Hi,

Are any versions of this plugin compatible with Gradle 6.9.2?

Thanks!

No. The plugin uses the following features that require Gradle 7+

  • Version Catalog
  • DependencyHandler.addProvider(...) API
  • providers.fileContents(...).asText during configuration time in a way that is compatible with the configuration cache (requires 7.4+ to be used like it is used now)

However, none of these are necessary for the core functionality of this plugin. I think it should be possible to get the plugin's core functionality working with 6.9+ (probably 6.4+) but it will make the code more complicated.

What's blocking you from upgrading to Gradle 7?
