📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughAndroid Gradle support now accepts structured arguments, product flavors, configurable wrapper versions, and selectable runtime Gradle files. The vendored Gradle projects add metadata, typings, bytecode, analytics, logging, and dependency build tasks. ChangesAndroid Gradle integration
Estimated code review effort: 5 (Critical) | ~120 minutes Merge Risk: 🔴 Critical · up to Bundling and overriding the Android Gradle files changes default build behavior, but unresolved issues can break app or plugin builds, mishandle signing configuration, expose credentials in logs, and produce incorrect release artifacts. The PR is not merge-ready until these issues are fixed or explicitly accepted by the owners. Possibly related PRs

compileBytecoderunsnodewithout a timeout or exit-code context.The task shells out to an external Node process for every release build. If the compiler hangs, the build hangs with no diagnostic.

Use pluginBuildSettings.projectDir for plugin Gradle properties.
buildAar passes options.projectDir into buildPlugin, but Line 819 reads this.$projectData.projectDir. If these directories differ, setupGradle selects runtime versions for one project while the Gradle invocation receives SDK and path properties for another project. Initialize project data from pluginBuildSettings.projectDir when it is supplied, then derive all properties from that project.

appIdentifier is undefined in validateAppIdMatch and throws at execution time.
Line 1084 references appIdentifier. That name is a closure-local variable in setAppIdentifier (line 178) and does not exist here. Groovy resolves it against the project at execution time and throws MissingPropertyException.
The condition short-circuits today because setAppIdentifier assigns the same value to nsApplicationIdentifier and applicationId, so the left operand is false. If a user app.gradle overrides applicationId — the exact case this check reports — the left operand becomes true, appIdentifier is evaluated, and the task fails. validateAppIdMatch is wired through finalizedBy on the assemble tasks (line 1310), so the build fails instead of printing the warning.

Local variables shadow the project properties in the compute* version closures. Both vendored builds declare a local variable with the same name as the property that the closure reads. Groovy binds the bare reference inside the closure to the local, which is uninitialized when the closure runs, so an override resolves to null in the classpath coordinates.

Android Gradle Plugin 8 removed lintOptions replaced by lint block
💡 Result:
In the Android Gradle Plugin (AGP), the lintOptions DSL block has been deprecated and replaced by the lint block [1][2][3]. This transition began in earlier versions of AGP and is fully solidified in version 8.0 and later [1][2][4]. Key differences and migration details include: 1. Renaming and Structure: The lintOptions interface was deprecated in favor of the new Lint interface [1][2]. Unlike many other renames in the Android DSL, the Lint block is structurally unrelated to the former lintOptions block. This change allowed for cleaner API adjustments, such as removing the "is" prefix from boolean properties (e.g., isAbortOnError became abortOnError) [1][2][5]. 2. Migration: To update your configuration, simply replace the lintOptions block with the lint block in your module-level build.gradle (or build.gradle.kts) file [6][3]. Old syntax (example): android { lintOptions { abortOnError false disable 'TypographyFractions' } } New syntax (example): android { lint { abortOnError = false disable += "TypographyFractions" } } 3. Property Mapping: Most common properties have direct equivalents in the new block [3]. For example, properties like abortOnError, checkOnly, disable, enable, htmlReport, and lintConfig have been moved to the lint block [1][2]. When developing custom Gradle plugins, ensure you are using the CommonExtension interface (which covers both ApplicationExtension and LibraryExtension) to access the lint block [7][4]. If you encounter issues while migrating, refer to the Android Developers API reference for the specific Lint class properties [8].

💡 Result:
In the Android Gradle Plugin (AGP) DSL, specifically within the com.android.build.api.dsl.Lint interface (which replaced the deprecated LintOptions interface), the properties abortOnError and checkReleaseBuilds are used to control how Lint handles issues during the build process [1][2][3]. abortOnError This property determines whether the Gradle build should stop if Lint detects any errors [1][2]. - When set to true (default), the build will fail if any errors are found during the Lint analysis [1]. - When set to false, the build will continue even if errors are detected [1]. checkReleaseBuilds This property specifies whether Lint should perform checks for fatal issues during release builds [1][2]. - When set to true (default), Lint will run during release builds and abort the build if any issues with a severity of "fatal" are encountered [1]. - The actual abortion of the build is governed by the abortOnError property [1][2]. In other words, if checkReleaseBuilds is true and a fatal issue is found, the build will be aborted provided that abortOnError is also true [1][2]. Example Usage android { lint { abortOnError = true checkReleaseBuilds = true } } Note: The LintOptions interface is deprecated in favor of the Lint interface [4][3]. Both properties function similarly in both interfaces [1][2].

failOnCompilationWarnings=false still enables -Werror.
In Groovy, any non-empty String is truthy. A property passed as -PfailOnCompilationWarnings=false is the String "false", so the left operand of || is true and short-circuits. .toBoolean() is never evaluated for a non-empty value.
The build then adds -Xlint:all -Werror (line 495) and fails on any deprecation warning, against the user's explicit setting.
Evaluate the value only.

