How to set the gradle outout folder for the kotlin2JS plugin? - gradle

I have a KotlinJs only project which I use official kotlin2js gradle to build, and no problems there.
How to setup the output folder, currently, the building of subproject will result in a build which locates inside the subproject folder, how to set it to somewhere else? I tried:
sourceSets {
main {
kotlin.outputDir = new File(‘./out/‘)
}
}
and
sourceSets {
main.kotlin.outputDir = new File(‘./out/’)
}
No luck.
What I want is to no matter how many subprojects are there, the output folder should be in some path like ./build/projectA and ./build/projectB, rather than all in their own folder. How to do this?

Currently, it's done through the task configuration, namely setting its kotlinOptions.outputFile:
compileKotlin2Js.kotlinOptions.outputFile = "out/output.js"
It's briefly mentioned in the tutorial: Getting Started with Kotlin and JavaScript with Gradle

How to create multi project fat jar as bundle of some libraries with buildSrc

First of all, sorry for my poor english.
Goal
I want create multi project containing some custom libraries as subproject with gradle.
For centralized dependency version control, using buildSrc and setting versions (spring-boot, detekt, ktlint etc.)
my-core-project(root)
+buildSrc
+-src/main/kotlin
+--int-test-convention.gradle.kts
+--library-convention.gradle.kts
+library-A
+-src
+--main/kotlin
+--test/kotlin
+-build.gradle.kts
+library-B
+-src
+--main/kotlin
+--test/kotlin
+-build.gradle.kts
+build.gradle.kts
+setting.gradle.kts
buildSrc contains common tasks for libraries(integration test, detekt, etc.)
library-A and library-B are custom libraries based on spring boot.
There is no application module or any main method.
my goal is using method of library-A and/or library-B with another separated project with adding my-core-project to dependency.
Problem
./gradlew build created 3 jar files
my-core-project
+build/libs
+-my-core-project.jar
+library-A
+-build/libs
+--library-A.jar
+library-B
+-build/libs
+--library-B.jar
copied 3 jar files to libs directory under project which actually using these library,
tried adding dependency created jar
with implementation(files("libs/library-A.jar")), class and methods are resolved well.
but with implementation(files("libs/my-core-project.jar")),
class and methods are not unresolved.
when check my-core-project.jar, recognized that any information of sub projects contained.
Here is my setting.gradle.kts and build.gradle.kts of root directory.
# setting.gradle.kts
pluginManagement {
repositories {
mavenCentral()
gradlePluginPortal()
}
}
rootProject.name = "my-core-project"
include(
"library-A",
"library-B"
)
# build.gradle.kts
plugins {
id("java-library")
id("io.spring.dependency-management")
}
group = "com.demo"
version = "0.0.1-SNAPSHOT"
dependencies {
api(project(":library-A"))
api(project(":library-B"))
}
repositories {
mavenCentral()
}
Tried things
In my opinion, my-core-project.jar should be fatJar(uberJar),
so i added FatJar task like this
val fatJar = task("fatJar", type = Jar::class) {
archiveBaseName.set("${project.name}-fat")
from(configurations.runtimeClasspath.get().map { if (it.isDirectory) it else zipTree(it) })
with(tasks.jar.get() as CopySpec)
duplicatesStrategy = DuplicatesStrategy.EXCLUDE
}
tasks {
"build" {
dependsOn(fatJar)
}
}
but cannot resolve class and method,
additionally occurs version conflict with other dependency of projects using this package, due to library-A created as fatJar too.
Question
Is there a simple way packaging/bundling sub-modules into one jar file?
if there are tasks like this already in gradle, prefer to use that.
Modifying fatJar task like "add jar of submodules, not contained dependencies" can solve this problem?(even couldn't try completely newbie to gradle and kts.)
if so, can you show me how to modify task?
tried shadowJar already. that solved version-conflict problem with relocate option. but still couldn't resolve package in library-A
If structure has problem, is there a good practice/example for "bundle of library"?
thanks for reading.
TL;DR
If someone faced this problem, try set archive name shorter than current one.
For someone who faced same problem, sharing some informations.
as result, resolved this problem.(maybe even not problem)
current shadowJar configure is as following
tasks.named<ShadowJar>("shadowJar").configure {
archiveBaseName.set("shorten-name")
archiveClassifier.set("")
exclude("**/*.kotlin_metadata")
exclude("**/*.kotlin_builtins")
}
exclude kotlin_metadata, kotlin_builtins
set shorten name(original project name was 30 long characters)
I have no idea but shorten jar file name has no problem.
Interesting one is, upload in artifactory package with original(long) name worked well.
I don't know Gradle declaring dependency with files has length constraints.
implementation(files("path/to/package"))
And now it works well with original name with local jar package file.

