Overview

The Java Library plugin expands the capabilities of the Java plugin by providing specific knowledge about Java libraries. In particular, a Java library exposes an API to consumers, so the plugin introduces the "api" configuration. All the source sets, tasks and configurations exposed by the Java plugin are implicitly available when using this plugin. The Java Library plugin should be used by default with Java projects:

plugins {
  id 'java-library'
}

java {
  toolchain {
    languageVersion = JavaLanguageVersion.of(11)
  }
}

The Java Library plugin integrates the jar and test tasks, with the standard lifecycle tasks assemble and check, respectively.
