Robert Stupp commented on RAT-163:
----------------------------------
Thanks a lot [~claude] & [~pottlinger] for the background info and tech info!
I'm happy to look into this. Gradle is a bit "special" because of its caching
capabilities (each task has a set of inputs and outputs, if the inputs are the
same it reuses a cached output). But I don't see a fundamental blocker to get
this working.
> Anyway, I hope this is not too much info and does not drive you away.
Not at all ;)
> Gradle Rat plugin
> -----------------
>
> Key: RAT-163
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RAT-163
> Project: Apache Rat
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Reporter: David Chen
> Priority: Major
>
> A number of new Apache projects, such as Samza, are using Gradle. However,
> there currently does not exist a Rat plugin for Gradle. The closest
> alternative, the Gradle License Plugin
> (https://github.com/hierynomus/license-gradle-plugin) is not flexible enough
> compared to Rat for use cases such as defining exclusion rules.
> I have created a preliminary Gradle Rat plugin as part of SAMZA-285 and would
> like to clean it up and make it a proper Gradle Rat plugin.
