Gradle print ext plugin

This Gradle plugin creates tasks that print selected ext properties.

How To Use

Applying the plugin

Edit build.gradle file to apply the plugin:

plugins {
    id 'com.github.rkotkiewicz.print-ext' version 0.0.1
}

You can also use legacy plugin application

buildscript {
    repositories {
        maven {
            url "https://plugins.gradle.org/m2/"
        }
    }

    dependencies {
        classpath  'com.github.rkotkiewicz:print-ext-plugin:0.0.1'
    }
}

apply plugin: 'com.github.rkotkiewicz.print-ext'

Configuration

Create extra properties in build.gradle:

project.ext {
    extProperty1 = 'foo1'
    extProperty2 = 'foo2'
    extProperty3 = 'foo3'
    extProperty4 = 'foo4'
    extProperty5 = 'foo5'
}

You need also include selected properties in printExt configuration:

printExt {
    include 'extProperty1', 'extProperty2', 'extProperty5'
}

It will create tasks with names: print<ExtPropertyName>. The first letter of property name will be capitalized. For the above configuration we will get three tasks: printExtProperty1, printExtProperty2, printExtProperty5

Usage

You can now run a print property task:

./gradlew -q printExtProperty2

It will print 'foo2'.
