plugin-yml

plugin-yml is a simple Gradle plugin that generates the plugin.yml plugin description file for Bukkit plugins, bungee.yml for Bungee plugins or nukkit.yml for Nukkit plugins based on the Gradle project. Various properties are set automatically (e.g. project name, version or description) and additional properties can be added using a simple DSL.

Usage

plugin-yml requires at least Gradle 5.0. Using the latest version of Gradle is recommended.

Default values

Property	Value
Plugin name	Project name
Plugin version	Project version
Plugin description	Project description
Plugin URL (Bukkit only)	url project property
Plugin author	author project property
