Deprecated imperative apply of Flutter's Gradle plugins

[adrianvintu]

Gradle has deprecated the apply plugin method.

The transitions is done here: Deprecated imperative apply of Flutter's Gradle plugins https://docs.flutter.dev/release/breaking-changes/flutter-gradle-plugin-apply

For Huawei, the settings.gradle looks like below. Notice the useModule("com.huawei.agconnect:agcp:1.9.1.303")

pluginManagement {
    def flutterSdkPath = {
        def properties = new Properties()
        file("local.properties").withInputStream { properties.load(it) }
        def flutterSdkPath = properties.getProperty("flutter.sdk")
        assert flutterSdkPath != null, "flutter.sdk not set in local.properties"
        return flutterSdkPath
    }
    settings.ext.flutterSdkPath = flutterSdkPath()

    includeBuild("${settings.ext.flutterSdkPath}/packages/flutter_tools/gradle")

    repositories {
        google()
        mavenCentral()
        maven { url 'https://developer.huawei.com/repo/' }
        gradlePluginPortal()
    }

    resolutionStrategy {
        eachPlugin {
            if (requested.id.id == "com.huawei.agconnect") {
                //https://flutter.dev/go/flutter-gradle-plugin-apply
                //https://forums.developer.huawei.com/forumPortal/en/topic/0201148914110187023
                //https://stackoverflow.com/questions/78339717/huawei-agcp-plugin-cannot-be-applied
                useModule("com.huawei.agconnect:agcp:1.9.1.303")
            }
        }
    }
}

plugins {
    id "dev.flutter.flutter-plugin-loader" version "1.0.0"
    id "com.android.application" version "8.1.1" apply false
    id "org.jetbrains.kotlin.android" version "1.9.0" apply false
    id "com.google.gms.google-services" version "4.4.0" apply false
    id "com.google.firebase.crashlytics" version "2.9.9" apply false
    id 'com.google.firebase.firebase-perf' version '1.4.2' apply false
    id "com.huawei.agconnect" version "1.9.1.303" apply false
}

include ":app"

App\build.gradle looks like

plugins {
    id "com.android.application"
    id "kotlin-android"
    id "dev.flutter.flutter-gradle-plugin"
    id "com.google.gms.google-services"
    id "com.google.firebase.crashlytics"
    id "com.huawei.agconnect"
}

def localProperties = new Properties()
def localPropertiesFile = rootProject.file('local.properties')
if (localPropertiesFile.exists()) {
    localPropertiesFile.withReader('UTF-8') { reader ->
        localProperties.load(reader)
    }
}
...

It would be great if Huawei would document this.

I tried this but I'm getting the following error:

> Failed to apply plugin 'com.huawei.agconnect'.
