avoid lint when gradle execute check

Question

could someone tell me a way to avoid executing "lint" each time I run in gradle check?

I've defined in build.gradle

lintOptions {       quiet true   } 

However, it keeps doing this task. The problem is that it takes ages each time I have to do a check.

Answer 1

gradle build -x lint

Answer 2

You can skip it using adding -x lint when you run the check task:

./gradlew check -x lint  

If you want to skip it permanently you can add this to your build.gradle before apply plugin: 'com.android.application':

tasks.whenTaskAdded { task ->     if (task.name.equals("lint")) {         task.enabled = false     } }
