Gradle talk - Java Camp #3, 10 April 2010 - slides and source code

Submitted by Tomek Kaczanowski on Mon, 04/12/2010 - 19:24

If you are interested in slides (in polish) and source code of
Gradle presentation that I gave during Java Camp #3 (10 April 2010,
Cracow, Poland) you will find them here.

Please notice the source code attached at the end of this text.

Slides

You can download slides here: http://kaczanowscy.pl/tomek/sites/default/files/2010_04_java_camp_gradle...

Missing Points

I forgot (or had no time) to show some features of Gradle.

Generation of Maven POMs

Gradle can generate Maven poms and artifacts. The presentation that you can download contains an additional slide that shows how to do it. You should also check the source code section below (see "webapp" module).

Configuration is EASY

The second thing I missed is an example of how easy and straightforward is to jump out of the default configuration and change things to your liking.

Source Code

Few words about the sources. Each folder contains a separate build. Below I put some information on what commands to execute in each of them (usually the same stuff that I did during the presentation).

Important - please notice that for some projects there are also other build files (apart from the standard build.gradle) which presents some additional stuff. To run them use -b, for example ("webapp"):

gradle -b build_maven.gradle -t - will show all tasks in this build file
gradle -b build_maven.gradle install - will execute install task from this build file

ant

gradle -v
gradle -?
gradle -r
gradle -t
gradle hello
gradle myTask

basic_task

gradle
gradle -t
gradle -m third
gradle third
gradle third -x second
gradle --gui

dependencies

gradle -n
gradle uploadArchives
gradle clean
gradle zipAll
