Can someone point me in the right direction

Question

snowe · Answer

sure thing

snowe · Answer

first things first

snowe · Answer

you probably don t need to use the buildscript block in the root

snowe · Answer

unless that s something for android that I m unaware of

kevin.cianfarini · Answer

okay I was just trying to convert what android studio had provided with the groovy gradle files

snowe · Answer

you can probably reduce the root gradle to something like this

snowe · Answer

hmm looks like you might need the buildscript

snowe · Answer

anyway ```allprojects repositories google jcenter ext set kotlinVersion 1 3 21 tasks register clean Delete class delete rootProject buildDir ```

snowe · Answer

after the buildscript to get rid of your error

snowe · Answer

also line 30 of the module you don t need to specify `project` you can just call `extra kotlinVersion `

kevin.cianfarini · Answer

is it `ext` or `extra`

kevin.cianfarini · Answer

I ve read conflicting information about that

snowe · Answer

in kotlin it s `extra` but the extension method is `ext`

snowe · Answer

confusing I know

kevin.cianfarini · Answer

okay

snowe · Answer

so in your allprojects block use `ext` and then when retrieving it use `extra`

snowe · Answer

though you might try this for these variables <https handstandsam com 2018 02 11 kotlin buildsrc for better gradle dependency management >

snowe · Answer

I ve heard it s better

kevin.cianfarini · Answer

okay one thing at a time

kevin.cianfarini · Answer

still unable to resolve `kotlinVersion` from extra after moving `ext` to `allProjects`

snowe · Answer

hmm

snowe · Answer

is this a `build gradle kts` or `build gradle`

kevin.cianfarini · Answer

kts

snowe · Answer

did you change anything that AS generated

kevin.cianfarini · Answer

AS generated `settings gradle` and two `build gradle` files

kevin.cianfarini · Answer

I changes all three of those

kevin.cianfarini · Answer

to ` kts`

snowe · Answer

gotcha what does your `settings gradle` look like

kevin.cianfarini · Answer

```rootProject buildFileName = build gradle kts include app ```

snowe · Answer

i think it s actually faililng to find the kotlinVersion in the buildscript

snowe · Answer

just hard code it there for now

kevin.cianfarini · Answer

hard coded the kotlin version for now Still dealing with symbol resolution issues in the build This is the output when I try to run a build now

snowe · Answer

it s not recognizing it as a kotlin file for some reason is this from the command line

kevin.cianfarini · Answer

this is not from the command line this is from the IDE

snowe · Answer

could you try cli

kevin.cianfarini · Answer

yes

kevin.cianfarini · Answer

ran ` gradlew clean amp amp gradlew build`

kevin.cianfarini · Answer

looks to be okay so far

snowe · Answer

tada

kevin.cianfarini · Answer

so I m still confused

snowe · Answer

go to AS and run a gradle refresh

kevin.cianfarini · Answer

works still no dice

snowe · Answer

ok delete all your build directories you can run clean inside AS or you can manually delete them

kevin.cianfarini · Answer

should I be worried about this

kevin.cianfarini · Answer

```warning default scripting plugin is disabled The provided plugin org jetbrains kotlin scripting compiler plugin ScriptingCompilerConfigurationComponentRegistrar is not compatible with this version of compiler```

snowe · Answer

your kotlin plugin might be out of date

kevin.cianfarini · Answer

hmmm

snowe · Answer

what version of gradle are you using

kevin.cianfarini · Answer

kotlin plugin `v1 3 21 release Studio3 4 1`

kevin.cianfarini · Answer

not quite sure how to check gradle version

kevin.cianfarini · Answer

is this relevant `com android tools build gradle 3 4 0 `

kevin.cianfarini · Answer

thanks for the help this is my first time doing something non trivial with gradle

snowe · Answer

gradle version will be in your gradle folder

snowe · Answer

`gradle wrapper gradle wrapper properties`

snowe · Answer

I haven t done any android stuff so this is a first for me as well

kevin.cianfarini · Answer

using 5 1 1

kevin.cianfarini · Answer

also I invalidated caches and restarted AS

kevin.cianfarini · Answer

works now

kevin.cianfarini · Answer

but I still can t just run the kotlin script

kevin.cianfarini · Answer

I have to do a full build which is fine I guess

snowe · Answer

what do you mean you can t just run the kotlin script

kevin.cianfarini · Answer

nevermind it s still not downloading dependencies I add

kevin.cianfarini · Answer

and

snowe · Answer

AS isn t

snowe · Answer

or cli isn t

kevin.cianfarini · Answer

right clicking in the editor of the gradle file and clicking run

snowe · Answer

that s not how gradle works

kevin.cianfarini · Answer

works fine via the CLI with gradle wrapper

kevin.cianfarini · Answer

figured it wasn t lol

snowe · Answer

the gradle file isn t runnable

snowe · Answer

you can use the tasks window in the Gradle panel

snowe · Answer

or you can click the elephant at the top there and type in the commands you want to run

snowe · Answer

do you have AS set to delegate to gradle

kevin.cianfarini · Answer

right okay I was also doing that

kevin.cianfarini · Answer

It s still not resolving a dependency I just added to my module build gradle

snowe · Answer

not

kevin.cianfarini · Answer

yes lol

snowe · Answer

ok

snowe · Answer

you can run with ` refresh dependencies`

snowe · Answer

or you can hit the refresh button

snowe · Answer

you might need to turn on `auto import`

kevin.cianfarini · Answer

man facepalming

kevin.cianfarini · Answer

duh

snowe · Answer

so did that work

kevin.cianfarini · Answer

nope

kevin.cianfarini · Answer

just finished Looked like the build was importing the dependencies but they re not showing up in the IDE

snowe · Answer

like you re getting red text

snowe · Answer

or you don t see them in the `external dependencies` section

kevin.cianfarini · Answer

I do they re there

kevin.cianfarini · Answer

what the heck is going on

kevin.cianfarini · Answer

Invalidated caches and it appeared

snowe · Answer

yeah it just sounds like you re having environment issues nothing is wrong with your build gradle kts

kevin.cianfarini · Answer

yeah

kevin.cianfarini · Answer

thanks for all the help dude I know that was super dumb lol

snowe · Answer

haha no problem didn t take much away from my time so you re all good

snowe · Answer

good luck

kevin.cianfarini · Answer

thanks