Gradle 9 Project.exec removed ExecOperations configuration cache compatibility Gradle 8.11
💡 Result:
In Gradle 9.0.0, the Project#exec and Project#javaexec methods (along with their script-level counterparts) have been officially removed [1][2]. These methods were deprecated in Gradle 8.11 to improve Configuration Cache compatibility and ensure more reliable, reproducible builds [3][4]. Because these methods were inherently incompatible with the Configuration Cache, you must migrate to alternative APIs depending on when you need to execute the process: 1. Execution Time (e.g., inside @TaskAction, doFirst, or doLast): Use the ExecOperations service [3]. This is the recommended drop-in replacement. Because you cannot access the Project instance at execution time when the configuration cache is enabled, you should inject the ExecOperations service into your task or plugin [3][5]. Example using constructor injection in a custom task: abstract class MyTask @Inject constructor(private val execOperations: ExecOperations): DefaultTask { @TaskAction fun run { execOperations.exec { commandLine("echo", "hello") } } } For ad-hoc tasks in build scripts, you can obtain ExecOperations via object factory injection [5][6]: interface ExecOps { @get:Inject val exec: ExecOperations } val execOps = objects.newInstance.exec doLast { execOps.exec { commandLine("echo", "hello") } } 2. Configuration Time: Use the ProviderFactory APIs (providers.exec or providers.javaexec) [7][3]. These are designed to integrate with the Configuration Cache by allowing Gradle to track the process output as a build input [8]. Example: val output = providers.exec { commandLine("git", "rev-parse", "HEAD") }.standardOutput.asText.get.trim Using these alternatives ensures your build logic remains compatible with the Configuration Cache and avoids the build failures associated with the removal of the Project-level exec methods [9][1].

Release minify can reference a keep-rules file that is never produced.
minifyEnabled true and proguardFiles ... METADATA_KEEP_RULES are applied whenever nsFilterMetadata is set. buildMetadata only declares and writes METADATA_KEEP_RULES when napiEngine != null (Lines 1255-1266, and proguardOut is only added at Line 1366). On an older runtime that does not declare ns_engine, a release build with -PnsFilterMetadata enables R8 with a proguard file that no task creates. R8 then fails on the missing file, or the metadata is unfiltered while R8 still shrinks the dex without the JS-reachability rules.
Gate the block on the engine as well.

🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win
A missing javac on PATH fails the build, against the documented best-effort contract.
The comment states that this task is best-effort and that a source which fails here is only dropped from the generator classpath. The implementation does not hold that contract for the tool itself. new ProcessBuilder(...).start() throws IOException when javac is not on PATH. Android builds commonly run with a JBR or JDK that is reachable through JAVA_HOME or the configured toolchain but not through PATH, so compileAppClassesForSbg then aborts the whole build.
Resolve javac from System.getProperty("java.home") first, and contain the failure.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win
-PnsFilterMetadata=false still enables filtering.
project.hasProperty("nsFilterMetadata") is true for any value, including "false". A user who passes -PnsFilterMetadata=false through android.gradleArgs or --gradleArgs gets metadata filtering, enforceClosure=true (Line 1373), and R8 minification (Lines 309-313). This is the same truthiness pattern that nsContentKeyedBindings (Lines 631-635) already handles by value.
Evaluate the value, and treat an empty value as enabled.

The gradle build scripts used to live only in the android runtime, so any fix to them had to wait for a runtime release. This bundles the app-level gradle files in `vendor/gradle-app` and copies them over the ones the runtime lays down when the platform is added, the same way the plugin build already uses `vendor/gradle-plugin`. - `vendor/gradle-app` holds `build.gradle`, `settings.gradle`, `app/build.gradle`, `app/gradle.properties` and the `app/gradle-helpers`. They are copied on top of the runtime files in `createProject`, so the runtime keeps providing everything that is not part of the overlay. - `--no-override-runtime-gradle-files` opts out and keeps the runtime files. - The directory the files come from is resolved through `getGradleFilesPath`, which already understands an `android.gradleFilesPackageName` config key so the files can later be provided by an npm package instead of the bundled copy. - The CLI now interpolates `__PACKAGE__` (android namespace) and `USER_PROJECT_ROOT` in the copied files, and honours `android.gradleVersion` by rewriting the gradle wrapper. - `--gradleArgs` becomes an array option, so it can be passed several times, and a single value may hold several space separated arguments. Arguments listed in `android.gradleArgs` are passed too, before the command line ones. Both app and plugin builds go through the same merge. - Both app and plugin gradle invocations now get `-PcompileSdk`, `-PtargetSdk`, `-PbuildToolsVersion`, `-PgenerateTypings`, `-PprojectRoot` and `-PappBuildPath` (the last two also as `-D` so `settings.gradle` can read them before project properties exist). - A debug build is signed when the `--key-store-*` options are passed, which is needed for system app builds.

