How can I create a number of jetty run tasks in gradle?

Question

I need create a number of different modes for running jetty in my gradle build.

They differ in system properties and classpath.

How can I do it using gradle jetty plugin?

Answer 1

you can create multiple tasks of type JettyRun . To dynamically create different task instances you can use Groovy syntax sugar.

4.times { // this can be replaced by iterating over your different environment settings 
   task "jettyRun${it}(type:JettyRun) {
       // do you custom configuration here
   }
}
