Is it possible to create archetypes in Gradle?

Question

Is it possible to create a Gradle archetype and then create a Gradle project based on the archetype? Just like in Maven.

I want to create a Scala or Java archetype for other developers to use as a starting point.

I currently only have an initial template in Gradle with the folder structure and initial sample startup code.

There isn't inherit support however there is a plugin available on GitHub. Haven't used it but it does look promising, last update was a few months ago.
