Meta
MetaBuild is the top-level object, which has one or more Projects.
Usage
Create a subclass of MetaBuild.
Call rootProject e.g. :
val root = rootProject().apply {
application( "mypackage.MyApplication" )
kotlin().apply {
implementation( ... )
implementation( core ) // See note below.
}
defaultTasks( "installDist" )}
If your project has subprojects, create a project for each of them. e.g. :
val core = subProject( "core" ).apply {
kotlin().apply {
implementation( ... )
}
}NOTE. In this example, the root project has a dependency on the core subproject. Therefore, core must be declared before root.
Finally, build the gradle scripts using buildGradleScripts.
Examples
Take a look at Example's source code, or metabuild.feather in this project's root folder.

Functions
Builds build.gradle.kts for each Project, as well as a single gradle.properties file and a single settings.gradle.kts file.
If your project already contains a gradle wrapper, then this updates it to the default version of gradle. Otherwise, it adds the gradle wrapper (The command gradle must be on your path).
If your project already contains a gradle wrapper, then this updates it to the specified version of gradle. Otherwise, it adds the gradle wrapper (The command gradle must be on your path).

Stores meta-data used by Project.publishing.
Define which repositories to use for all projects.
Declare the root project.
Declares a subproject.
Sets the JVM toolChain version for all projects. If this is omitted, then defaultToolChain is used.
