[1.9.4] [UNSOLVED] Build Number

[Bektor]

Hi,

 

I'm wondering if there is a way to automatically increase the build number of my mod and reset it

and if so, what do I need to do to do this.

 

Thx in advance.

Bektor

 

EDIT: What I've currently got:

task incrementBuildNumber() {
dependsOn "reobf"
    doLast {
        config.primeval_build = (config.primeval_build.toString().toInteger()) + 1

        configFile.withWriter {
            config.toProperties().store(it, "")
        }
    }
}

jar {
appendix = 'universal'
}

task releaseJars(type: Copy) {
    from incrementBuildNumber
    from jar // not sure if this is correct 
}

 

This is the line in the build.properties:

primeval_build=1

 

So why is it not working?

Do you mean how to internally use a different version number in code? Or a different compiled name?

[shadowfacts]

You could have Gradle increment your version and save it to a file every time you run the

build

task, however, you'd probably be better off just incrementing it manually.

[Bektor]

So if I'm doing this with gradle, how can I do this? What do I need to add for this?

Currently I've got a small file which saves all the values, like the forge version, minecraft version, mod build number etc., so gradle just puts them into the right place from this file out.

And I'm using the latest build of Forge for 1.9.4.

Uh... change the mod build number?

I'm not just going to give you code, but what you'll need to do is:

 

• Create a custom task that:
  
• Reads the

  gradle.properties

  file
  

• Increments the version number found the in the file and saves it to the properties object and increments the project

  version

  property
  

• Saves the updated properties back to the

gradle.properties[code] file

[*]Create a custom task that:

gradle.properties

version

property

Ok. I've got now the code to read the file and I can also read the variables from the file. (I think this should work: config.primeval_build)
So, how can I increment now the build number of the file, because I think it reads all the data in as a String, but not sure about that.
And when I got this done, how can I write the new build number to the file?

[code]
task incrementBuildNumber() {

Will this automatically called or do I have to tell gradlew to call it manually?

And how can I tell gradlew to increment the build number only when I build the project files into the .jar mod?

It won't get called unless you tell gradle it needs to be called.

 

There's two ways to do this.  I think.

 

#1:

nameOfJarTask.dependsOn('incrementBuildNumber')

 

#2:

task releaseJars(type: Copy) {

    from incrementBuildNumber

    from nameOfJarTask

}

 

You might have to play around with it or do some research on your own.  But I've got lines like that to do some specialized build tasks myself.

Ok, I've got now this done:

task incrementBuildNumber() {
dependsOn "reobf"

 

So now I have to call this task, correct?

 

And you've got there the task releaseJars(type: Copy) {

method. Doesn't this need also to be called?

 

    from incrementBuildNumber
    from nameOfJarTask

Why from nameOfJarTask when I've got the task incrementBuildNumber which is already above the line?

Option 2 is take this:

 

#2:
task releaseJars(type: Copy) {
    from nameOfJarTask //this already exists, do not touch
}

 

make it this:

 

#2:
task releaseJars(type: Copy) {
    from incrementBuildNumber
    from nameOfJarTask
}

Ok, thx.

Is this build.gradle so correct?:

[Draco18s]

nameOfJarTask isn't supposed to be literal.

Jesus, whatever was inside

releaseJars

already was supposed to stay there. "nameOfJarTask" was literally a "foo bar baz."

[Bektor]

Well, there was no releaseJars task before.

 

Even in the up-to-date 1.9.4 buid.gradle file is no releaseJars task.

Ok, look, a task already exists in the build file.  I don't give a shit what it's named.  Add

from incrementBuildNumber

to it.
