argelbargel / gradle-build-modules

Gradle Plugin which allows you to structure your projects into separate modules living in separate git-repositories

Gradle Build-Modules-Plugin

This is a Gradle-Plugin which allows you to easily create a gradle-build which ties together multiple otherwise separate gradle-projects. It's use-case is quite similar to that of gradle's own Composite builds.

Apply plugins to your project(s)

See src/example for a minimal example-project.

In settings.gradle of your master-build:

buildscript {
    repositories {
        mavenLocal()
        mavenCentral()
        gradlePluginPortal()
        maven { url 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Argelbargel/gradle-build-modules/mvn-repo/' }
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath 'argelbargel.gradle.plugins:build-modules:0.5'
    }
}

apply plugin: 'argelbargel.build-modules.manager'

Additionally you must add a file build-modules.properties listing all modules and their source-code-repositories (currently only git is supported), for example:

module1=http\://git.example.com/module1.git
module2=http\://git.example.com/module2.git

In build.gradle of any project which should be a module of your master-build:

buildscript {
    repositories {
        mavenLocal()
        mavenCentral()
        gradlePluginPortal()
        maven { url 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Argelbargel/gradle-build-modules/mvn-repo/' }
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath 'argelbargel.gradle.plugins:build-modules:0.5'
    }
}

apply plugin: 'argelbargel.build-modules.module'

Additonally you must add the following properties to gradle.properties of each module:

buildModule.name=<module-name>
buildModule.group=<module-group>
