Gradle Utils Plugin

The idea of this library is provide a set of plugins that allow easy configurations of Android gradle files.

Library usage

buildscript {
     repositories {
         jcenter()
     }
     dependencies {
         //sometimes the gradle plugin resolve the org.eclipse.jgit dependency "incomplete"
         // gets fixed putting the dependency manually in your classpath
         // if you don't have that issue don't add the jgit classpath dependency
         classpath 'org.eclipse.jgit:org.eclipse.jgit:5.4.2.201908231537-r'
         
         classpath 'com.github.rperez93:gradle-utils:{last_version}'
     }
 }

Replace {last_version} with the last release number

Current Plugins

project-version-from-git

When this plugin is applied, it will add the projectVersionFromGitTag extension that contains the follow properties:

VersionName:  Extracted version from last github tag.
currentDateInVersionFormat: current date in format YYYYMMDD.
versionCodeLastDigit: used to complete the version code, by default is 0, it can be configured in the gradle build script.
versionCode: concatenation of currentDateInVersionFormat + versionCodeLastDigit

Usage

Apply the plugin before any other build plugin. Ex: before com.android.application plugin

apply plugin: 'project-version-from-git'

Example usage of projectVersionFromGitTag extension in an Android project:

// Using date as versionCode and git tag as versionName
versionCode projectVersionFromGitTag.versionCode
versionName projectVersionFromGitTag.versionName

utils-version-from-git-android
