Description
I use Gradle plugins to save my team hundreds of hours of unnecessary work each year, and so can you. If you need to fill a key hole in your Gradle build process, then building one or more Gradle plugins may be your ticket to saving time and boosting your productivity. This course is your one-stop, comprehensive resource to do just that.
In this course, I show you how to extend the Gradle build tool for your needs. Beginning with the project and IDE setup, I quickly move on to show the basic skeleton, which is essential for all Gradle plugins. This foundation is then adapted to fit more complicated workflows to fit both large and small projects, alike.
The patterns I discuss in this course are backed by seasoned advice, which I have garnered and practiced for years as I built and led the development of MyUPMC Android, a hospital patient portal application that uses three custom Gradle plugins every day.
Some of those concepts I discuss in this course include:
basic principles of Gradle plugin development
tips for optimizing your projects for team-wide development
hook into the Gradle lifecycle to make your plugin work seamlessly in every build
packaging multiple plugins and events into a single custom extension
publishing your work to the Gradle Plugin Repository
building private plugins alongside existing projects
By the end of this course, I am confident that you will have enough knowledge to build Gradle plugins and events from scratch. The patterns taught inside of this course generally apply to this build tool's patterns as a whole. Therefore, you can reuse these techniques regularly in your daily development and experience a similarly successful outcome.
Who this course is for:
Software engineers and developers who are looking to provide custom enhancements their Gradle-based build system
Intermediate users of Gradle who are looking to gain a deeper understanding into how it works
This course is not for you if you are just getting started using Gradle to build your own projects

I am the lead software engineer on the MyUPMC Android project, the patient portal for one of America's largest healthcare systems. The software applications I help build are geared just as much to those who are 28 as it is to those who are 88. The difficulties of appealing to such a large age group are often subdued when you make the technology feel invisible, integrated, and working just the way it should.Throughout my leadership experience, I've gained a particular aptitude for Android software architecture and development, the Gradle build system, and Git. On the web, you can find me blogging about my technical challenges and triumphs and distilling my experience down into courses here on Udemy.
