Question

I m trying to use it inside `subprojects ` but so far is not letting me trollface

It should work ```subprojects dependencies ``` Also you can apply dependencies to modules with specific plugin

and this is my main `build gradle kts`

x80486 · Answer

gildor · Answer

this is because Gradle doesn t know which configuration is available on your sub project and do not generated type safe accessor `compile` for you

gildor · Answer

use ` compile some dep 1 2 3 ` instead

gildor · Answer

it s a way to add some dependency to particular configuration dynamically

I have something working right now but still I can t do what I want either in the way you propose it or without the double quotes will play with that a little bit more

gildor · Answer

What is your problem now

x80486 · Answer

I mean the same ```subprojects dependencies ```

x80486 · Answer

I m expecting that to work so I don t have to repeat the same dependencies again and again on every subproject s build script

gildor · Answer

Yes and it works for many of my company projects and my personal projects

Maybe you could show same sample and explain what is not working for your

basically I m trying to delete the `dependencies ` block from `mod ` s `build gradle kts` and have that block only in `$ root project build gradle kts`

I currently have the same setup in another Gradle project but this one using Kotlin DSL just doesn t work so far maybe I m missing something

gildor · Answer

I updated your build gradle kts I don t see any problems to just move it to submodule block as you can see I just extracted dependencies I made a few other changes of config with my comments but they are not related on dependencies sharing

gildor · Answer

sorry forgot to commit changes of other files Fixed updated PR

gildor · Answer

as you can see each of your submodules have now only 1 line of config description

gildor · Answer

Also I do not want to say that problem of configuration of submodules doesn t exist there is big discussion about this There is a few options but because of dynamic nature of such config it s not so straight forward

x80486 · Answer

I didn t know slightly smiling face also the quotes around the ` compile ` ` testCompile ` etc is a required thing That looks weird like super weird I hope that changes in the future

x80486 · Answer

Thanks for the changes It works now joy clap

gildor · Answer

It s weird because it s dynamic if you don t like this syntax use desugared version `add compile your dependency 1 2 3 ` And yes it s required thing as I mentioned on my first comment Static accessor for configuration is not a global thing different plugins provide different configurations so kotlin dsl do not allow you to use accessors that probably doesn t exist for this module because you apply configuration dynamically

gildor · Answer

`compile` is configuration of Kotlin plugin and because you apply this plugin dynamically on runtime of build you have to use dynamic syntax no type safe checks Exactly the same happening in Groovy but there Gradle handles all dynamic method calls To use static typed accessors you must use `plugins` dsl block but unfortunately you cannot share this for multiple plugins
