JBang Gradle Plugin

---

The JBang Gradle plugin allows JBang scripts to be executed during a Gradle build.

The plugin attempts to use an existing JBang installation. If no JBang installation is found, the plugin will install JBang by downloading and caching the latest version binaries (in your local Gradle cache directory) for subsequent runs.

Usage

This plugin adds a new task of type dev.jbang.gradle.tasks.JBangTask named jbang that accepts the following properties

Property	Type	Option	Default	Required
script	String	jbang-script		✅
jbangArgs	List<String>	jbang-jbang-args	[ ]	❌
args	List<String>	jbang-args	[ ]	❌
trusts	List<String>	jbang-trusts	[ ]	❌
version	String	jbang-version	latest	❌
installDir	Directory		$gradleUserHomeDir/caches/jbang	❌

script	The script to be executed by JBang.
args	The arguments to be used in the JBang script (if any)
trusts	If the script resides in a remote location, this parameter specifies what URLs should be trusted. See URLs from Trusted Sources for more information
version	If your environment lacks the JBang binaries in the PATH, you can specify the JBang version to be installed. The default value is set to latest, in which case the plugin will always check if the latest jbang release is installed and proceed to download it if that’s not the case.

Example:

$ gradle jbang --jbang-script hello.jsh --jbang-args="Hello world"
