Could not find method android() in root of multimodule project

问题

When trying to add parallel build for set of Android projects

For root build.gradle I added from template

subprojects {
    android{
        //{ for classic Android Eclipse project
        sourceSets {
            main {
                manifest.srcFile 'AndroidManifest.xml'
                java.srcDirs = ['src']
                resources.srcDirs = ['src']
                aidl.srcDirs = ['src']
                renderscript.srcDirs = ['src']
                res.srcDirs = ['res']
                assets.srcDirs = ['assets']
            }

            // Move the tests to tests/java, tests/res, etc...
            androidTest.setRoot('tests')

            // Move the build types to build-types/<type>
            // For instance, build-types/debug/java, build-types/debug/AndroidManifest.xml, ...
            // This moves them out of them default location under src/<type>/... which would
            // conflict with src/ being used by the main source set.
            // Adding new build types or product flavors should be accompanied
            // by a similar customization.
            debug.setRoot('build-types/debug')
            release.setRoot('build-types/release')
        }
        //}
    }
}

But got error Could not find method android() ...

14:14:57.016 [ERROR] [org.gradle.BuildExceptionReporter] FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.
14:14:57.016 [ERROR] [org.gradle.BuildExceptionReporter]

14:14:57.017 [ERROR] [org.gradle.BuildExceptionReporter] * What went wrong:

14:14:57.018 [ERROR] [org.gradle.BuildExceptionReporter]

Do I have to copy-paste such configuration in every module?
Is there way to configure set of android project from one root build.gradle?

Similar to Could not find property 'android' on root project there is no code at root level.

Used versions:

>gradle -v

You first need to apply the android plugin inside subprojects.
