为什么Gradle需要一个settings.gradle文件？ [英] Why does Gradle need a settings.gradle file?

问题描述

我的Eclipse工作区非常简单：

 工作区
 MyApp 
 MyApp-AndroidLibrary 
  

当我在MyApp中添加build.gradle文件时，我想引用我的Android库项目：

  apply plugin ：'android'
 
 dependencies {
编译fileTree（dir：'libs'，include：'* .jar'）
编译项目（'：MyApp-AndroidLibrary'）
} 
  

运行gradle build时，出现错误Project with path：MyApp -AndroidLibrary无法在根项目中找到，我为此搜索了一下，发现我需要在工作区目录中设置一个settings.gradle文件，以添加

  include：MyApp
 include：MyApp-AndroidLibrary
  

这对我来说太糟糕了，为什么Gradle需要一个settings.gradle文件 ，为什么不提取我在依赖关系中定义的项目？

什么 include 真的意味着什么？如果我在工作区中安装了应用程序和其他共享库，那么结构可能如下所示：

 工作区
 App1 
 App2 
 Library1（由App1和App2使用）
 Library2（仅用于App1）
 Library3（仅用于App2）
  

因为只有一个settings.gradle文件，所以我必须将它们全部添加到settings.gradle中。这听起来并不好。

是的，我可以重新组织结构以使Library2成为App1的子目录，而Library3成为App2的子目录，但对于Library1呢？

对此有何评论？

解决方案

你在问几个不同的问题。这里有一些提示：

• '：MyApp-AndroidLibrary'是一个逻辑项目路径，根据 settings.gradle 中提供的信息映射到物理路径。


• A多项目构建可以具有任意目录结构，该结构在 settings.gradle 中配置。除非需要，否则无需移动目录。


• Eclipse工作区和Gradle构建是单独的边界。您可以在同一个工作区中创建多个构建。


• 使用源代码构建的库时，可以将它们构建为同一个构建的一部分，也可以为它们单独构建。在后一种情况下，您需要确保在应用程序之前构建库，并通过Maven或Ivy存储库交换工件。这可以使用CI服务器和公司的Maven / Ivy存储库自动执行。或者，您可以在您的计算机上手动触发库的构建，并使用本地Maven / Ivy存储库。

I am going to convert my Android projects from Ant to Gradle.

My Eclipse workspace is very simple:

Workspace
     MyApp
     MyApp-AndroidLibrary

When I add a build.gradle file in MyApp, I want to reference my Android library project:

apply plugin: 'android'

dependencies {
     compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: '*.jar')
     compile project(':MyApp-AndroidLibrary')
}

When I run gradle build, there is an error "Project with path ':MyApp-AndroidLibrary' could not be found in root project", I googled for this, and found I need to setup a "settings.gradle" file in my workspace directory, to add

include ":MyApp"
include ":MyApp-AndroidLibrary"

This looks too bad for me, why Gradle need a settings.gradle file, why not just extract the projects I defined in the dependencies?

And what include really means? What if I have anotoher app and some other shared libraries in workspace, the structure may look like this:

Workspace
     App1
     App2
     Library1(Used by App1 & App2)
     Library2(Used only by App1)
     Library3(Used only by App2)

Because there is only ONE settings.gradle file, I had to add them all into settings.gradle. That does not smell good.

And yes, I can re-organize the strucuture to make Library2 into a child directory of App1, and Library3 to be a child directory of App2, but what about Library1?

Any comment on this?

解决方案

You are asking several different questions. Here are some hints:

• ':MyApp-AndroidLibrary' is a logical project path, which gets mapped to a physical path based on information provided in settings.gradle.
• A multi-project build can have an arbitrary directory structure, which is configured in settings.gradle. No need to move directories around, unless you want to.
• Eclipse workspace and Gradle build are separate boundaries. You can have multiple builds in the same workspace.
• When working with libraries built from source, you can either make them part of the same build, or have a separate build for them. In the latter case, you need to make sure to build the library before the app, and exchange artifacts via a Maven or Ivy repository. This could be automated using a CI server and a corporate Maven/Ivy repository. Alternatively, you could trigger the library's build manually on your machine and use a local Maven/Ivy repository.
