VSCode Tasks Gradle Plugin

This plugin scans your gradle project and configures VS Code to be able
to run all gradle tasks from within VS Code. It will create or update
the tasks.json file in the .vscode folder for a workspace.

Applying the plugin

The plugin available through the Gradle plugin exchange and the configuration
for your project is done in the build.gradle file.

plugins {
    id "ru.akman.vscode-tasks" version "0.4.0"
}

Tasks

There is one task available in your project:

• vscodeTasks - create or update VS Code configuration

./gradlew vscodeTasks

Configuration

You can edit the almost all of the task’s properties, but following properties
are not configurable and set by the plugin itself:

• group
• label
• detail

Below are shown all configurable task’s properties with their default values.
They apply to each task added to the VS Code configuration.

The VS Code customs tasks documentation is available here

vscodeTasks {
    prefix = ''
    type = 'shell'
    command = './gradlew'
    args = []
    options = [
        'cwd': '',
        'env': [:],
        'shell': [:]
    ]
    problemMatcher = []
    windows = [:]
    linux = [:]
    osx = [:]
    runOptions = [
        'reevaluateOnRerun': true,
        'runOn': 'default'
    ]
    promptOnClose = true
    isBackground = true
    presentation = [
        'group': 'gradle',
        'echo': true,
        'reveal': 'always',
        'revealProblems': 'never',
        'focus': true,
        'panel': 'shared',
        'showReuseMessage': true,
        'clear': false
    ]
    dependsOn = []
    dependsOrder = 'parallel'
}

Note that unlike json syntax, groovy syntax is used here. Therefore,
do not forget to replace the curly braces (from json) with square brackets in
the maps definitions.

• prefix - the prefix used for a task name,
  if prefix is empty the group name will be used as prefix
