Eclipse Oxygen集成的Gradle的使用

今天下载了Oxygen来使用，不知道这个版本对Gradle的支持是不是好一点了，以前的版本虽然可以用Gradle，但是集成度和Marven比还差不少，于是搜索了一下，找到一篇文章讲到了这个内容，看上去是有进步了，先转载一下。(http://www.vogella.com/tutorials/EclipseGradle/article.html)

Using the Gradle build system in the Eclipse IDE - Tutorial

Simon Scholz, Lars Vogel (c) 2016 vogella GmbH Version 1.1, 02.02.2017

This article describes how to use the Gradle tooling in Eclipse.

1. Eclipse Gradle support

Gradle Inc., the company behind the Gradle build framework provides Gradle tooling for the Eclipse IDE. This tooling allows to create and import Gradle enabled projects into the Eclipse IDE. It also allows to run Gradle tasks and monitor it execution.

The Eclipse project itself is called Buildship. It is available on Buildship on Github.

2. Install Eclipse Gradle (Buildship) tooling

2.1. Installation via the Marketplace

The easiest way to install the Eclipse Gradle tooling is by using the Marketplace client. Search for Buildship.

2.2. Installation via the Eclipse update manager

You also can use the Help ▸ Install New Software menu path to install the Gradle tooling.

For example, the following URLs are available for the different Eclipse releases:

• Eclipse 4.7 Neon release

• Eclipse 4.8 Oxygen release

The Eclipse Gradle project provides also other updates sites, e.g., for developer builds. See the Buildship download page for details: https://projects.eclipse.org/projects/tools.buildship/downloads

3. Creating Gradle projects

3.1. Creating standard Java projects

The Eclipse Gradle tooling provides a wizard for the creation of Java based Gradle projects. You can reach it via the File ▸ New ▸ Other…​ menu entry.

Click on the Next > button.

Press the Finish button to create the project. This triggers the gradle init --type java-librarycommand and imports the project. Press the Next > button to get a preview of the configuration before the projects created.

The created project looks similar to the following screenshot.

3.2. Creating web applications

The following demonstrates how to create a Spring Boot webapplication with Gradle.

First, create a standard Gradle project called com.vogella.springboot.gradle.minimal.

Change the build.gradle file to the following:

buildscript { ext { springBootVersion = '1.5.3.RELEASE' } repositories { mavenCentral() } dependencies { classpath("org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-gradle-plugin:${springBootVersion}") } }

apply plugin: 'java' apply plugin: 'eclipse' apply plugin: 'org.springframework.boot'

jar { baseName = 'com.vogella.springboot' version = '0.0.1-SNAPSHOT' }

sourceCompatibility = 1.8

repositories { mavenCentral() }

dependencies { compile('org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter') compile('org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-cache') compile('org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-data-rest') compile('org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-hateoas') compile('org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-data-jpa') compile('org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-data-rest')

compile('com.h2database:h2')

	testCompile('org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-test')
	testCompile('org.springframework.restdocs:spring-restdocs-mockmvc')
}

Create the following class.

package com.vogella.springboot.gradle.minimal;

import org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication; import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.SpringBootApplication;

@SpringBootApplication public class Application {

public static void main(String[] args) {
	SpringApplication.run(Application.class, args);
}

}

Select this class, and select via the context mene Run-As ▸ Java Application.

This starts String Boot and the selected application on http://localhost:8080.

To learn more about Spring Boot, see the Spring tutorial.

4. Import an existing Gradle project

You can also import existing Gradle projects into Eclipse. Select the File ▸ Import…​ ▸ Gradle ▸ Gradle Project menu entry for this.

After pressing the Next > button, you need to specify the root directory of your Gradle project.

You may now press Finish button and use the default settings for the import or press the Next button and specify the Gradle runtime settings.

Afterwards the import preview is shown.

5. Updating the Gradle build path and project conversion

5.1. Updating classpath with the latest changes in the build file

Eclipse does not automatically update the classpath, if the build.gradle file is updated. Select Gradle ▸ Refresh Gradle Project from the context menu of the project or from your build.gradle file for that.

5.2. Add Gradle support to existing Eclipse project

To convert a Java project to use Gradle, select Gradle ▸ Add Gradle Nature from the context menu of the project.

Run the 'gradle init' task to create the initial Gradle files, in case you do not have them yet.

6. Using the Gradle Tasks view

The Gradle Tasks view shows the available Gradle tasks for your projects.

Via the context menu you can run a selected Gradle task.

By default, the result is displayed in the Gradle Executions view. It is also displayed in the Console view. This is similar to the output you would get if you run the task via the command line.

The Gradle Executions view can only be used, if you use Gradle 2.4 or higher.

7. Android support

To compile Android projects with the Eclipse IDE, you can use gradle-android-eclipse plug-in from https://plugins.gradle.org/plugin/com.greensopinion.gradle-android-eclipse. Afterwards the Android project should complile in the Eclipse IDE and you can run the Gradle tasks via the Gradle Task view.

8. Contribute to the buildship project

After you installed the Buildship tooling, you can help the project by reporting issues in the Gradle Forum or by contributing code.

8.1. Reporting bugs and feature requests

To help the Buildship project, please report all issues with the tooling via: New Bug report for Buildship You can report bugs or feature requests.

8.2. Get the sourcecode

Since the project is hosted on Github, you can obtain the source by cloning it from the following URL:

git@github.com:eclipse/buildship.git

The project also provides a Oomph setup for the development, which is explained further in the Buildship Docs.
