Dependencies between Gradle tasks

[Dirk Mahler]

Hi,

we're currently integration jQA into a customer project which uses
Gradle as build system and are therefore using the jQA Gradle Plugin
provided by Kontext-E
(https://github.com/kontext-e/jqassistant-gradle-plugin) Works really
nice - thanks for the great work!

In that context a usability question came up that I would like to
discuss here (before raising a feature request):

Would it make sense to add default dependencies between the provided
tasks such that running "report" triggers "analyze" and "scan" before? 

This would be quite convenient but from working with Maven I know that
being able to run analyze without scan is helpful for
developing/verifying rules as well. Maybe there could be separate
tasks?

Any opinions here?

Cheers

Dirk

Hi Dirk,

I am not a frequent user of the Gradle plugin (though I appreciate to have this opportunity to integrate jQA with Gradle as well).

My personal daily usage very often separate the scan/analyse/report steps. I even run the latter frequently by resetting their results manually partly or completely back to the baseline of the scan step. Re-running (e.g., for testing my concepts) then allows for a way faster roundtrip. Therefore, I would not like to have an dependency which automatically triggers the precondition steps. In Gradle in particular, it is possible to specify your own tasks which would run the full cycle if desired.

This is just my opinion.

 

Regards

  Gerd

Hi Gerd,

thanks for the feedback, it makes sense to me to keep things separate (and keeps them coherent with the Maven plugin and CLI).

Cheers from vacations in Istria
