Disable `lint` in Android gradle - android-gradle-plugin

Question

From the Android Tools Project Site's Android Gradle Plugin User Guide I'm aware that it's possible to prevent Android's lint from aborting a build using:
lintOptions {
abortOnError false
}
I'm also aware that lint can be disabled for release builds:
lintOptions {
checkReleaseBuilds false
}
However, is it possible to completely disable lint when running e.g. gradle assembleDebug?
I'm aware of the risks and for this particular project it is wasting a fair amount of time given all the build flavors we have.

Answer 1

Surely you can do this by adding this line in your gradle.properties file:
gradle=build -x lint -x lintVitalRelease
Warning: The above line will prevent running lint for both debug and release builds!

I prepared this from a lot of different resources including Android Developer & Gradle documentation, Android Developer videos, etc - hope it helps! It really makes a huge difference in build times (incremental as well as project load time)

Answer 2

Add following lines of code inside build.gradle(app).
android {
lintOptions {
checkReleaseBuilds false
//If you want to continue even if errors found use following line
abortOnError false
}
}

Answer 3

I had similar problem and used all below options
quiet true
abortOnError false
checkReleaseBuilds false
but at the end I found that clearing and invalidating cache would be a good option to settle the matter.
