Collectors

This guardrail doesn't gather anything itself. It relies on the collectors below, which the CLI runs once per build before any check, and reads what they found from GUARDRAIL_FACTS. If a collector collects nothing, this guardrail is skipped, not failed.

Collector	Gathers	Inputs it is given
gradle	The Gradle build in the project directory: its settings and manifest, every included project, the wrapper and the distribution it pins, the version catalog, and every dependency the build files declare or the lock files resolve, with the versions its platforms supply.	projectDir

The inputs above are this guardrail's own inputs, passed straight through to the collector. Setting one in buildnote.json changes what is collected, and two guardrails configured the same way share a single collection.

Configuration

{
  "guardrails": {
      "failOn": "error",
      "checks": [
          {
              "use": "kotlin/gradle-wrapper@v1",
              "severity": "warning",
              "with": {
                  "projectDir": "."
              },
              "exemptions": []
          }
      ]
  }
}

Inputs

Input	Description	Default	Environment variable
projectDir	Directory holding the project, relative to the directory the CLI runs in.	.	GUARDRAIL_INPUT_PROJECTDIR

How to fix

Generate the wrapper and commit every file it writes:

gradle wrapper --gradle-version 8.14
git add gradlew gradlew.bat gradle/wrapper

The wrapper pins the Gradle version, so the checkout builds the same way on a laptop and on CI, without installing Gradle first.

More in kotlin

• kotlin/build-manifest. The project declares a recognised build manifest, so the build is reproducible and tooling can find it.
• kotlin/dependencies-locked. The Gradle build commits the lock files that resolve its dependencies, so the same commit builds from the same versions.
• kotlin/kotlin-version-pinned. The build declares the Kotlin compiler version, and it is no older than the configured floor.
