创建gradle插件时，将生成的Java或Kotlin源放在哪里？

Question

I'm not quite sure about this - there's usually a directory under /build/generated , but I'm wondering if there is a standard location that's safe to write source files to which also will be included in the compilation? Environment variables? I couldn't find anything in the docs.

If it matters, this use case is a single kotlin file which I generate as a separate task based off of configs and want to include in java/kotlin compilation.

buildSrc it's a place for custom plugins, and it's a special Gradle folder as well that is read before the build.

As for generated sources, you can just define a source set for it.

sourceSets {
  main {
    java {
      srcDirs = [
        "$projectDir/src/main/java",
        "$projectDir/src/main/generated",
      ]
      include '**/*.java'
    }
  }
}
