Licensee Bridge Gradle Plugin

A Gradle plugin that transforms Licensee Gradle Plugin artifacts to a format compatible with the OSS Licenses plugin.

This plugin automatically transforms the license data collected by Licensee during your app's build process into two text files:

• third_party_licenses
• third_party_licenses_metadata

These files are registered as raw resources so they can be consumed by the oss-licenses-android UI components, play-services-oss-licenses library, and other compatible libraries.

To Use

Requirements

• Licensee Gradle Plugin 1.11.0 or higher
• Android Gradle Plugin 7.4.0 or higher

Add the plugins to your project

The plugin is available from the Maven Central repository.

In your app-level build script, you must apply the Licensee Bridge Gradle Plugin after the following plugins:

• com.android.application
• app.cash.licensee

This ensures that the plugin can properly integrate with both the Android and Licensee build systems.

plugins	buildscript
root-level build.gradle.kts plugins { ... id("io.github.droibit.oss-licenses-android.licensee-bridge") version "<version>" apply false } app-level build.gradle.kts plugins { ... id("io.github.droibit.oss-licenses-android.licensee-bridge") }	root-level build.gradle.kts buildscript { dependencies { ... classpath("io.github.droibit.oss-licenses-android:licensee-bridge-gradle-plugin:<version>") } } app-level build.gradle.kts plugins { ... apply(plugin = "io.github.droibit.oss-licenses-android.licensee-bridge") }

For detailed information on how to configure Licensee, refer to:

• Licensee Configuration

Displaying license information

After setting up this plugin, you can choose from several libraries to display the license information in your application:

• OSS Licenses Android
• play-services-oss-licenses
• Other compatible libraries
