Parameterise gradle release

[andreas...@codecentric.de]

Hi,

I'm wondering if it's possible to parameterise a gradle release job.

More concrete:

I want to set the 

-releaserepo

parameter in cnf/ext/repositories.bnd.

I imagine a usage like this:

gradle com.bundle.name:relase -Preleaserepo=nexus

or

gradle com.bundle.name:relase -Preleaserepo=local

Looking forward to your answers :)

Yes it is possible. In the repositorties.bnd file you could do:

    -releaserepo: $(def;releaserepo;local}

So if the releaserepo property is unset, local is used.

On the command line:

    ./gradlew -Dreleaserepo=nexus :com.bundle.name:release

Note you need to use -D to set a system property. -P are gradle properties which are not visible in bnd.

Thank you for your answer. That helps.

Would you mind elaborating what happens here? Is that bnd, gradle or java functionality?

Can I read about this in some documentation? Why does one need to write def before the first semicolon?

This is bnd functionality.

See http://bnd.bndtools.org/chapters/850-macros.html and http://bnd.bndtools.org/macros/def.html

Kind regards,
