Spec for packaging and distributing Gradle plugins #244

Open tisonkun opened 5 days ago

tisonkun commented 5 days ago

Expected Behavior

Is there any specification about how Gradle plugins get packaged and distributed to the portal? I'd try to write a Maven plugin for packaging and distributing Gradle plugins, but I cannot find any specifications - is it private to Gradle?

Besides, the Gradle API libs don't seem to be available on Maven Central or other repositories. Both look like indicating that Gradle plugin development is private to the Gradle build system. Is that the case?

Current Behavior (optional)

No response

Context

Described above.

  1. Currently this is indeed private. And we do not have the bandwidth to make it public but we could one day.
  2. This is actually being worked, with the goal of having at least an answer for Gradle 9 and above.
