Default Configuration for a new gradle project

Help/Discuss
1

I’m curious as to why there isn’t something simple to build out a gradle project.

As an example I create a repository and then create a file named build.gradle, if I simply add a java plugin it would be really nice for a default task such as gradle default or init, etc… task name could be anything. I know you can do this yourself but it would be nice to have it build into the tool.

The goal would be to create a default structure for a new project like src/main/java and so on being created.

Thank you for a great product.

Is this sort of what you’re looking for? https://docs.gradle.org/current/userguide/build_init_plugin.html

@harish24I don’t think this question was necessarily targeted toward the Gradle Android plugin.
