Get Android gradle plugin & checkstyle working together / command line usage

Question

I\'m evaluating the ability of the new gradle-based build system to reproduce our current ant-based build process and, as a gradle beginner, I failed to get checkstyle runni

Answer 1

You can try Android Check plugin (https://github.com/noveogroup/android-check):

• Checkstyle
• PMD

Configuration:

buildscript {
    repositories { jcenter() }
    dependencies {
        ...
        classpath 'com.noveogroup.android:check:+'
        ...
    }
}

apply plugin: 'com.noveogroup.android.check'

You can use hardcore configuration:

check {
    abortOnError true
    checkstyle { config hard() }
    pmd { config hard() }
}
