Hilt: An exception occurred applying plugin request [id: 'dagger.hilt.android.plugin']

See original GitHub issue

I just updated to Android Studio Bumblebee Canary 4, created a new project, and getting this error when trying to add hilt plugin:

An exception occurred applying plugin request [id: 'dagger.hilt.android.plugin']
> Failed to apply plugin 'dagger.hilt.android.plugin'.
   > Could not create plugin of type 'HiltGradlePlugin'.
      > Could not generate a decorated class for type HiltGradlePlugin.
         > com/android/build/gradle/BaseExtension

* Try:
Run with --info or --debug option to get more log output. Run with --scan to get full insights.

* Exception is:

I get this with both 2.37 and 2.38. Not sure if it’s an Android Studio issue build.gradle:

task clean(type: Delete) {
    delete rootProject.buildDir
}

buildscript {
    ext {
        compose_version = '1.0.0-rc02'
        hilt_version = "2.38"
    }

    repositories {
        google()
        mavenCentral()
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath "com.google.dagger:hilt-android-gradle-plugin:$hilt_version"
    }
}

app/build.gradle:

plugins {
    id 'com.android.application'
    id 'org.jetbrains.kotlin.android'
    id "org.jetbrains.kotlin.kapt"
    id "dagger.hilt.android.plugin"
}

dependencies {
    implementation "com.google.dagger:hilt-android:$hilt_version"
    kapt "com.google.dagger:hilt-compiler:$hilt_version"
}

settings.gradle:

pluginManagement {
    repositories {
        gradlePluginPortal()
        google()
        mavenCentral()
    }
    plugins {
        id 'com.android.application' version '7.1.0-alpha04'
        id 'com.android.library' version '7.1.0-alpha04'
        id 'org.jetbrains.kotlin.android' version '1.5.10'
        id "org.jetbrains.kotlin.kapt" version "1.5.10"
    }
}
dependencyResolutionManagement {
    repositoriesMode.set(RepositoriesMode.FAIL_ON_PROJECT_REPOS)
    repositories {
        google()
        mavenCentral()
    }
}
rootProject.name = "ProjectName"

Per Gradle’s documentation: https://docs.gradle.org/current/userguide/plugins.html#sec:plugin_management in order to specify the coordinates of a plugin you need to use the resolutionStrategy DSL.

Like this:

pluginManagement {
    repositories {
        gradlePluginPortal()
        google()
        mavenCentral()
    }
    plugins {
        id 'com.android.application' version '7.1.0-alpha06'
        id 'com.android.library' version '7.1.0-alpha06'
        // No need to define the Hilt plugin here.
    }
    resolutionStrategy {
        eachPlugin {
            // Use `resolutionStrategy` to define the Hilt plugin and its coordinate
            if (requested.id.id == 'dagger.hilt.android.plugin') {
                useModule('com.google.dagger:hilt-android-gradle-plugin:2.38.1')
            }
        }
    }
}

This is needed for external plugins without a plugin marker or that are not uploaded into Gradle’s Plugin Portal.

In order to avoid using resolutionStrategy we need to publish a plugin marker (https://docs.gradle.org/current/userguide/plugins.html#sec:plugin_markers). I’m not super familiar with it but I’ll try to make one so users don’t need to use the resolution strategy.
