Collectors

This guardrail gathers nothing itself. It depends on the collectors below, which the CLI runs once per build before any check, and reads what they found out of GUARDRAIL_FACTS. A collector that collects nothing skips this guardrail rather than failing it.

CollectorGathersInputs it is given
gradleThe 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, passed straight through. Configuring one in buildnote.json changes what is collected, and two guardrails configured the same way share the one collection.

Configuration

How to fix

Generate the wrapper and commit every file it writes:

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

The wrapper pins the build tool version, so a checkout builds the same way on a laptop and on CI without Gradle installed 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 Kotlin compiler version is declared in the build, and is no older than the configured floor.
