​
api_generating_plugins

Returns data about API generating plugins defined or exported by this target. Those annotation processors are applied to a Java target before producing its header jars (which contain method signatures). When no API plugins are present, header jars are generated from the sources, reducing critical path. The api_generating_plugins is a subset of plugins.

​
java_outputs

Returns information about outputs of this Java/Java-like target.

​
plugins

Returns data about all plugins that a consuming target should apply. This is typically either a java_plugin itself or a java_library exporting one or more plugins. A java_library runs annotation processing with all plugins from this field appearing in deps and plugins attributes.
