Repository of common build elements for public ECS projects

Published projects

build.gradle

Your project's build.gradle file should look like this:

description 'Description of this project'
version '1.0.0'// omit the version to enable automated semantic versioning based on tags

// if your github project is different than your origin project
ext.githubProjectName = 'my-project-java'

// if your license is different than the default (BSD 3-Clause)
ext.licenseName = 'My License Name'
ext.licenseUrl = 'http://opensource.org/licenses/My-License'

buildscript {
    // set the version of the common build script you will use
    ext.commonBuildVersion = '1.1'
    ext.commonBuildDir = "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/emcvipr/ecs-common-build/v$commonBuildVersion"
    apply from: "$commonBuildDir/ecs-publish.buildscript.gradle", to: buildscript
}

apply from: "$commonBuildDir/ecs-publish.gradle"

// replace below with your project's actual dependencies
dependencies {
    compile 'com.emc.ecs:smart-client:1.0.0',
            'com.emc.vipr:vipr-object-transformations:2.0.3',
            'org.jdom:jdom2:2.0.5'
    testCompile 'junit:junit:4.11'
}

$HOME/.gradle/gradle.properties

You should also have a user-level gradle.properties file that contains the following properties:

# path to Java 6 jre/lib (if installed)
java6Lib=

# set these if you plan on publishing. note: you will be prompted for passwords if necessary
sonatypeUsername=
githubUsername=
gitUsername=
# Located on the signing server. KeyId can be found using gpg --list-keys
signingKeyId=
signingSecretKeyRingFile=

CLI tools as sub-projects (1.4+)

You can now have sub-projects that represent companion tools for the main project. Make sure your main project uses common-build v1.4 or later and applies ecs-publish.gradle to allprojects:

allprojects {
    apply from: "$commonBuildDir/ecs-publish.gradle"
}

Then, add your sub-project to settings.gradle:

include 'widget-cli'

and create a build.gradle file in your sub-project directory like so:

description 'Description of this project'

// replace with your actual main class
ext.mainClass = 'com.emc.your.main.ClassName'

buildscript {
    apply from: "$commonBuildDir/ecs-tool.buildscript.gradle", to: buildscript
}

apply from: "$commonBuildDir/ecs-tool.subproject.gradle"

// replace below with your project's actual dependencies
dependencies {
    compile 'commons-cli:commons-cli:1.3.1'
    testCompile group: 'junit', name: 'junit', version: '4.11'
}

An executable jar will be created for the sub-project and bundled in the root project's distribution under the tools/ directory.
