Hi everyone! I want to migrate huge app to Kotlin-dsl step by step to do this I'm planing to extract pieces of code to kts files and use it from groovy. How could i achieve that. apply from: "file.gradle.kts" is not working in this case. Is there any other way?

[gildor]

What is exactly not working?
Because simple apply from kts must work, maybe problem what is inside of your file.gradle.kts

[stepango]

@gildor so far it contains simple data class, getting
unable to resolve class errors

[gildor]

@stepango You see this error on side of Groovy (when use it) or Kotlin?

[stepango]

Groovy

[gildor]

correct

[gildor]

Solution from from Alexander should work, also it make it easier to migrate dynamic scripts then reverse solution (extract kotlin code to scripts)

[stepango]

So there is no way to import kts in groovy?

[gildor]

You can import

[gildor]

problem with class itself

[stepango]

how?

[gildor]

your class is actually have name something like File_gradle$Foo

[stepango]

what i could import if no classes?

[gildor]

it’s just a way how Gradle works with kts script plugins

[gildor]

class is there, with mangled name

[gildor]

For things like data classes and so on better to use buildSrc or plugins

[gildor]

Script plugins just not intended to use like that

For me rule of thumb is, if you declare a class in a build file and want to use it in another build fire, move it to buildSrc.

what i could import if no classes?

tasks, plugin application and extension configuration, it’s a way to extract part of you build.gradle config
