Gradle plugin as dependency to another module

Question

Here is the structure:

/root
   /plugin
   /sample

Is it possible somehow to add locally the plugin as a dependency plugin to the sample?

So assuming that the plugin creates a plugin with the id my.example.android:1.0 I want to use the following to the sample project:

apply plugin 'my.example.android

Answer 1

You can do buildscript "../plugin/plugin.gradle", if it's a simple gradle script. If it is standalone then you need to publish to a repo and do the builscript + apply statements.
