HI all,
To reuse Gradle Configuration in subprojects, I would like to declare and then use a function, like is done here:
https://github.com/JetBrains/kotlin-wrappers/blob/master/build.gradle#L54
How can I achieve the same in Kotlin DSL?

[mkobit]

buildSrc?
https://docs.gradle.org/current/userguide/organizing_gradle_projects.html#sec:build_sources

[mkobit]

(not the exact same as the linked method)

[Alexander Weickmann]

thanks, will give it a try 🙂

[Alexander Weickmann]

how can I access classes from other plugins in my buildSrc code?

Specifically, I need to code against nu.studer.gradle.credentials.domain.CredentialsContainer

[Alexander Weickmann]

in build.gradle.kts, it is automatically recognized once I apply the plugin ...

[gildor]

Add those plugins to dependencies of buildSrc (buildSrc/build.gradle, dependencies block)

[Alexander Weickmann]

works 🙂

[Alexander Weickmann]

arrr. my gradle build has more code than my actual program

[gildor]

Also if you want to use type safe accessors in buildSrc, use precompiled script plugins (check Kotlin DSL manual for details about it)

[Alexander Weickmann]

fun Project.applyKotlinJs() {
    apply {
        plugin("kotlin2js")
    }
}

and then build.gradle.kts: applyKotlinJs()

it works, but once I add project dependencies I get implementation(group = "org.jetbrains", name = "kotlin-react", version = "$reactVersion-pre.80-kotlin-1.3.41")
^ Unresolved reference: implementation

[Alexander Weickmann]

it works when I add the plugin in build.gradle.kts as well

[gildor]

Because you are not using precompiled script plugins, you don't have type safe accessors, so or you use precompiled script plugins, or use dynamic syntax:

"implementation"("org.jetbrains:kotlin-react:$reactVersion")

[Alexander Weickmann]

alright. thank you 🙂
