Interface Gradle

All Superinterfaces:
PluginAware

public interface Gradle extends PluginAware
Represents an invocation of Gradle.

You can obtain a Gradle instance by calling Project.getGradle().

  • Method Details

    • getGradleVersion

      String getGradleVersion()
      Returns the current Gradle version.
      Returns:
      The Gradle version. Never returns null.
    • getGradleUserHomeDir

      File getGradleUserHomeDir()
      Returns the Gradle user home directory. This directory is used to cache downloaded resources, compiled build scripts and so on.
      Returns:
      The user home directory. Never returns null.
    • getGradleHomeDir

      @Nullable File getGradleHomeDir()
      Returns the Gradle home directory, if any. This directory is the directory containing the Gradle distribution executing this build.

      When using the “Gradle Daemon”, this may not be the same Gradle distribution that the build was started with. If an existing daemon process is running that is deemed compatible (e.g. has the desired JVM characteristics) then this daemon may be used instead of starting a new process and it may have been started from a different “gradle home”. However, it is guaranteed to be the same version of Gradle. For more information on the Gradle Daemon, please consult the user guide.

      Returns:
      The home directory. May return null.
    • getParent

      @Nullable Gradle getParent()
      Returns the parent build of this build, if any.
      Returns:
      The parent build. May return null.
    • getRootProject

      Project getRootProject() throws IllegalStateException
      Returns the root project of this build.
      Returns:
      The root project. Never returns null.
      Throws:

    • rootProject

      void rootProject(Action<? super Project> action)

    • addBuildListener

      void addBuildListener(BuildListener buildListener)
      Adds a BuildListener to this Build instance. The listener is notified of events which occur during the execution of the build.
      Parameters:
      buildListener - The listener to add.
    • addListener

      void addListener(Object listener)
      Parameters:
      listener - The listener to add. Does nothing if this listener has already been added.
    • removeListener

      void removeListener(Object listener)
      Removes the given listener from this build.
      Parameters:
      listener - The listener to remove. Does nothing if this listener has not been added.
    • useLogger

      void useLogger(Object logger)
      Uses the given object as a logger. The logger object may implement any of the listener interfaces supported by addListener(Object).

      Each listener interface has exactly one associated logger. When you call this method with a logger of a given listener type, the new logger will replace whichever logger is currently associated with the listener type. This allows you to selectively replace the standard logging which Gradle provides with your own implementation, for certain types of events.

      Parameters:
      logger - The logger to use.
    • getGradle

      Gradle getGradle()
      Returns this Gradle instance. This method is useful in init scripts to explicitly access Gradle properties and methods. For example, using gradle.parent can express your intent better than using parent. This property also allows you to access Gradle properties from a scope where the property may be hidden, such as, for example, from a method or closure.
      Returns:
      this. Never returns null.
    • getIncludedBuilds

      @Incubating Collection<IncludedBuild> getIncludedBuilds()
      Returns the included builds for this build.
      Since:
      3.1
    • includedBuild

      @Incubating IncludedBuild includedBuild(String name)
      Returns the included build with the specified name for this build.
      Since:
      3.1
