How to get packageName/packageVersion/vendor

[LazyIonEs]

val kitVersion by extra("1.0.0")

compose.desktop {
    application {
        mainClass = "MainKt"
        nativeDistributions {
            targetFormats(TargetFormat.Dmg, TargetFormat.Msi, TargetFormat.Deb)
            packageName = "appName"
            packageVersion = kitVersion
            description = "description"
            copyright = "© 2024 Name. All rights reserved."
            vendor = "Name"
            licenseFile.set(project.rootProject.file("LICENSE"))
            ...
        }
    }
}

Hello! You can use some gradle plugins for code generation. For example pay attention to https://github.com/gmazzo/gradle-buildconfig-plugin. And you can configure some values with such information right in your gradle scripts. I Application you will read this values from the automatically generated class.

This method is also useful: System.getProperty("jpackage.app-version")
