Hi folks, is there a way to access sourceSets in the API? I’m translating the following Groovy bit

task sourcesJar(type: Jar) {
    classifier = 'sources'
    from sourceSets.main.allSource
}

sergei.lebedev:

val sourceSets = java.sourceSets
val SourceSetContainer.main: SourceSet get() = this["main"]
val SourceSetContainer.test: SourceSet get() = this["test"]


val SourceSet.kotlin: SourceDirectorySet get() =
    (this as HasConvention).convention.getPlugin<KotlinSourceSet>().kotlin

Do you think it is possible to make this part of the official API?

i’ve had some wonkiness with the extension method generation before, you could also do

the<JavaPluginConvention>().sourceSets

Thanks! This does indeed work. Could you elaborate a bit on extension generation, is it supposed to be dynamic?

GSK generates extension methods for the actual extensions and convention objects applied by the plugins. so say you have you apply the

java

plugin which creates a convention object named

java

of type

JavaPluginConvention

. then a top level extension method

Project.java(JavaPluginConvention.() -> Unit): Unit

(something like that) is generated. the same is true for

extension

objects https://github.com/gradle/gradle-script-kotlin/releases/tag/v0.8.0 is more thorough and probably a better explanation than i can give

yeah for extension method generation , i always rely on

./gradlew gskGenerateAccessors

. After that you can refer

java

in your script.

I wonder why IntelliJ didn’t do this on import, hmm
