How does the gradle plugin work on android?


Asked by Aniya Stuart on Nov 29, 2021 Android



Gradle and the Android plugin allow you to create different versions of your app from a single module by configuring build variants. With the Android plugin, you can build multiple APKs that each target ABI or screen density, and take advantage of Google Play's multiple APK support.
And,
When building from Android Studio: Resources take up a sizable amount of space in your APK, and packaging all these resources slows down your build. For development builds, you can tell Gradle only to package the resources you care about, for the device you are developing on.
Thereof, Or build and drop resulting jar into root directory of a project and add following snippet to build.grade buildscript { dependencies { classpath files ('gradle-idea-ext.jar') } } apply plugin: 'org.jetbrains.gradle.plugin.idea-ext'
In fact,
Gradle war plugin declares it's own provided configurations providedCompile and providedRuntime and these dependencies are not going into resulted war, but contained in the generated pom as compile. Plugin fixes such dependencies scope to provided (how it could be declared in pure maven).
