How do I get Gradle plugin?

In Android Studio, go to File > Project Structure. Then select the “project” tab on the left . Your Gradle version will be displayed here. If you are using the Gradle wrapper, then your project will have a gradle/wrapper/gradle-wrapper.

The Java Gradle Plugin development plugin can be used to assist in the development of Gradle plugins . It automatically applies the Java Library plugin, adds the gradleApi() dependency to the api configuration and performs validation of plugin metadata during jar task execution.

A plugin is simply any class that implements the Plugin interface . Gradle provides the core plugins (e.g. JavaPlugin ) as part of its distribution which means they are automatically resolved. However, non-core binary plugins need to be resolved before they can be applied.
