 Description   

Gradle reference mentions that it's possible to configure custom gradle home to use via system env variable. However, gradle tooling api doesn't follow that rule all the time. Consider the following simple example:

package org.jetbrains.plugins.gradle;

import org.gradle.tooling.*;
import org.gradle.tooling.internal.consumer.DefaultGradleConnector;
import org.gradle.tooling.model.idea.*;

import java.io.File;
import java.util.Date;
import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit;

public class GradleStartClass {

  private static final String GRADLE_TO_USE       = "/home/denis/dev/gradle/gradle-1.4-rc-2";
  private static final String GRADLE_PROJECT_PATH = "/home/denis/dev/gradle/gradle-1.3/samples/java/quickstart";

  public static void main(String[] args) throws InterruptedException {
    System.out.println("GRADLE_USER_HOME=" + System.getenv("GRADLE_USER_HOME"));
    //showDependencies(true);
    showDependencies(false);
  }


  private static void showDependencies(boolean useWrapper) {
    GradleConnector connector = GradleConnector.newConnector();
    if (!useWrapper) {
      connector.useInstallation(new File(GRADLE_TO_USE));
    }
    ((DefaultGradleConnector)connector).daemonMaxIdleTime(10000, TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS);
    connector.forProjectDirectory(new File(GRADLE_PROJECT_PATH));
    ProjectConnection connection = connector.connect();
    ModelBuilder<? extends IdeaProject> modelBuilder = connection.model(IdeaProject.class);
    System.out.println(new Date() + ": Starting project resolve");
    IdeaProject project = modelBuilder.get();
    System.out.println(new Date() + ": Project resolve is complete");
    System.out.println("-----------------> Listing modules <----------------");
    for (IdeaModule module : project.getModules()) {
      System.out.printf("    -----------------> Module %s <----------------%n", module.getName());
      for (IdeaDependency dependency : module.getDependencies()) {
        System.out.printf("Dependency: %s, scope: %s%n", dependency, dependency.getScope());
      }
    }
    System.out.println("-----------------> Finishing <----------------");
  }
}

The main idea is to do the following:

  1. Print out current GRADLE_USER_HOME env variable value (ensure that it's set);
  2. Build project structure via tooling api;

The output is below:

The most important information here is that

  1. GRADLE_USER_HOME is defined;
  2. Gradle tooling api uses it for storing downloaded artifacts;

The problem is that ~/.gradle dir is also created during that. It has the following content:

denis@unit-311:~/.gradle$ find .
.
./daemon
./daemon/1.4-rc-2
./daemon/1.4-rc-2/daemon-22433.out.log
./daemon/1.4-rc-2/registry.bin
./daemon/1.4-rc-2/registry.bin.lock

It looks like a tooling api bug as it should modify only contents of the directory specified at $GRADLE_USER_HOME

As announced on the Gradle blog we are planning to completely migrate issues from JIRA to GitHub.

We intend to prioritize issues that are actionable and impactful while working more closely with the community. Many of our JIRA issues are inactionable or irrelevant. We would like to request your help to ensure we can appropriately prioritize JIRA issues you’ve contributed to.

Please confirm that you still advocate for your JIRA issue before December 10th, 2016 by:

  • Checking that your issues contain requisite context, impact, behaviors, and examples as described in our published guidelines.
  • Leave a comment on the JIRA issue or open a new GitHub issue confirming that the above is complete.

We look forward to collaborating with you more closely on GitHub. Thank you for your contribution to Gradle!
