Question

Amending my previous question rather what is the best method to get all Java files within a project s sourceset I m trying to follow the Maven Publish plugin documentation but having some difficulties since I m using an older verison of gradle and the examples are in groovy

Shan · Answer

```task sourcesJar type Jar from sourceSets main allJava classifier = sources task javadocJar type Jar from javadoc classifier = javadoc ```

Shan · Answer

This is what the documentation says to do for Groovy

Take a look at this <https docs gradle org current userguide userguide single html publishing maven complete example>

Czar · Answer

backporting it to 4 10 3 we get this ``` tasks register lt Jar gt sourcesJar from sourceSets main allJava classifier = sources tasks register lt Jar gt javadocJar from tasks javadoc classifier = javadoc ``` Note I omitted the `project core ` here to be able to quickly test if it works on my machine it does

Shan · Answer

Thank you for the example it does work I just realise now that this is not actually what I need I m pretty sure since my project uses Kotlin and not Java files weary All of my Jars are under the `lib` folder generated by the `jar` task

Shan · Answer

Thank you for the example This does work when I run without a project specified but gives me this error `Extension with name sourceSets does not exist Currently registered extension names ext `

Shan · Answer

I m not even sure I need to do it this way since my project is all Kotlin files and the Jars are stored in `build libs` folder weary

Czar · Answer

Here you go ``` tasks other stuff you probably have in tasks register lt Jar gt sourcesJar from kotlin sourceSets main kotlin classifier = sources register lt Jar gt javadocJar from tasks dokka classifier = javadoc named lt DokkaTask gt dokka outputFormat = javadoc outputDirectory = $buildDir javadoc ```

Czar · Answer

you will of course need dokka plugin ``` plugins other plugins id org jetbrains dokka version 0 9 17 ```

Shan · Answer

I will check this out as soon as my wifi returns so I can import Dokka Thanks so much I am woefully out of my depth with this buildscript

Czar · Answer

Yup I was the same when I started tinkering but at some point it just clicks and you start to understand logic behind it then it s quite intuitive

Czar · Answer

oh by the way I m assuming your script is gradle kts so my code is in kotlin dsl not groovy slightly smiling face

Shan · Answer

Yes it is Another issue with me looking at the Gradle docs for 4 10 2 all in Groovy disappointed

Czar · Answer

yeah 5 2 1 is a huge improvement both in terms of the API and documentation

Shan · Answer

< Czar> the above code does work nicely Thanks again
