Overview
This is a recipe to automatically expose a project version information, normally maintained in gradle.properties, to the runtime, by embedding it into the artifact.
The steps are:
1. Write the version information, as declared in gradle.properties, into a VERSION file in build/resources/main/VERSION. We need to do it at the right time, so it will not overwritten by a task like "processResources", but it will be available when tests are run.
task stageVersionInformation {
mustRunAfter 'testClasses'
doFirst {
Files.write(new File(project.buildDir, "resources/main/VERSION").toPath(), version.toString().getBytes());
}
}
test {
dependsOn 'stageVersionInformation'
...
}
