android-classpath-generator

This repo is intended for users who are having trouble getting Android projects to work with JDTLS. Thanksfully init.gradle come from JDTLS could also work standalone, only need some minor tweaks.

classpathgen.sh

Usage:

./gradlew -I init.gradle eclipse

or

./classpathgen.sh

To update the init.gradle file:

./classpathgen.sh -u

After generate classpath, disable JDTLS update classpath(always do it manually by ourself)

init_options = {
    settings = {
        java = {
            import = {
                gradle = {
                    -- See: https://www.reddit.com/r/neovim/comments/1m3v9kk/jdtls_keeps_regenerating_my_classpath_for_a/
                    -- do not let jdtls generate .classpath, manually generate it
                    enabled = false,
                },
            },
        },
    },
},

and clean cache if you need

rm ~/.cache/jdtls/workspace/.metadata -rf  

now android project should work well with jdtls

vim-android This awesome vim-android plugin use similiar apporach, but do not rely on eclipse plugin. but generate metadata directly from android plugin. and manually create .classpath. ./gradlew -I init.gradle vim this inspire me maybe jdtls using same way to do this, and turn out to be true.
