Does not give new version available suggestions

[krishnalalstha]

I successfully implemented but when there is new version, does not give new version available suggestions

This almost surely is an issue with Android Studio.

But it gives when all the dependency defined in the build.gradle file

[bensandee]

Yes, you're right, it's true. But it's a bug in lint or Android Studio. There's no reason lint shouldn't be able to walk through the dependencies when they come from a buildSrc file.

@tbsandee have you created a bug report (in Google's bug tracker)?

[bensandee]

Nope, I've been meaning to file several issues related to using dependencies from buildSrc kt files, but haven't had time yet.

Yeap, same thoughts here. I like pretty much the solution, but cannot make it work with Android Studio and the dependencies new version lint. Also, I've tested with Android Studio 3.3, gradle plugin 3.3.0-alpha06 and wrapper 4.9 and the Kotlin navigation doesn't work for this very project.

Here is a workaround from @hitherejoe to keep track of newer versions of libraries, but it only works when you run it in CI, not in Android Studio though.

He commented on my caster.io lesson on it: https://caster.io/lessons/gradle-dependency-management-using-kotlin-and-buildsrc-for-buildgradle-autocomplete-in-android-studio
