Oh, just as you answered I found this bit of code . It adds a file though.

It doesn't add a

File

, it adds a

Provider<File>

. That's an important distinction.

Providers

have the ability to carry task dependencies so the dependency will be ... well... carried 😄

Thanks! Do you maybe also have some opensource project which deals with generating sources and from which I could learn?

There is Apollo: https://github.com/apollographql/apollo-kotlin/blob/f6cbc453e8728a9ad576e6635fa329[…]apollographql/apollo3/gradle/internal/DefaultApolloExtension.kt
