Plugin won't work with Android multimodule project #199
Comments

These issues are hard to debug since the gradle warning is very specific but not very helpful. I had this with some newer versions of the plugin. Does it fix anything to explicitly request android specific configs in the licenseReport block for all modules? |

In case it's helpful, here's how I worked around this issue with a React Native project:

Hello In case a project having submodules the plugin fails as identified by this open bug . Example in build the build.gradle file we have as below- Also any hint, how it can be fixed. Would be glad to know about it. |

@brsaylor2 do you remember on which gradle version you were ? it's not working for me on 6.7 with |

This seems to work for the current android plugin: https://github.com/jaredsburrows/gradle-license-plugin |
I created a minimum reproducible example here: https://github.com/tfcporciuncula/dependency-license-report-android
It's basically a blank new project with an extra library module. It was created on Android Studio 4.1.1 with Android Gradle Plugin 4.1.1. It's using Gradle 6.5, which is the default version for a new Android project right now with AS 4.1.1, but the same error happens on Gradle 6.7.1 -- there's a separate branch with Gradle updated.
I have a regular
appmodule and a separatelibmodule which is a dependency ofapp. This is the error I get when running./gradlew generateLicenseReport:This is the exception output when I run with
--stacktrace:I've tried different
configurationsvalue (releaseRuntimeClasspath,debugRuntimeClasspath,releaseCompileClasspath,debugCompileClasspath) but they all lead to the same error. If I don't set a value forconfigurationsor go with the default value (runtimeClasspath), there's no error but the report is empty. There's basically two ways to make the plugin work:libfromappas a dependency (which wouldn't make sense in a real project).implementation project(':lib')toimplementation project(path: ':lib', configuration: 'default').I'm not a Gradle expert, so I'm honestly not sure what's the implication of passing a
defaultconfigurationthere, but I'd hope there's a way for the plugin to work without the need for that change. I decided to try this after reading this other issue, but I thought it would make sense to open a separate and more specific issue about this.The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
