Variant

abstract @NonNull MapProperty<@NonNull String, @NonNull BuildConfigField<@NonNull Serializable>> getBuildConfigFields()

Variant's BuildConfigField which will be generated in the BuildConfig class.

@Incubating
abstract @NonNull List<@NonNull Component> getComponents()

List containing this variant and all of its nestedComponents

Example:

androidComponents.onVariants(selector().withName("debug")) {
    // components contains the debug variant along with its unitTests, androidTests, and
    // testFixtures (if enabled).
    components.forEach { component ->
        component.runtimeConfiguration
            .resolutionStrategy
            .dependencySubstitution {
                substitute(project(":foo")).using(project(":bar"))
            }
    }
}

@Incubating
abstract @NonNull MapProperty<@NonNull String, @NonNull Object> getExperimentalProperties()

Additional per variant experimental properties.

Initialized from com.android.build.api.dsl.CommonExtension.experimentalProperties

abstract T <T extends Object> getExtension(@NonNull Class<@NonNull T> type)

Returns an extension object registered via the VariantBuilder.registerExtension API or null if none were registered under the passed type.

abstract ExternalNativeBuild getExternalNativeBuild()

Variant's cmake ExternalNativeBuild, initialized by merging the product flavor values or null if no cmake external build is configured for this variant.

abstract @NonNull MapProperty<@NonNull String, @NonNull String> getManifestPlaceholders()

MapProperty of the variant's manifest placeholders.

Placeholders are organized with a key and a value. The value is a String that will be used as is in the merged manifest.

abstract Integer getMaxSdk()

Gets the maximum supported SDK Version for this variant.

abstract @NonNull AndroidVersion getMinSdk()

Gets the minimum supported SDK Version for this variant.

@Incubating
abstract @NonNull List<@NonNull Component> getNestedComponents()

List of the components nested in this variant, the returned list will contain:

• UnitTest component if the unit tests for this variant are enabled,

• AndroidTest component if this variant HasAndroidTest and android tests for this variant are enabled,

• TestFixtures component if this variant HasTestFixtures and test fixtures for this variant are enabled.

Use this list to do operations on all nested components of this variant without having to manually check whether the variant has each component.

Example:

androidComponents.onVariants(selector().withName("debug")) {
    // will return unitTests, androidTests, testFixtures for the debug variant (if enabled).
    nestedComponents.forEach { component ->
        component.transformClassesWith(NestedComponentsClassVisitorFactory::class.java,
                                       InstrumentationScope.Project) {}
    }
}

abstract @NonNull Packaging getPackaging()

Variant's packagingOptions, initialized by the corresponding global DSL element.

abstract @NonNull ListProperty<@NonNull RegularFile> getProguardFiles()

List of proguard configuration files for this variant. The list is initialized from the corresponding DSL element, and cannot be queried at configuration time. At configuration time, you can only add new elements to the list.

This list will be initialized from com.android.build.api.dsl.VariantDimension#proguardFile for non test related variants and from com.android.build.api.dsl.VariantDimension.testProguardFiles for test related variants.

abstract @NonNull AndroidVersion getTargetSdkVersion()

Gets the target SDK Version for this variant.

abstract UnitTest getUnitTest()

Variant's UnitTest, or null if the unit tests for this variant are disabled.

@Incubating
abstract void missingDimensionStrategy(
    @NonNull String dimension,
    @NonNull String requestedValues
)

Set up a new matching request for a given flavor dimension and value.
