GradleBuildProperties

A gradle plugin to allow a build be defined in a properties file:

group=net.praqma
version=1.0.5-SNAPSHOT
artifact=demo-project-${osFamily}
buildWorkingDir=.
buildCmd=${osFamily == 'win32' ? 'build.bat' : './build.sh'}
dependencies=net.praqma:demo-project-${osFamily}:1.0.9-SNAPSHOT

In the properties file you can describe:

• The artifact name
• The version
• The group for repository
• The build command to run (e.g. make all)
• The build directory to run from
• The dependencies that must be resolved

Key features:

• Automatic pre-build generation of a version.h and build.h to use in the build process
• Creation of a buildInfo.properties:

BUILD_TIMESTAMP=Wed Nov 04 15:05:20 CET 2015
BUILD_NUMBER=0
