INTRODUCTION



The project is in Kotlin and builds using Gradle. I'm trying to generate a basic data class with some build info, let's say for now that I need it [re]generated every time before running.



Here's the Gradle task I have now:



def generatedDir = "$buildDir/generated"

// noinspection GroovyAssignabilityCheck
task generateBuildInfo
inputs.property "version", rootProject.version.toString()
inputs.property "name", rootProject.name.toString()

outputs.dir generatedDir
outputs.upToDateWhen false

doFirst
def buildInfoFile = file("$generatedDir/BuildInfo.kt")
buildInfoFile.parentFile.mkdirs()
buildInfoFile.text = """
internal data class BuildInfo(
val version: String = "$project.version.toString() ?: "unspecified"",
val name: String = "$project.name.toString() ?: "unspecified""
)
""".replace(" ", "").trim()




To be able to resolve this from IntelliJ IDEA, I added my new folder to project sources, and obviously wired up the dependencies, like so:



sourceSets.main.kotlin.srcDirs += generatedDir

project.afterEvaluate
compileJava.dependsOn generateBuildInfo
compileKotlin.dependsOn generateBuildInfo



This is all done in a separate file (to avoid polluting my main scripts). Due to this organization, after applying plugins, I just include the generator in my main script, like this:



apply from: "gradle/scripts/build-info-generator.gradle"


THE PROBLEM



It looks like the generator code is executed only once, after running assemble when I first ran clean on this module. This is not what I want, because when I change some of the project properties (like version), the source does not get updated... as if compileJava/compileKotlin and my custom task are not executed.



They do not appear in build logs as executed.



Is there any way I can run this task every time I want to run my module's launcher? Sure, I can do some smart file comparison to see if generation is needed, but for now I just want it done each time. Am I missing something?

  • If I understand, correctly, you expect IntelliJ to run your gradle tasks when it internally builds and runs the project? That won't happen unless you explicitly configure it in IntelliJ, or if you configure IntelliJ to delegate the build/run actions to gradle. Otherwise, Gradle has its own build and run system. It just loads the dependencies and some other properties from the Gradle build when loading the project.

  • As I just said, no. IDEA has its own build system, indepenant from Gradle. You can configure it to run a Gradle task before its own build task. You can also configure it to delegate all the build/run tasks to Gradle. But that's not the default.

    – JB Nizet
    Mar 23 at 14:39












  • @JBNizet - Actually I just realized a very interesting thing... if I run the "Build" command from IntelliJ, it does not run my task at all (not even after clean). Since my Run configuration is currently set up to run this IntelliJ's Build task before running (default setup), my task is thus not executed.
