Infer Gradle Plugin

This Gradle plug-in creates tasks to run Infer on Android and Java projects.

Deprecated

This plug-in isn't used or maintained by the original authors anymore. For null checking, we recommend migrating to NullAway. If you're still using Infer for additional checks, we recomend investigating other approaches as this plug-in isn't actively being worked on.

Integration

To use this plug-in, you must have Infer installed.

Add the plug-in dependency and apply it in your project's build.gradle:

buildscript {
    repositories {
        mavenCentral()
    }
    dependencies {
        ...
        classpath "com.uber:infer-plugin:0.7.4"
    }
}

Applying the Plugin

Android

apply plugin: 'com.android.application'
apply plugin: 'com.uber.infer.android'

Java

apply plugin: 'java'
apply plugin: 'com.uber.infer.java'

Including and Excluding

In the build.gradle of the project that applies the plugin:

inferPlugin {
    infer {
        include = project.files("<PATH_TO_INCLUDE>")
        exclude = project.files("<PATH_TO_EXCLUDE>")
    }
    eradicate {
        include = project.files("<PATH_TO_INCLUDE>")
        exclude = project.files("<PATH_TO_EXCLUDE>")
    }
}

Tasks

  • infer - runs Infer's standard analyzer.
  • eradicate - runs Infer's Eradicate analyzer.

For Android projects, the plug-in will create a task for each build variant in your application or library (for example, debug and release).

  • inferVaraint - runs Infer's standard analyzer.
  • eradicateVariant - runs Infer's Eradicate analyzer.

For a specific list of tasks available on your project, run Gradle's tasks command.
