Add resources and config files to your JAR using Gradle
build.gradle, embedded-resource, gradle, jar
Solution
Thanks guys, I was migrating an existing project to Gradle and didn't like the idea of changing the project structure that much.
I have figured it out, thought this information could be useful to beginners.
Here is a sample task from my 'build.gradle':
version = '1.0.0'
jar {
baseName = 'analytics'
from('src/main/java') {
include 'config/**/*.xml'
}
manifest {
attributes 'Implementation-Title': 'Analytics Library', 'Implementation-Version': version
}
}
Problem
How do I add config files or any other resources into my jar using gradle? My project structure: src/main/java/com/perseus/.. --- Java packages (source files) src/main/java/config/*.xml --- Spring config files Expected jar structure: com/perseus/.. --- Java packages (class files) config/*.xml --- Spring config files
