| API Documentation: | Settings |
|---|
Declares the configuration required to instantiate and configure the hierarchy of Project instances which are to participate in a build.
There is a one-to-one correspondence between a Settings instance and a settings.gradleSettings instance and executes the settings file against it.
One of the purposes of the Settings object is to allow you to declare the projects which are to be
included in the build. You add projects to the build using the Settings.include() method. There is always a
root project included in a build. It is added automatically when the Settings object is created. The
root project's name defaults to the name of the directory containing the settings file. The root project's project
directory defaults to the directory containing the settings file.
When a project is included in the build, a ProjectDescriptor is created. You can use this descriptor to
change the default values for several properties of the project.
In addition to the properties of this interface, the Settings object makes some additional read-only
properties available to the settings script. This includes properties from the following sources:
- Defined in the
gradle.propertiesfile located in the settings directory of the build. - Defined the
gradle.propertiesfile located in the user's.gradledirectory. - Provided on the command-line using the -P option.
| Property | Description |
gradle | The |
rootDir | The root directory of the build. The root directory is the project directory of the root project. |
rootProject | The root project of the build. |
settings | Returns this settings object. |
settingsDir | The settings directory of the build. The settings directory is the directory containing the settings file. |
startParameter | The set of parameters used to invoke this instance of Gradle. |
| Method | Description |
findProject(projectDir) | Returns the project with the given project directory. |
findProject(path) | Returns the project with the given path. |
include(projectPaths) | Adds the given projects to the build. Each path in the supplied list is treated as the path of a project to add to the build. Note that these path are not file paths, but instead specify the location of the new project in the project heirarchy. As such, the supplied paths must use the ':' character as separator. |
includeFlat(projectNames) | Adds the given projects to the build. Each name in the supplied list is treated as the name of a project to add to the build. |
project(projectDir) | Returns the project with the given project directory. |
project(path) | Returns the project with the given path. |
File rootDir (read-only)
The root directory of the build. The root directory is the project directory of the root project.
ProjectDescriptor rootProject (read-only)
The root project of the build.
Settings settings (read-only)
Returns this settings object.
File settingsDir (read-only)
The settings directory of the build. The settings directory is the directory containing the settings file.
StartParameter startParameter (read-only)
The set of parameters used to invoke this instance of Gradle.
ProjectDescriptor findProject(File projectDir)
Returns the project with the given project directory.
ProjectDescriptor findProject(String path)
Returns the project with the given path.
void include(String[]
String[]Adds the given projects to the build. Each path in the supplied list is treated as the path of a project to add to the build. Note that these path are not file paths, but instead specify the location of the new project in the project heirarchy. As such, the supplied paths must use the ':' character as separator.
The last element of the supplied path is used as the project name. The supplied path is converted to a project directory relative to the root project directory.
As an example, the path a:b adds a project with path :a:b, name b and project
directory $rootDir/a/b.
void includeFlat(String[]
String[]Adds the given projects to the build. Each name in the supplied list is treated as the name of a project to add to the build.
The supplied name is converted to a project directory relative to the parent directory of the root project directory.
As an example, the name a add a project with path :a, name a and project directory
$rootDir/../a.
ProjectDescriptor project(File projectDir)
Returns the project with the given project directory.
ProjectDescriptor project(String path)
Returns the project with the given path.
