How to set build.gradle file to execute checkLicenses task every time after sync about license-tools-plugin HOT 4 CLOSED

@reiko8D
You mean you'd like to run checkLicense every gradle sync on AS with configuring build.gradle, don't you?

You can it with preBuild.dependsOn(checkLicense), I think. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/27816699/android-studio-gradle-task-to-execute-after-sync

But we recommend you run the task on CI since the task takes additional time.

Thank you for your answer, I tried preBuild.dependsOn(checkLicense), but get build error

Error:(25, 0) Could not get unknown property 'checkLicense' for project ':app' of type org.gradle.api.Project.

I also asked similar question how to set build.gradle file at stackoverflow.

We will run the check task before release until we find a way to do it automatically.
Anyway, arigatou gozaimasu.

Oops, I think its my mistake. checkLicense should be checkLicenses.
checkLicense part should set correct task name you can obtain from gradle tasks.

I think stackoverflow is better than asking about it here since this issue is related to Gradle and Android Studio.

So, I close this issue.
Thanks!