Use build.finalizedBy on each subproject with Gradle kotlin

I want to run a specific task after EVERY build of my subprojects. I can go into each of my subprojects build.gradle.kts file and add the following
tasks.build {
finalizedBy("afterbuildtask")
}
However, this should be possible to do in my root project build.gradle.kts file right? I tried it by doing the following:
subprojects {
this.tasks.findByName("build")?.dependsOn("afterbuildtask")
}
But nothing happens. How can I achieve this?
You can't programatically execute tasks from other tasks in newer versions of Gradle.
Instead, you are supposed to declare task dependencies and Gradle will ensure they get executed in the correct order. But I think it's not what you want
Alternatively, you could move your logic into the doLast block in the build task. eg:
build {
doLast {
println("Copying...")
copy {
from 'source'
into 'target'
include '*.war'
}
println("completed!")
}
}
good coding! ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Make a simple JAR in gradle

I am new to gradle builds. I wrote a custom service for cloudera manager which needs to build a JAR file with few directories. It is a simple archive file with few directories(descriptor, images and scripts). I created it with below jar command manually.
jar -cf CSDNAME.jar descriptor images scripts
Now I want to include this as part of gradle build for which I need to write a task. I searched online where I found java related stuff which is not required in my case. Can someone help with this?
That's a code snippet using the kotlin dsl. It's based on the JAR task of the java plugin.
plugins {
java
}
tasks.jar {
doFirst {
archiveBaseName.set("CSDNAME") // By default the JAR will have the project name
from("content") // source folder where you have your content
}
}
N.B: If you already have a build file, you will need to change its extension to .kts, else you'll need of course to create one.

How to execute gradle task during project import in Intellij Idea

Let's assume my build.gradle file contains task generateSources which as name suggests generates additional java files. It's easy to ensure that generateSources is executed before compileJava: compileJava.dependsOn generateSources. How can I make sure generateSources is called when importing project into Intellij Idea as well?
To elaborate on #vladimir-sitnikov's answer: I added the idea-ext-plugin to my root project:
apply plugin: 'org.jetbrains.gradle.plugin.idea-ext'
// ...
buildscript {
dependencies {
classpath "org.jetbrains.gradle.plugin.idea-ext:org.jetbrains.gradle.plugin.idea-ext.gradle.plugin:0.7"
}
}
Because without that I wasn't able to use it in my sub project, but now it works like this:
idea.project.settings.taskTriggers {
beforeSync tasks.getByName("generateSources")
}
Adding the plugin to the sub-project only didn't do it.
Note: The plugin's documentation is kind of limited, but in "DSL spec v. 0.2" is stated
beforeSync - before each Gradle project sync. Will NOT be executed on initial import
Didn't try that, but it works with existing projects.
This can be done via id("org.jetbrains.gradle.plugin.idea-ext") plugin (https://github.com/JetBrains/gradle-idea-ext-plugin).
See sample code in Gradle sources: https://github.com/gradle/gradle/blob/135fb4751faf2736c231636e8a2a92d47706a3b9/buildSrc/subprojects/ide/src/main/kotlin/org/gradle/gradlebuild/ide/IdePlugin.kt#L147
You can set the task in Gradle tool window: Execute Before Sync:

Gradle multi-project custom build.gradle file name

I have a multi-project Gradle build, which is currently configured through a single build.gradle file.
There are over 70 modules in this project, and the single (gigantic) build.gradle file has become cumbersome to use, so I'd like to split it into small per-module buildscript files.
Now, I don't want to have 70 small build.gradle files (one in each module), as that would make navigating to a specific build.gradle a pain in the IDE (the only difference between the files is their path).
What I want is my per-module buildscript files to be named after the module name.
Instead of this:
root
|--foo\
|--| build.gradle
|--bar\
|--| build.gradle
I want this:
root
|--foo\
|--| foo.gradle
|--bar\
|--| bar.gradle
Since this doesn't seem to be officially supported, I tried hacking around the root build.gradle a bit, but it seems that applying a .gradle file happens before the projects are configured, so this gives an error for projects that depend on other projects:
in root build.gradle:
subprojects { subProject ->
rootProject.apply from: "${subProject.name}/${subProject.name}.gradle"
}
foo.gradle, which is not a standard build.gradle file:
project('foo') {
dependencies {
compile project(':bar')
}
}
Is there any way of making it work like this?
A web search for "gradle rename build.gradle" rendered the below example settings.gradle file:
rootProject.buildFileName = 'epub-organizer.gradle'
rootProject.children.each { project ->
String fileBaseName = project.name.replaceAll("\p{Upper}") { "-${it.toLowerCase()}" }
project.buildFileName = "${fileBaseName}.gradle"
}
Note that the author is here also renaming the root project's build script, which you may or may not want.
One of the authors of Gradle, Hans Dockter, has said somewhere (I believe it was in his "Rocking the Gradle" demo from 2012), that he felt one of their biggest mistakes was using build.gradle as the default file name.
You can customize name of your build scripts in settings.gradle file. Check recent presentation from Ben Muschko about multi-project builds or look at Gradle sources where similar customization is done.
rootProject.children.each {
it.buildFileName = it.name + '.gradle'
}
You can find this content in Gradle in action, manning
