Walkmod Gradle Plugin

The Walkmod Gradle Plugin is the first tool to provide Walkmod integration with Gradle. This plugin adds two new tasks to allow checking and applying walkmod changes to your projects.

Warning

this is a preliminary version and still some work must be done.

Installation

As long as this is a preliminary version, no fixed repository exists. If you wish to test the tool, you’ll need to install it locally from sources. A install task is provided to simplify the installation in maven local. Use the following snippet inside a Gradle build file:

build.gradle

buildscript {
    repositories {
       mavenCentral()
       jcenter()
    }

    dependencies {
        classpath 'org.walkmod:gradle-walkmod-plugin:0.0.1'
    }

    walkmod {
      chains = ['pmd']
    }
}

apply plugin: 'walkmod'

Usage

The plugin adds a three new tasks:

1. walkmodCheck: checks for possible changes. Same as using walkmod check in the command tool.

2. walkmodApply: applies changes. Same as using walkmod apply in the command tool.

3. walkmodPatch: generates a patch. Same as using walkmod patch in the command tool.

Properties

Each tasks provides the following properties for its configuration:

chains	chain names to check or apply. Type: List<String>. Default: empty (all chains).
offline	true to resolve dependencies (uses Ivy), false to resolve locally. Type: boolean. Default: false.
verbose	true to show extra information. Type: boolean. Default: false.
showErrors	true to get full details when something goes wrong. Type: boolean. Default: false.
properties	dynamic parameters for the execution. Type: String
config	walkmod configuration file (e.g walkmod.xml). Default: `` (empty). === Methods

None right now (this may change in the future).
