I have a multi project gradle setup. I want to simply copy the generated jar file of any project anytime the jar is rebuild and thought this would work in my root project's subprojects closure:
task copyJarToGenerated(type: Copy) {
from jar
into "../my-generated-jars/"
}
copyJarToGenerated.mustRunAfter jar
But if I run the 'clean' task then 'jar' task of any sub project, my jar is generated under build/libs as usual but not copied.
Looking at the gradle output, it only runs compileJava, processResources, classes then jar. It isn't running copyJarToGenerated.
The method mustRunAfter
does not define a task dependency, it just enforces a specific order. It basically says 'if both tasks are executed in a build (for whatever reason), then they are executed in the specified order'.
So you need to define the task dependency on your own:
jar.finalizedBy copyJarToGenerated
You could also just add copyJarToGenerated
as a dependency of the lifecycle task build
:
build.dependsOn copyJarToGenerated
Since you specify the task jar
in the method from
of your task, it is registered as a task input and therefor registered as a task dependency implicitly. So you won't need to define order with mustRunAfter
anymore.
You may also consider using the property destinationDirectory
of the task jar
instead of creating a new task at all.
