[GRADLE-2015] Tooling API idea / idea plugin does not understand java-base plugin as it does the java plugin Created: 26/Dec/11  Updated: 10/Feb/17  Resolved: 10/Feb/17

 Description   

Trying to get information about project structure of $GRADLE_HOME/samples/java/base (uses custom source roots) with the following program:

package org.jetbrains.plugins.gradle;

import org.gradle.tooling.GradleConnector;
import org.gradle.tooling.ModelBuilder;
import org.gradle.tooling.ProjectConnection;
import org.gradle.tooling.model.idea.*;

import java.io.File;

public class GradleStartClass {

  private static final String GRADLE_TO_USE = "/home/denis/dev/gradle/gradle-1.0-milestone-7-20111219065105+0100";
  private static final String GRADLE_PROJECT_PATH = "/home/denis/dev/gradle/gradle-1.0-milestone-6/samples/java/base";

  public static void main(String[] args) {
    showDependencies();
  }

  private static void showDependencies() {
    GradleConnector connector = GradleConnector.newConnector();
    connector.useInstallation(new File(GRADLE_TO_USE));
    connector.forProjectDirectory(new File(GRADLE_PROJECT_PATH));
    ProjectConnection connection = connector.connect();
    ModelBuilder<? extends IdeaProject> modelBuilder = connection.model(IdeaProject.class);
    IdeaProject project = modelBuilder.get();
    System.out.println("-----------------> Listing modules <----------------");
    for (IdeaModule module : project.getModules()) {
      System.out.printf("    -----------------> Module %s <----------------%n", module.getName());
      for (IdeaContentRoot contentRoot : module.getContentRoots()) {
        System.out.println("      Content root " + contentRoot.getRootDirectory());
        System.out.println("      Source directories:");
        for (IdeaSourceDirectory directory : contentRoot.getSourceDirectories()) {
          System.out.println("        " + directory.getDirectory());
        }
      }
    }
    System.out.println("-----------------> Finishing <----------------");
  }
}

Output:

-----------------> Listing modules <----------------
    -----------------> Module test <----------------
      Content root /home/denis/dev/gradle/gradle-1.0-milestone-6/samples/java/base/test
      Source directories:
    -----------------> Module base <----------------
      Content root /home/denis/dev/gradle/gradle-1.0-milestone-6/samples/java/base
      Source directories:
    -----------------> Module prod <----------------
      Content root /home/denis/dev/gradle/gradle-1.0-milestone-6/samples/java/base/prod
      Source directories:
-----------------> Finishing <----------------

The problem is that the Tooling API doesn't expose custom source roots here.

It's because they don't apply the 'java' plugin.

I'm not sure if it's a bug... or at least nobody every complained that IDE plugins don't work with 'java-base' plugins. E.g. IDE plugins 'work' with the 'java-base' plugin but they won't understand the 'meaning' of the compile/runtime configurations, and thus they will not create a proper java project in the IDE.

What features are provided by 'java-base'? I've checked gradle documentation page but it has just a couple references to the 'java-base' without any details.

I agree it's not documented well enough. I don't think it is valuable to use instead of the java plugin.
