I'm trying to write custom gradle plugin (for my self) that is using many external plugins like (detekt)... But it seems that this is not possible, I can write only internal tasks that are created by my plugin... It looks like that I have to build external plugin my self and use it as a jar file or to create task that is using for example detekt core API - and this is something I don't want to do...
How can I apply for example detekt library and task configuration to my custom plugin?
package com.urosjarc.gradle.tdd
import org.gradle.api.Plugin
import org.gradle.api.Project
import org.gradle.kotlin.dsl.apply
import org.gradle.kotlin.dsl.existing
import org.gradle.testing.jacoco.plugins.JacocoPlugin
class TddPlugin : Plugin<Project> {
override fun apply(target: Project) { with(target){
plugins.run {
apply(JacocoPlugin::class)
apply("io.gitlab.arturbosch.detekt")
}
task("hello").doLast {
println("Hello World from plugins! :D")
}
val detekt by tasks.existing(Detekt::class) {
reports {
html.destination = "$buildDir/detekt"
xml.enabled = false
}
}
}}
}
