Single lint report in multi-modular Android project

Does anyone know if it's possible to have single Gradle task for Lint check in the multi-modular Android project? The aim is to have the only one HTML/XML report for all modules (app + a few Android libraries).

In order to do that configure android lint only in the module where other modules are used as dependencies and enable checkDependencies in lintOptions.

ex:

There is an application module called app which uses feature_1, feature_2, feature_3 library modules as dependencies, so set checkDependencies to true in lintOptions of app module build.gradle file.

android{

    lintOptions{

        checkDependencies true // <---
        xmlReport false
        htmlReport true
        htmlOutput file("${project.rootDir}/build/reports/android-lint.html")

    }
}

Note:

when you run ./gradlew lint this will generate reports for every dependency module at each modules build/reports directory, BUT a report with all lint issues related to the project will be generated at the specified location.
