Below I've set the version for all projects

allprojects {
    version='1.0.0'
}

I'd rather have it in a file gradle.properties. But is it going to apply to all projects ?

CodePudding user response：

Declaring properties in gradle.properties instead of in build scripts is indeed a good practice, see https://docs.gradle.org/current/userguide/organizing_gradle_projects.html#declare_properties_in_gradle_properties_file

Properties defined in the root project will be inherited to sub-projects, thanks to properties scopes as described here https://docs.gradle.org/current/dsl/org.gradle.api.Project.html#N14DEB

The extra properties and convention properties are inherited from the project's parent, recursively up to the root project. The properties of this scope are read-only.

So yes, you can define version (and other common properties) in gradle.properties, these will be applied to all (sub)projects
