Trying to write a custom rules module for an android app It

Question

Trying to write a custom rules module for an android app It s in a separate kotlin only gradle module Depending on it in the app with `detektPlugins project carters detekt ` and assembling my module before running detekt My META INF seems to be set correctly `src main resources META INF services io gitlab arturbosch detekt api RuleSetProvider` But I m getting this error `io gitlab arturbosch detekt api RuleSetProvider Provider com carters retail detekt CartersRuleSetProvider not found` which is the exact The package matches the folder structure matches the group matches What other weirdness should I check that could be wrong

Mmmm that s odd I d call ` carters detekt assemble` and try to unzip the jar in the `build` folder to see if the META INF file and the class files are there

yeah it beats me

Tim Oltjenbruns · Answer

Ok actually I may have just figured it out I think it s a versioning issue The formatting plugin was on 20 RC1 while everything else was on 19

Tim Oltjenbruns · Answer

And now I can t reproduce it anymore with the old number I m guessing it was just a caching issue thinking face

Tim Oltjenbruns · Answer

Definitely caching Got my plugin to load and having a hard time getting the app to recognize any updates I do even after a clean and deleting all the build folders or with rerun tasks The only thing I have found to reliably trigger a refresh of my plugin source is changing the version of detekt used I m going to keep playing around with it maybe it s an IDE thing and I need to run it from CLI gradle

Tim Oltjenbruns · Answer

Yes CLI works perfect Whenever I edit the plugin I need to force a gradle sync if I want to run the new version of the plugin via IntelliJ s Gradle

Tim Oltjenbruns · Answer

Ok I take that back it must have worked in the CLI because of a new Daemon instance Running with ` no daemon` seems to do the trick

gt maybe it s an IDE thing and I need to run it from CLI gradle Never heard anything about this thinking face I would try with a ` gradlew stop` to make sure Gradle is not caching older classloaders

Tim Oltjenbruns · Answer

Good call I ll try that next The only thing that s working for me now is no daemon

Tim Oltjenbruns · Answer

Required both for ide and cli

gammax · Answer

I think that could be needed while you develop your common extension But once you re done with it it should work with the daemon

Tim Oltjenbruns · Answer

Yeah that lines up with my experience If I change the detekt extension I need to restart the daemon

Tim Oltjenbruns · Answer

But as long as the extension stays the same I m good
