JavaPluginExtension

Returns a file pointing to the root directory supposed to be used for all docs.

The source compatibility used for compiling Java sources.

The source sets container.

The target compatibility used for compiling Java sources.

Returns a file pointing to the root directory to be used for reports.

Returns a file pointing to the root directory of the test results.

Gets the project wide toolchain requirements that will be used for tasks requiring a tool from the toolchain (e.g. JavaCompile).

Configuring a toolchain cannot be used together with sourceCompatibility or targetCompatibility on this extension. Both values will be sourced from the toolchain.

If this method is called, Gradle will not automatically try to fetch dependencies which have a JVM version compatible with the target compatibility of this module.

This should be used whenever the default behavior is not applicable, in particular when for some reason it's not possible to split a module and that this module only has some classes which require dependencies on higher versions.

Creates a new instance of a Manifest.

Creates and configures a new instance of a Manifest. The given closure configures the new manifest instance before it is returned.

Creates and configures a new instance of a Manifest.

Registers a feature.

The new feature will have a default capability corresponding to the "group", "name" + feature name and version of this project. For example, if the group of the component is "org", that the project name is "lib" the version is "1.0" and the feature name is "myFeature", then a capability named "org:lib-my-feature:1.0" is automatically added.

In order to consume this feature in another module add a dependency like the following:

dependencies {
    implementation(project(":lib")) {
        capabilities {
            requireCapability("org:lib-my-feature:1.0")
        }
    }
}

The FeatureSpec.capability(java.lang.String, java.lang.String, java.lang.String) method can be used to refine the capabilities of this feature.

Configures the project wide toolchain requirements for tasks that require a tool from the toolchain (e.g. JavaCompile).

Configuring a toolchain cannot be used together with sourceCompatibility or targetCompatibility on this extension. Both values will be sourced from the toolchain.

Adds a task javadocJar that will package the output of the javadoc task in a JAR with classifier javadoc.

The produced artifact is registered as a documentation variant on the java component and added as a dependency on the assemble task. This means that if maven-publish or ivy-publish is also applied, the javadoc JAR will be published.

If the project already has a task named javadocJar then no task is created.

The publishing of the Javadoc variant can also be disabled using ConfigurationVariantDetails.skip() through AdhocComponentWithVariants.withVariantsFromConfiguration(org.gradle.api.artifacts.Configuration, org.gradle.api.Action), if it should only be built locally by calling or wiring the ':javadocJar' task.

Adds a task sourcesJar that will package the Java sources of the main SourceSet in a JAR with classifier sources.

The produced artifact is registered as a documentation variant on the java component and added as a dependency on the assemble task. This means that if maven-publish or ivy-publish is also applied, the sources JAR will be published.

If the project already has a task named sourcesJar then no task is created.

The publishing of the sources variant can be disabled using ConfigurationVariantDetails.skip() through AdhocComponentWithVariants.withVariantsFromConfiguration(org.gradle.api.artifacts.Configuration, org.gradle.api.Action), if it should only be built locally by calling or wiring the ':sourcesJar' task.

Configures the source sets of this project.

The given closure is executed to configure the SourceSetContainer. The SourceSetContainer is passed to the closure as its delegate.

See the example below how SourceSet 'main' is accessed and how the SourceDirectorySet 'java' is configured to exclude some package from compilation.

plugins {
    id 'java'
}

sourceSets {
  main {
    java {
      exclude 'some/unwanted/package/**'
    }
  }
}
