Gradle 任务 - 将参数传递给 Java 应用程序

Question

I have a Java application that runs with a custom gradle task and the application requires some arguments upon being invoked. These are:

programName ( string | -f filename | -d key | -h)
Options:
    string         Message to be used.
    -d key         Use default messages, key must be s[hort], m[edium] or l[ong].
    -f filename    Use specified file as input.
    -h             Help dialog.

Gradle task looks like:

task run (type: JavaExec){
    description = "Secure algorythm testing"
    main = 'main.Test'
    classpath = sourceSets.main.runtimeClasspath
}

I've tried running gradle run -h and it does not work.

Answer 1

Gradle 4.9+

gradle run --args='arg1 arg2'

This assumes your build.gradle is configured with the Application plugin . Your build.gradle should look similar to this:

plugins {
  // Implicitly applies Java plugin
  id: 'application'
}

application {
  // URI of your main class/application's entry point (required)
  mainClassName = 'org.gradle.sample.Main'
}

Pre-Gradle 4.9

Include the following in your build.gradle :

run {
    if (project.hasProperty("appArgs")) {
        args Eval.me(appArgs)
    }
}

Then to run: gradle run -PappArgs="['arg1', 'args2']"

Answer 2

Since Gradle 4.9, the command line arguments can be passed with --args. For example, if you want to launch the application with command line arguments foo --bar , you can use

gradle run --args='foo --bar'

Answer 3

If you want to use the same set of arguments all the time, the following is all you need.

run {
    args = ["--myarg1", "--myarg2"]
}

Answer 4

Sorry for answering so late.

I figured an answer alike to @xlm 's:

task run (type: JavaExec, dependsOn: classes){
    if(project.hasProperty('myargs')){
        args(myargs.split(','))
    }
    description = "Secure algorythm testing"
    main = "main.Test"
    classpath = sourceSets.main.runtimeClasspath
}

And invoke like:

gradle run -Pmyargs=-d,s

Answer 5

You can find the solution in Problems passing system properties and parameters when running Java class via Gradle . Both involve the use of the args property

Also you should read the difference between passing with -D or with -P that is explained in the Gradle documentation

Answer 6

Of course the answers above all do the job, but still i would like to use something like

gradle run path1 path2

well this can't be done, but what if we can:

gralde run --- path1 path2

If you think it is more elegant, then you can do it, the trick is to process the command line and modify it before gradle does, this can be done by using init scripts

The init script below:

1. Process the command line and remove --- and all other arguments following '---'
2. Add property 'appArgs' to gradle.ext

So in your run task (or JavaExec, Exec) you can:

if (project.gradle.hasProperty("appArgs")) {
                List<String> appArgs = project.gradle.appArgs;

                args appArgs

 }

The init script is:

import org.gradle.api.invocation.Gradle

Gradle aGradle = gradle

StartParameter startParameter = aGradle.startParameter

List tasks = startParameter.getTaskRequests();

List<String> appArgs = new ArrayList<>()

tasks.forEach {
   List<String> args = it.getArgs();


   Iterator<String> argsI = args.iterator();

   while (argsI.hasNext()) {

      String arg = argsI.next();

      // remove '---' and all that follow
      if (arg == "---") {
         argsI.remove();

         while (argsI.hasNext()) {

            arg = argsI.next();

            // and add it to appArgs
            appArgs.add(arg);

            argsI.remove();

        }
    }
}

}


   aGradle.ext.appArgs = appArgs

Limitations:

1. I was forced to use '---' and not '--'
2. You have to add some global init script

If you don't like global init script, you can specify it in command line

gradle -I init.gradle run --- f:/temp/x.xml

Or better add an alias to your shell:

gradleapp run --- f:/temp/x.xml

Answer 7

You need to pass them as args to the task using project properties, something like:

args = [project.property('h')]

added to your task definition (see the dsl docs )

Then you can run it as:

gradle -Ph run