….gradle `-PabiFilters=<abi>[,<abi>]` now narrows the native build down to those abis instead of being ignored, and an apk debug build splits so each abi gets its own package. `-PsplitEnabled` forces the split on for any build type; `-PonlyX86` keeps its old meaning and disables splitting. The property is what the CLI passes for the devices a run is about to deploy to, so this needs NativeScript#6130 to be fully functional - on its own it only makes the property meaningful for anyone passing it through `--gradleArgs`.

Use the `=` form so the value is not mistaken for another flag, for example `--gradleArgs="-PsomeProperty=value"`. Arguments listed under `android.gradleArgs` in `nativescript.config` are passed too, before these ones. |

What
The gradle build scripts for an android app live only in the android runtime today, so fixing one means waiting for a runtime release. This PR ships them with the CLI instead, in
vendor/gradle-app, and copies them over the files the runtime lays down — exactly the wayvendor/gradle-pluginalready works for plugin builds.It also reworks
--gradleArgsso it can be passed more than once and can be set fromnativescript.config, and passes the properties those build scripts need.How the override works
AndroidProjectService.createProjectcopiesvendor/gradle-app/*on top of the freshly extracted runtime files. The overlay is partial: everything it does not contain (rootgradle.properties,gradle-helpers/paths.gradle,build-tools,gradlew, …) still comes from the runtime.--no-override-runtime-gradle-filesskips the copy and keeps the runtime files untouched.Against
@nativescript/android@9.0.5,build.gradle,settings.gradleand the threegradle-helpersfiles are byte-identical to what the runtime ships; onlyapp/build.gradlecarries changes (see below).The CLI now interpolates the copied files:
__PACKAGE__inapp/build.gradle→ the android application id (the file declaresnamespace "__PACKAGE__"instead of deriving it from the preparedpackage.json, so the namespace is known at configuration time).USER_PROJECT_ROOTinbuild.gradleandsettings.gradle→ the real relative path back to the project root, instead of a hardcoded../...android.gradleVersioninnativescript.config, when set, rewritesgradle/wrapper/gradle-wrapper.properties.Every sed is guarded by an existence check and is a no-op on the runtime's own files, so nothing changes when the override is turned off.
Ready for gradle files from an npm package
The source directory is resolved by
getGradleFilesPath(), which readsandroid.gradleFilesPackageNamefromnativescript.configand falls back to the copy bundled with the CLI. A follow-up PR will build the plugin side on top of this.--gradleArgs--gradleArgs="-Pfoo=1" --gradleArgs="-Pbar=2". A single value may still hold several space separated arguments. Use the=form so a value starting with-is not parsed as another flag.android.gradleArgsinnativescript.configis passed too, before the command line ones..aar) builds go through the same merge, sons plugin buildand the implicit plugin builds during prepare behave the same.Properties passed to gradle
App and plugin invocations now get
-PcompileSdk,-PtargetSdk,-PbuildToolsVersion,-PgenerateTypings,-PprojectRootand-PappBuildPath. The last two are also passed as-Dsystem properties becausesettings.gradleruns before project properties exist.IProjectData.getBuildRelativeDirectoryPath()was added forappBuildPath; it returns the platforms directory relative to the project root.Other behaviour changes
--key-store-*options are given (useful for system app builds). Previously the keystore properties were only forwarded for--release, and--releasewithout a keystore crashed onpath.resolve(undefined); it now just skips the signing properties.--stacktrace --infois passed atDEBUGlog level, matching the existingTRACE/INFOmapping.vendor/gradle-plugingets the same treatment as the app files: it resolves the project root from-PprojectRoot/-DprojectRootrather than counting../segments, loads the project'sgradle.properties/additional_gradle.properties, appliesbefore-plugins.gradle, and honoursaarIgnoreFilter/jarIgnoreFilter. The deadjcenter()repository was dropped.Notes for reviewers
These files come from https://github.com/Akylas/nativescript-cli, where they have been in production use. Two deliberate differences from
@nativescript/android@9.0.5'sapp/build.gradleworth a look:kotlin { jvmToolchain(17) }replaceskotlinOptions { jvmTarget = '17' }. Happy to revert this hunk if you would rather not require a JDK 17 toolchain to be resolvable.app/build.gradlecarries an opt-in bytecode compilation step gated on anns_enginegradle property.@nativescript/android@9.0.5does not declare that property, so the task is inert with the official runtime.Analytics collection (
build-statistics.json, whichAndroidProjectServicereads) is kept intact.Tests
npm test— 1863 passing. Added coverage for the gradle args merging/splitting, and a test asserting the bundled gradle files are actually part of the publisheddist.Summary by CodeRabbit
