Getting help
============
::

  $ gradle --help

Working with subprojects
========================

Getting list of subprojects::

  $ gradle projects

Running build on specific subproject::

  $ gradle :$SUB:clean
  $ gradle -p $SUB clean

If subproject lies in hierarchy::

  $ gradle :$SUB/$SUBSUB:clean
  $ gradle -p $SUB/$SUBSUB clean

Skip building dependent modules, build just current module::

  $ gradle -a build
  $ gradle --no-rebuild build
  $ gradle -a :client:build

Creating multilevel project::

  $ mkdir $PRJROOT
  $ cd $PRJROOT
  $ mkdir lvl1 lvl1/lvl2
  $ touch build.gradle lvl1/build.gradle lvl1/lvl2/build.gradle
  $ { echo include "'lvl1'"; echo include "'lvl1/lvl2'"; } >settings.gradle
  $ gradle projects

``settings.gradle`` can include per line or a list of subprojects::

  include 'sub1', 'sub2', 'sub2'
  include 'lvl1'
  include 'lvl1/lvl2'

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/16976214/gradle-build-only-one-module

Running completely isolated build
=================================

To avoid using global cache and for really clean build use::

  $ gradle --no-daemon --gradle-user-home ./.gradle.local

Managing tasks
==============

List tasks::

  $ gradle tasks

Getting list of supported tasks in each subproject::

  $ gradle tasks --all

Getting help on task::

  $ gradle help --task build
  $ gradle -q help --task build

Similar but to each task::

  $ gradle model

Skip task during build with ``-x`` option::

  $ gradle -x test build
  $ gradle -x :core:build :client:build

Build sources
=============
::

  $ gradle compileJava
  $ gradle compileTestJava

Build with additional options and checks::

  compileJava {
    options.compilerArgs << "-Xlint:unchecked" << "-Xlint:deprecation"
  }
  compileTestJava {
    options.encoding = 'UTF-8'
    options.compilerArgs << "-Xlint:unchecked" << "-Xlint:deprecation"
  }

To apply change recursively to subprojects::

  subprojects {
      tasks.withType(JavaCompile) {
          options.compilerArgs << "-Xlint:unchecked" << "-Xlint:deprecation"
      }
  }

Run main class
==============
::

  $ gradle run

Run tests
=========

To run test::

  $ gradle test

To skip tests in build::

  $ gradle -x test build

Better solution involves passing system property with ``build.gradle``::

  test.onlyIf { ! Boolean.getBoolean('skip.tests') }

To run tests with additional registered checks::

  $ gradle check

.. note::
   ``--rerun-tasks`` option *specifies that any task optimization is ignored*.
   In that way you may rerun tests even if there are no changed files::

     $ gradle test --rerun-tasks

By default ``System.out`` and ``Sysyem.err`` redirected so you wouldn't see
anything about test on console.

Quick way to see test output is::

  $ gradle test -i

Alternatively configure ``test`` task::

  test {
    testLogging {
      events "passed", "skipped", "failed" //, "standardOut", "standardError"

      showExceptions true
      exceptionFormat "full"
      showCauses true
      showStackTraces true

      showStandardStreams = false
    }
  }

Stopping server
===============
::

  $ gradle --stop

List project dependencies
=========================

List of project execution dependencies (it also download dependencies)::

  $ gradle dependencies
  $ gradle dependencies --configuration compile
  $ gradle dependencies -p $SUBPROJ
  $ gradle :$SUBPROJ:dependencies
  $ gradle :$SUBPROJ:dependencies --configuration testCompile

List of project plugin dependencies::

  $ gradle buildEnvironment
  $ gradle buildEnvironment -p $SUBPROJ
  $ gradle :$SUBPROJ:buildEnvironment

Paths to dependencies can be printed via task::

  task printDepPaths {
    doLast { configurations.runtime.each { println it } }
  }

All dependencies can be copied to single directory via task::

  task copyRuntimeLibs(type: Copy) {
    into "lib"
    from configurations.runtime
    // from configurations.testRuntime - configurations.runtime
  }

List project properties
=======================
::

  $ gradle properties
  $ gradle :$SUBPROJ:properties
  $ gradle properties -p $SUBPROJ

Dry tun
=======

``-m`` option allow parsing build scripts without actually executing them::

  $ gradle -m clean compile

Gradle wrapper
==============

With Gradle v2.4 and above::

  $ cd $PROJ
  $ gradle wrapper --gradle-version 3.5

It will add ``gradle/wrapper/gradle-wrapper.jar`` to project root and next call
to ``./gradlew`` download Gradle distribution from ``distributionUrl`` parameter
from ``gradle/wrapper/gradle-wrapper.properties`` file. Dictribution will be
cached in ``~/.gradle/wrapper/dists.gradle/wrapper/dists`` directory so next
calls won't require download.

Alternatively define task::

  task wrapper(type: Wrapper) {
      gradleVersion = '2.0'
  }

For increase security add ``distributionSha256Sum`` parameter to
``gradle-wrapper.properties`` file. Distribution SHA-256 sum can be obtained via
``shasum`` utility.

https://docs.gradle.org/current/userguide/gradle_wrapper.html
  Official docs.

Managing Gradle cache
=====================

Work in offline mode with ``--offline`` option.

Invalidate cache (force re-downloading dependencies) with
``--refresh-dependencies`` option.

Alternatively remove ``~/.m2/repository/`` and ``~/.gradle/caches`` directories.

Gradle cached modules declared as *changing*::

  dependencies {
    compile("com.evil:evil-api:1.0.1-SNAPSHOT") { changing=true }
  }

Default timeout is 24 hours and can be reset/changed via::

  configurations.all {
      resolutionStrategy.cacheChangingModulesFor 0, 'seconds'
  }

Download sources and javadoc of dependencies
============================================

To download sources and javadoc of dependencies to local ``~/.gradle`` cache add
``idea`` plugin to your ``build.gradle``::

  apply plugin: 'idea'
  idea.module.downloadJavadoc = true
  idea.module.downloadSources = true

and invoke plugin::

  $ gradle idea

To wipe out Idea projects file after plug-in run::

  $ gradle cleanIdea
