[jira] [Commented] (RAT-163) Gradle Rat plugin

["Konstantin Boudnik (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

Konstantin Boudnik commented on RAT-163:
----------------------------------------

Apache Bigtop is almost completely on Gradle now. RAT check is one of the last anchors that forces us to still have parts of the build in Maven. Having this would be just _great_!

> A number of new Apache projects, such as Samza, are using Gradle. However, there currently does not exist a Rat plugin for Gradle. The closest alternative, the Gradle License Plugin (https://github.com/hierynomus/license-gradle-plugin) is not flexible enough compared to Rat for use cases such as defining exclusion rules.
> I have created a preliminary Gradle Rat plugin as part of SAMZA-285 and would like to clean it up and make it a proper Gradle Rat plugin.
