How to add Dokka to Android project without additional classpath in the dependencies section?


How to add Dokka documentation engine support to Android project without adding to dependencies section additional classpath. I have compatibility issues...

Dokka documentation suggests following, but it's classpath breaks my build..

buildscript {
    repositories {
        jcenter()
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath "org.jetbrains.dokka:dokka-android-gradle-plugin:0.9.17"
    }
}
apply plugin: 'org.jetbrains.dokka-android'

Solution

  • Only solution I could found:

    EasyDokkaPlugin

    Gradle script plugin to generate documentation by Dokka documentation engine in Javadoc format for Java, Kotlin, Android and non-Android projects. It's very easy, you don't need to add to dependencies section additional classpath or think about compatibility issues, you don't need additional repositories also.

    Usage

    1. Have a working Gradle build

    It is up to you.

    2. Call the script

    Add the following at the end of build.gradle of each sub-module that you wish to generate documentation:

    apply from: 'https://raw.github.com/Vorlonsoft/EasyDokkaPlugin/master/dokka.gradle'
    

    3. Generate documentation

    You can now generate documentation by Dokka documentation engine in Javadoc format:

    $ gradle dokkaJavadocsJar
    

    4. Get documentation

    Get generated documentation from ${buildDir} directory.
