Using Hugo Plugin

Question

I'm trying to use the Hugo library developed by Jake Wharton.

I added the statement:

compile 'com.jakewharton.hugo:hugo-plugin:1.2.1'

to my dependencies in my build.gradle file at the app level.

Then when I try to annotate with @DebugLog on my methods, it appears in red, as if the IDE doesn't recognize it.

I tried typing in an import statement like:

import com.jakewharton.hugo;

but the jakewharton part of the import statement appears in red, meaning it doesn't see it.

I've googled, and found references like:

classpath 'com.jakewharton.hugo:hugo-plugin:1.2.1'

I'm not sure what the difference between compile and classpath is.

Also, I see a reference to:

apply plugin: 'hugo'

Where should that go?

As you can see I'm totally lost. Any ideas on how to make this work is greatly appreaciated.

I'm not sure you are referencing the app module build.gradle or the project level build.gradle.

But eventually, I put it all in the app module build.grade and it worked for me. This is how the file looked like:

buildscript {
    repositories {
        mavenCentral()
    }

    dependencies {
        classpath 'com.jakewharton.hugo:hugo-plugin:1.2.1'
    }
}

apply plugin: 'com.android.application'
apply plugin: 'com.jakewharton.hugo'

android {
    compileSdkVersion 22
    buildToolsVersion "22.0.1"

    defaultConfig {
        applicationId "com.example.app_name"
        minSdkVersion 21
        targetSdkVersion 22
        versionCode 1
        versionName "1.0"
    }
    buildTypes {
        release {
            minifyEnabled false
            proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
        }
    }
}

dependencies {
    compile fileTree(include: ['*.jar'], dir: 'libs')
}

A correct configuration would look like this in your build.gradle file:

apply plugin: 'com.android.application'
apply plugin: 'com.jakewharton.hugo'

buildscript {
  repositories {
    mavenCentral()
  }

  dependencies {
    classpath 'com.jakewharton.hugo:hugo-plugin:1.2.1'
  }
}

dependencies {
  // Other dependencies
}

There is no need to add Hugo to the second dependencies section, this is done for you by the plugin.
