gradlePlugin

The gradlePlugin jar is a jar file containing plugins, tasks, extensions and utilities used for building the LabKey Server application and its modules.

If building your own LabKey module, you may choose to use these plugins or not. They bring in a lot of functionality but also make certain assumptions that you may not want to impose on your module. See the LabKey documentation for more information.

If you are making changes to the plugins, please see the internal docs for more information on how to do that, including how to develop and test locally and the versioning information.
