Static code analysis plugin for Android projects. This is a fork of the original android-check plugin, which implements a really useful concept, but unfortunately seems abandoned. Works for application, library and feature modules.
Current version tested with Android plugin for Gradle 3.1.3.
This plugin is available in the Gradle Plugin Portal. It attaches itself to the check task, but you can also execute the corresponding tasks manually when desired: androidCheckstyle for CheckStyle, and androidPmd for PMD.
In order to add it to your project, you can use this snippet for Gradle 2.1 and later:
Kotlin
plugins {
id("org.stoyicker.android-check") version "+"
}Groovy
plugins {
id "org.stoyicker.android-check" version "+"
}Or this one for older Gradle versions or where dynamic configuration is required:
Kotlin
buildscript {
repositories {
gradlePluginPortal()
}
dependencies {
classpath("org.stoyicker.android-check:plugin:+")
}
}
apply(plugin = "org.stoyicker.android-check")Groovy
buildscript {
repositories {
gradlePluginPortal()
}
dependencies {
classpath("org.stoyicker.android-check:plugin:+") {
// These are to avoid some conflicts with the Android plugin due to how classloading is performed by Gradle
// Only required before Gradle 4.8: https://github.com/gradle/gradle/issues/5092
exclude module: "asm"
exclude module: "gson"
exclude module: "guava"
exclude module: "commons-logging"
// This one is required because Checkstyle and PMD use different Saxon artifacts that have overlapping packages
// Also only required before Gradle < 4.8
exclude module: "Saxon-HE"
}
}
}
apply plugin: "org.stoyicker.android-check"The default one.

}Also, if abortOnError is true, the browser will open the report for the tool that caused the failure (if your system supports it).
