If you want the

.editorconfig

artifact, you would request it like

foo:bar:1.2.3@editorconfig

for example. But it might be better to use a feature variant for it, actually.

I can’t wrap my head around the feature variant and how it will help me achieve. It will take me a few more readings to understand. I decided to create a task to copy the file out of the configuration. I’m not quite sure if this will work well in the long run, but it works 😞

val ktlint by configurations.creating

dependencies {
    ktlint("com.company.android:ktlint-rules:1.0.0")
}

val editorconfigDir = layout.buildDirectory.file("ktlint/")
val editorconfig = layout.buildDirectory.file("ktlint/ktlint-rules.editorconfig")

tasks.register("copyEditorConfig", Copy::class) {
    from(ktlint.files) {
        include("*.editorconfig")
    }
    into(editorconfigDir)
    rename("(.+)", "ktlint-rules.editorconfig")
}
