I'm trying to add BuildConfig variable using gradle. I see that buildConfigField is valid when I call it on gradle buildTypes: release/debug and also on defaultConfig

but I'm trying to create this inside gradle task. for example:

task myTask{
    buildConfigField 'String', 'Test', '"value"'
}

and then call my task. but in that case when I call myTask, gradle is failed and I'm getting:

"could not find method buildConfigField"

is there any option to call buildConfigField and make it work inside task?

Thanks to @Skenia suggesting this post

I was able to find a solution, using the answer of Marian Klühspies there.

so for anyone who encounter this in the future, you can use this

android.defaultConfig.buildConfigField "String", "value", "1"

inside tasks and this will work
