How to accept Gradle ToS for `build --scan` automatically and still manage to run build without a scan?

I am using Gradle 4.6 which allows me to run build scans using the --scan option without having to explicitly apply or download extra plugins which is great. However this forces me to add the buildScan Terms of Service acceptance in my build.gradle file.

like this:

buildScan {
    termsOfServiceUrl = 'https://gradle.com/terms-of-service'
    termsOfServiceAgree = 'yes'
}

When I subsequently run gradle build without the --scan option I get the following error message:

> Could not find method buildScan() for arguments…

I don’t want to have to modify the build.gradle file every time I want/dont want a scan. I don’t want to apply the plugin explicitly (firewall issues) and I don’t get the chance to accept the of Terms of Service on the command line which I have also seen documented.

Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong?

This question is formatted like a quote because it was already asked on Gradle Forums. But it's left without answer. I'm using Gradle 4.10.2 and the problem is still actual. I decided to draw more attention to this problem here.

You can pipe "yes" as the answer using the echo command

For example,

echo "yes" | ./gradlew build --scan

Just test the existence of buildScan

if (hasProperty('buildScan')) {
    buildScan {
        termsOfServiceUrl = 'https://gradle.com/terms-of-service'
        termsOfServiceAgree = 'yes'
    }
}

The same can be done in a kotlin build file like this - (with thanks to this answer):

if (hasProperty("buildScan")) {
    extensions.findByName("buildScan")?.withGroovyBuilder {
        setProperty("termsOfServiceUrl", "https://gradle.com/terms-of-service")
        setProperty("termsOfServiceAgree", "yes")
    }
}

Please see Connecting to scans.gradle.com documentation for more detail.

This might not be a good or proper solution, but here's one workaround: use a try/catch to swallow the error, something like:

try {
    buildScan {
        termsOfServiceUrl = 'https://gradle.com/terms-of-service'
        termsOfServiceAgree = 'yes'
    }
} catch (MissingMethodException e){
   // This isn't the exception you're looking for
}
