Hello everyone! Is there a way to set the srcDir for all sub directories of a directory in a generic way?
To give an example, I have the following code:

srcDir("src/routes/a")
srcDir("src/routes/a/asdf")
srcDir("src/routes/b")
srcDir("src/routes/c/xyz/zyx")

Right now, if I add a new directory under route, I have to add it also to my build.gradle.kts in the given snippet.
Is there a way to accomplish that automatically, by adding all sub directories of src/routes ?
Thanks in advance!

I don't know if Gradle has something to do it automatically but you can use FileWalkTree to add every folder inside src/routes

Hey Javier, thanks for answering!
I actually tried that, but it looks like it's not picked up:

File("src/routes/").walkTopDown()
        .filter { it.isDirectory }
        .map { it.canonicalPath }
        .map { it.removePrefix("/.../") }
        .forEach { srcDir(it) }

it is strange, I use it inside settings.gradle.kts to automatically include every module in the project

[Philipp Mayer]

Hm, strange. I wrote a test for that which prints the directories and the resulting strings are all correct. After that I call srcDir on each of them, so no big magic involved there..

Doesn't srcDir("src/routes") include the files in all subdirectories recursively?
