Use ${} in mods.toml

DoctorC · January 19, 2021

I read something somewhere that suggested using processResources to replace things in mods.toml.

Having little experience with ForgeGradle, I'm not sure what the problem is.

This is my current processResources (build.gradle):

// Process Resources on build
processResources {
    inputs.property 'mod_version', version
    inputs.property 'mod_id', archivesBaseName

    from (sourceSets.main.resources.srcDirs) {
        include 'META-INF/mods.toml'

        expand 'mod_version': version
        expand 'mod_id': archivesBaseName
        expand 'mod_name': "${mod_name}"
        expand 'mod_description': "${mod_description}"

        expand 'loader_version': "${loader_version}"
    }

    from (sourceSets.main.resources.srcDirs) {
        exclude 'META-INF/mods.toml'
    }
}

I've defined ${mod_name}, ${mod_description}, etc. etc. already, using gradle.properties.

I am getting this error on running processResources. I've also tried runClient but the same thing happens:

Execution failed for task ':processResources'.
> Could not copy file 'Mod Folder\src\main\resources\META-INF\mods.toml' to 'Mod Folder\build\resources\main\META-INF\mods.toml'.

* Try:
Run with --info or --debug option to get more log output. Run with --scan to get full insights.

* Exception is:

My question is: Why? Just put them in the mods.toml directly.

Because it's easier to define everything in gradle.properties, and not have to think about the other files.

Uh, not really.

This will make it completely not work in the development environment, too.

Why not?

Because in the development environment the full gradle build is not used.

Ah, so replacing anything inside the mods.toml would not be useful at all?

Use ${} in mods.toml
