Task
はクラスのコンパイルやjavadocの生成など、ビルドに対する単一のアトミックな断片を表します。A Task
represents a single atomic piece of work for a build, such as compiling classes or generating
javadoc.
Each task belongs to a Project
. You can use the various methods on TaskContainer
to create and lookup task instances. For example, TaskContainer.create(String)
creates an empty task with the given name. You can also use the
task
keyword in your build file:
task myTask task myTask { configure closure } task myType << { task action } task myTask(type: SomeType) task myTask(type: SomeType) { configure closure }
Each task has a name, which can be used to refer to the task within its owning project, and a fully qualified path, which is unique across all tasks in all projects. The path is the concatenation of the owning project's path and the task's name. Path elements are separated using the ":" character.
A Task
is made up of a sequence of Action
objects. When the task is executed, each of the
actions is executed in turn, by calling Action.execute(T)
. You can add actions to a task by calling doFirst(Action)
or doLast(Action)
.
Groovy closures can also be used to provide a task action. When the action is executed, the closure is called with
the task as parameter. You can add action closures to a task by calling doFirst(groovy.lang.Closure)
or
doLast(groovy.lang.Closure)
or using the left-shift <<
operator.
There are 2 special exceptions which a task action can throw to abort execution and continue without failing the
build. A task action can abort execution of the action and continue to the next action of the task by throwing a
StopActionException
. A task action can abort execution of the task and continue to the
next task by throwing a StopExecutionException
. Using these exceptions allows you to
have precondition actions which skip execution of the task, or part of the task, if not true.
A task may have dependencies on other tasks or might be scheduled to always run after another task. Gradle ensures that all task dependencies and ordering rules are honored when executing tasks, so that the task is executed after all of its dependencies and any "must run after" tasks have been executed.
Dependencies to a task are controlled using dependsOn(Object...)
or setDependsOn(Iterable)
,
and mustRunAfter(Object...)
, setMustRunAfter(Iterable)
, shouldRunAfter(Object...)
and
setShouldRunAfter(Iterable)
are used to specify ordering between tasks. You can use objects of any of
the following types to specify dependencies and ordering:
String
, CharSequence
or groovy.lang.GString
task path or name. A relative path is interpreted relative to the task's Project
. This
allows you to refer to tasks in other projects.Task
.Task
as parameter. It may return any of the types listed here. Its
return value is recursively converted to tasks. A null
return value is treated as an empty collection.TaskDependency
object.Buildable
object.Iterable
, Collection
, Map
or array. May contain any of the types listed here. The elements of the
iterable/collection/map/array are recursively converted to tasks.Callable
. The call()
method may return any of the types listed here. Its return value is
recursively converted to tasks. A null
return value is treated as an empty collection.Object
. The object's toString()
method is interpreted as a task path or name. The support for custom Objects
has been deprecated and will be removed in the next version of Gradle.A Task
has 4 'scopes' for properties. You can access these properties by name from the build file or by
calling the property(String)
method. You can change the value of these properties by calling the setProperty(String, Object)
method.
Task
object itself. This includes any property getters and setters declared by the Task
implementation class. The properties of this scope are readable or writable based on the presence of the
corresponding getter and setter methods.Convention
object. The properties of this scope may be readable or writable, depending on the convention objects.A Plugin
may add methods to a Task
using its Convention
object.
