How To Embed Coremod With build.gradle on Compile

[nullsector76]

So you have written your first coremod yay. You compile and put it in your libs workspace. Ok now how do I reobfuscate and embed it into the jar automatically rather then manually each time. Currently I have the meta-inf working automatically.

Forge greatly stresses to embed your coremod for 1.12x yet provides no way of simply doing this using the default build.gradle that I can find. Help me???? Currently I only have the met-inf working on compile I need my libs/coremod-deob.jar to become coremod-reob.jar when compiled inside of the jar.

build.gradle

You will notice the build gradle fails I tried some code I found on other forums that's also in there

First can I ask what this coremod does?

Congrats, you're making a stupid coremod. Not only is it a horrible idea, it's been done about 10,000 times before. So stop doing it.

As for how to embed jars in your jar... Gradle has very good documentation on how to copy files into an archive.
