Method details

Task dependsOn(Object... paths)

Adds the given dependencies to this task. See here for a description of the types of objects which can be used as task dependencies.

Adds the given closure to the beginning of this task's action list. The closure is passed this task as a parameter when executed.

Task doFirst(String actionName, Action<? super Task> action)

Adds the given Action to the beginning of this task's action list.

Task doFirst(Action<? super Task> action)

Adds the given Action to the beginning of this task's action list.

Task doLast(Closure action)

Adds the given closure to the end of this task's action list. The closure is passed this task as a parameter when executed.

Task doLast(String actionName, Action<? super Task> action)

Adds the given Action to the end of this task's action list.

Task doLast(Action<? super Task> action)

Adds the given Action to the end of this task's action list.

void doNotTrackState(String reasonNotToTrackState)

Do not track the state of the task.

Instructs Gradle to treat the task as untracked.

Task finalizedBy(Object... paths)

Adds the given finalizer tasks for this task.

task taskY {
    finalizedBy "taskX"
}

See here for a description of the types of objects which can be used to specify a finalizer task.

boolean hasProperty(String propertyName)

Determines if this task has the given property. See here for details of the properties which are available for a task.

void includes(Object includeRoots)

Add directories where the compiler should search for header files.

Task mustRunAfter(Object... paths)

Specifies that this task must run after all of the supplied tasks.

task taskY {
    mustRunAfter "taskX"
}

For each supplied task, this action adds a task 'ordering', and does not specify a 'dependency' between the tasks. As such, it is still possible to execute 'taskY' without first executing the 'taskX' in the example.

See here for a description of the types of objects which can be used to specify an ordering relationship.

void onlyIf(Closure<?> onlyIfClosure)

Execute the task only if the given closure returns true. The closure will be evaluated at task execution time, not during configuration. The closure will be passed a single parameter, this task. If the closure returns false, the task will be skipped.

You may add multiple such predicates. The task is skipped if any of the predicates return false.

Typical usage:myTask.onlyIf { isProductionEnvironment() }

void onlyIf(String onlyIfReason, Spec<? super Task> onlyIfSpec)

Note: This method is incubating and may change in a future version of Gradle.

Execute the task only if the given spec is satisfied. The spec will be evaluated at task execution time, not during configuration. If the Spec is not satisfied, the task will be skipped.

You may add multiple such predicates. The task is skipped if any of the predicates return false.

Typical usage (from Java):

myTask.onlyIf("run only in production environment", new Spec<Task>() {
   boolean isSatisfiedBy(Task task) {
      return isProductionEnvironment();
   }
});

void onlyIf(Spec<? super Task> onlyIfSpec)

Execute the task only if the given spec is satisfied. The spec will be evaluated at task execution time, not during configuration. If the Spec is not satisfied, the task will be skipped.

You may add multiple such predicates. The task is skipped if any of the predicates return false.

Typical usage (from Java):

myTask.onlyIf(new Spec<Task>() {
   boolean isSatisfiedBy(Task task) {
      return isProductionEnvironment();
   }
});

Object property(String propertyName)

Returns the value of the given property of this task. This method locates a property as follows:

  1. If this task object has a property with the given name, return the value of the property.
  2. If this task has an extension with the given name, return the extension.
  3. If this task's convention object has a property with the given name, return the value of the property.
  4. If this task has an extra property with the given name, return the value of the property.
  5. If not found, throw MissingPropertyException

void setProperty(String name, Object value)

Sets a property of this task. This method searches for a property with the given name in the following locations, and sets the property on the first location where it finds the property.

  1. The task object itself. For example, the enabled project property.
  2. The task's convention object.
  3. The task's extra properties.

If the property is not found, a MissingPropertyException is thrown.

TaskDependency shouldRunAfter(Object... paths)

Specifies that this task should run after all of the supplied tasks.

task taskY {
    shouldRunAfter "taskX"
}

For each supplied task, this action adds a task 'ordering', and does not specify a 'dependency' between the tasks. As such, it is still possible to execute 'taskY' without first executing the 'taskX' in the example.

See here for a description of the types of objects which can be used to specify an ordering relationship.

void source(Object sourceFiles)

Adds a set of source files to be compiled. The provided sourceFiles object is evaluated as per Project.files(java.lang.Object[]).

void usesService(Provider<? extends BuildService<?>> service)

Registers a BuildService that is used by this task so BuildServiceRegistration.getMaxParallelUsages() can be honored.

This is not necessary for task properties declared as ServiceReferences.
