This plugin provides the ability to use ktlint to format and check your source code against the ktlint anti-bikeshedding code style.

Java 17 is the first LTS release to enforce strong encapsulation. For ktlint to work we need to add --add-opens java.base/java.lang=ALL-UNNAMED to the JVM arguments.

We recommend that you add a .mvn/jvm.config file (relative to the top level project directory) to all of your projects using this plugin. The file should have the following contents:

--add-opens java.base/java.lang=ALL-UNNAMED

We also recommend adding this to all of your projects using this plugin and building with Java 11, as it'll suppress an illegal-access warning during the build.

For other options see: https://maven.apache.org/configure.html

• ktlint:format format your Kotlin sources using ktlint.

• ktlint:check check your Kotlin sources for code style violations using ktlint.

• ktlint:ktlint generate project report of code style violations using ktlint.

General instructions on how to use the ktlint plugin can be found on the usage page.
