I'm currently trying out the library, but I'm unable to import wire's gradle plugin to the project. I tried to add the following in build.gradle.kts file

plugins {
id 'application'
id 'org.jetbrains.kotlin.jvm'
id 'com.squareup.wire'
}

wire {
kotlin {
}
}

I get the error: Plugin [id: 'com.squareup.wire'] was not found in any of the following sources:

@sijanr
One get this error when no plugin version is set
add manually to versions.properties this:
plugin.com.squareup.wire=3.4.0

[jmfayard]

Should I assign the issue to you?

[sijanr]

Yes, that'd be great. Thanks!

[sijanr]

I get the same error even after setting the plugin version, .

I added plugin.com.squareup.wire=3.4.0 to the version.properties file

In build.gradle.kts, I added:
plugin {
id("com.squareup.wire")
}

wire {
kotlin{
out "${buildDir}/generate"
}
}

It's because the wire plugin is not on the Gradle Plugins portal. You need to add gradlePluginPortal() mavenCentral() in the repos in the pluginManagement in the settings.gradle.kts file.

[sijanr]

The build is successful, but I'm unable to add the following in the build.gradle.kts

wire {
kotlin {
}
}

I don't think I can generate the kotlin class of the proto file without adding the above code.

Since applying the plugin directly in the build.gradle.pluginManagement {
repositories {
gradlePluginPortal()
mavenCentral()
}
}kts wasn't working for me, I added plugin.com.squareup.wire=3.4.0 in the version.properties file.

I also added implementation ("com.squareup.wire:wire-runtime:3.4.0") to the dependencies in the build.gradle.kts file

Following your advice, I added

pluginManagement {
repositories {
gradlePluginPortal()
mavenCentral()
}
}

to the settings.gradle.kts file. Is there anything that I did wrong?

[jmfayard]

Can you push your code and open a pull request in its present state? I will try to fix it

[LouisCAD]

@sijanr pluginManagement is meant for the settings.gradle.kts file.

Also, please use triple backticks for code snippets.

This is what I've been able to get so far. You'll probably see a bunch of errors in the gradle build file, but it all clears out if you remove

wire {
          kotlin {}
}

[sijanr]

I also deleted the below code from the build.gradle.kts file because I just kept on receiving an error asking me remove it.

tasks.register("run", JavaExec::class.java) {
    this.main = "playground._mainKt"
}

[jmfayard]

ok, thanks!
