v0.11.1

Configurable R8 version

Gr8 0.11.0 uses R8 8.5.35 by default.

You can now override this version.

Using the https://storage.googleapis.com/r8-releases/raw repository (doc):

repositories {
  maven("https://storage.googleapis.com/r8-releases/raw")
}

gr8 {
  create("default") {
    r8Version("8.8.19")
    //...
  }
}

Gr8 can also download a R8 jar from a git sha1:

gr8 {
  create("default") {
    r8Version("887704078a06fc0090e7772c921a30602bf1a49f")
    //...
  }
}

[BREAKING] Artifact transform

Gr8 now uses an artifact transform to filter the input jars:

gr8 {
  registerFilterTransform(listOf(".*/impldep/META-INF/versions/.*"))
}

As a consequence, Gr8Configurator.configuration(String) and Gr8Configurator.classPathConfiguration(String) are removed and replaced by equivalent APIs accepting files:

gr8 {
  create("default") {
    // Replace
    configuration("shadowedDependencies")
    // With
    addProgramJarsFrom(configurations.getByName("shadowedDependencies"))
    
    // Replace
    stripGradleApi(true)
    classPathConfiguration("compileOnlyDependenciesForGr8")
    
    // With
    val compileOnlyDependenciesForGr8 = configurations.create("compileOnlyDependenciesForGr8") {
      attributes {
        attribute(ArtifactTypeDefinition.ARTIFACT_TYPE_ATTRIBUTE, FilterTransform.artifactType)
      }
      attributes {
        attribute(Usage.USAGE_ATTRIBUTE, project.objects.named<Usage>(Usage.JAVA_API))
      }
    }
    registerFilterTransform(listOf(".*/impldep/META-INF/versions/.*"))
    addClassPathJarsFrom(compileOnlyDependenciesForGr8)
  }
}
