I am trying to add sherter gradle plugin for code style. I want to run this plugin in pre-commit script file.
I added sherter in gradle as,
repositories {
jcenter()
maven { url "https://plugins.gradle.org/m2/" }
}
dependencies {
classpath 'gradle.plugin.com.github.sherter.google-java-format:google-java-format-gradle-plugin:0.6'
}
apply plugin: 'com.github.sherter.google-java-format'
My pre-commit file is in a directory called "scripts". In pre-commit file if I added a line like this
./gradlew verifyGJF
it is failing there. when I go to project root directory and run the same command is working. Why is it so? Whether I have to make any link to the gradle file.
Note: Gradle file is executable and it is running fine from project root directory, but from pre-commit file or even in terminal if I go to the "scripts" folder the verifyGJF is not running.
This is happening because gradlew is actually a script at the root of your project directory (see folder hierarchy below).
Running
./gradlew {task}
from yourpre-commit-script
file instructs it to look forgradlew
in the same directory (here that is/scripts
).If you are trying to invoke
gradlew
from inside a subdirectory, you need to access it with the relative path:../gradlew verifyGJF
.Hope it helps
