findbugs-android
A Gradle plugin that creates FindBugs tasks for each variant of android application or library project
Project site: https://findbugs-android.chaitanyapramod.com
Why
In order to create FindBugs report for Android projects, you need to create FindBugs tasks and configure them by providing paths to source code, compiled classes and classpath. It can be troublesome since Android projects can have different flavors and build types, thus requiring additional paths to be set. This plugin provides those tasks already configured for you.
In addition, the plugin automatically excludes Generated classes from Android databinding library, android resource, Butterknife and Dagger 2. If you want more added to this list or want it configurable, open an issue.
Usage
Apply the plugin after the Android gradle plugin. The FindBugs tasks are already hooked to the check task.
buildscript {
repositories {
// ...
jcenter()
}
dependencies {
// ...
classpath 'com.chaitanyapramod.gradle:findbugs-android:1.0'
}
}
apply plugin: 'com.android.application'
apply plugin: 'com.chaitanyapramod.findbugs-android'
android {
// ...
productFlavors {
free {}
paid {}
}
}
This would create the following Gradle tasks:
findbugsFreeDebugfindbugsFreeReleasefindbugsPaidDebugfindbugsPaidRelease
Note that running check task runs all these findbugs tasks as well.
Configuration
Use the standard findbugs extension to configure the FindBugs tasks
buildscript {
repositories {
// ...
jcenter()
}
dependencies {
// ...
classpath 'com.chaitanyapramod.gradle:findbugs-android:1.0'
}
}
apply plugin: 'com.android.application'
apply plugin: 'com.chaitanyapramod.findbugs-android'
findbugs {
toolVersion '3.0.1'
ignoreFailures true
effort 'max'
reportLevel 'high'
excludeBugsFilter = file("$rootProject.projectDir/config/findbugs/excludeBugsFilter.xml")
}
android {
// ...
productFlavors {
free {}
paid {}
}
}
Report Format
By default, XML reports are generated. You can add the following snippet to get HTML reports
tasks.withType(FindBugs) {
reports {
xml.enabled = false
html.enabled = true
}
}
