This project explores common infrastructure and best practices for open source Java projects for the Google Cloud Platform (GCP).

Google Cloud Platform Java Dependency Dashboard (runs daily; work in progress) shows multiple checks on the consistency among Google Cloud Java libraries. For manually generating the dashboard, see its README.

Google Best Practices for Java Libraries are rules that minimize problems for consumers of interconnected Java libraries.

Linkage Checker Enforcer Rule detects linkage errors in the current Maven project as part of build.

For its usage, see the enforcer rule documentation.

Linkage Checker Gradle Plugin provides the linkageCheck task that detects linkage errors in the current Gradle project.

For its usage, see the plugin documentation.

The GCP Libraries BOM is a Bill-of-Materials (BOM) that provides consistent versions of Google Cloud Java libraries that work together without linkage errors.

This project is built using Maven.
