtension' for root project '...' of type org.gradle.api.Project.

[tapchicoma]

com.android.build.gradle.BaseExtension

Extension of type 'BaseExtension' does not exist. Currently registered extension types: [ExtraPropertiesExtension, KtlintExtension]

Btw may I ask whats wrong with my one? I'm lost in gradle if it doesn't work

[tapchicoma]

it should work, but discouraged to use with new lazy task creation and configuration API: https://docs.gradle.org/4.10.1/release-notes.html#restricting-cross-configuration-and-lifecycle-hooks-from-lazy-configuration-apis

Also from my experience bad plugins could do additional configuration in this hook leading to undesired build behavior.

@tapchicoma did you find a way to not call .ext but have the block as a receiver?

[tapchicoma]

Doubt that this will work, as configure has Action<Class> as a second parameter. Maybe there is something in kotlin-dsl to solve it
