ModelBuilder (Gradle API 1.0)

Type Parameters:: T - The type of model to build

All Superinterfaces:: LongRunningOperation

All Known Implementing Classes:: DefaultModelBuilder

public interface ModelBuilder<T extends Model>
extends LongRunningOperation

A ModelBuilder allows you to fetch a snapshot of the model for a project. Instances of ModelBuilder are not thread-safe.

You use a ModelBuilder as follows:

Create an instance of ModelBuilder by calling ProjectConnection.model(Class).
Configure the builder as appropriate.
Call either get() or get(ResultHandler) to build the model.
Optionally, you can reuse the builder to build the model multiple times.

Example:

 ProjectConnection connection = GradleConnector.newConnector()
    .forProjectDirectory(new File("someFolder"))
    .connect();

 try {
    ModelBuilder<GradleProject> builder = connection.model(GradleProject.class);

    //if you use a different than usual build file name:
    builder.withArguments("--build-file", "theBuild.gradle");

    //configure the standard input in case your build is interactive:
    builder.setStandardInput(new ByteArrayInputStream("consume this!".getBytes()));

    //if you want to listen to the progress events:
    ProgressListener listener = null; // use your implementation
    builder.addProgressListener(listener);

    //get the model:
    GradleProject project = builder.get();

    //query the model for information:
    System.out.println("Available tasks: " + project.getTasks());
 } finally {
    connection.close();
 }

Methods
Modifier and Type	Method and Description
`ModelBuilder<T>`	`addProgressListener(ProgressListener listener)` Adds a progress listener which will receive progress events as the operation runs.
`T`	`get()` Fetch the model, blocking until it is available.
`void`	`get(ResultHandler<? super T> handler)` Starts fetching the build.
`ModelBuilder<T>`	`setJavaHome(File javaHome)` If the target gradle version supports it you can use this setting to specify the java home directory to use for the long running operation.

- Method Detail
  - withArguments
```
ModelBuilder<T> withArguments(String... arguments)
```
    Specify the command line build arguments. Useful mostly for running tasks via BuildLauncher.
    Be aware that not all of the Gradle command line options are supported! Only the build arguments that configure the build execution are supported. They are modelled in the Gradle API via StartParameter. Examples of supported build arguments: '--info', '-u', '-p'. The command line instructions that are actually separate commands (like '-?', '-v') are not supported. Some other instructions like '--daemon' are also not supported - the tooling API always runs with the daemon.
    If you specify unknown or unsupported command line option the UnsupportedBuildArgumentException will be thrown but only at the time when you execute the operation, i.e. BuildLauncher.run() or get().
    For the list of all Gradle command line options please refer to the user guide or take a look at the output of the 'gradle -?' command. Supported arguments are those modelled by StartParameter.
    The arguments can potentially override some other settings you have configured. For example, the project directory or Gradle user home directory that are configured in the GradleConnector. Also, the task names configured by BuildLauncher.forTasks(String...) can be overridden if you happen to specify other tasks via the build arguments.
    See the example in the docs for BuildLauncher
    
    Specified by:
    
    withArguments in interface LongRunningOperation
    
    Parameters:
    arguments - gradle command line arguments
    
    Returns:
    this
  - setStandardOutput
```
ModelBuilder<T> setStandardOutput(OutputStream outputStream)
```
    Sets the OutputStream which should receive standard output logging generated while running the operation. The default is to discard the output.
    
    Specified by:
    
    setStandardOutput in interface LongRunningOperation
    
    Parameters:
    outputStream - The output stream.
    
    Returns:
    this
  - setStandardError
```
ModelBuilder<T> setStandardError(OutputStream outputStream)
```
    Sets the OutputStream which should receive standard error logging generated while running the operation. The default is to discard the output.
    
    Specified by:
    
    setStandardError in interface LongRunningOperation
    
    Parameters:
    outputStream - The output stream.
    
    Returns:
    this
  - setStandardInput
```
ModelBuilder<T> setStandardInput(InputStream inputStream)
```
    If the target gradle version supports it you can use this setting to set the standard InputStream that will be used by builds. Useful when the tooling api drives interactive builds.
    If the target gradle version does not support it the long running operation will fail eagerly with UnsupportedOperationConfigurationException when the operation is started.
    If not configured or null passed the dummy input stream with zero bytes is used to avoid the build hanging problems.
    
    Specified by:
    
    setStandardInput in interface LongRunningOperation
    
    Parameters:
    inputStream - The input stream
    
    Returns:
    this
  - setJavaHome
```
ModelBuilder<T> setJavaHome(File javaHome)
```
    If the target gradle version supports it you can use this setting to specify the java home directory to use for the long running operation.
    If the target gradle version does not support it the long running operation will fail eagerly with UnsupportedOperationConfigurationException when the operation is started.
    BuildEnvironment model contains information such as java or gradle environment. If you want to get hold of this information you can ask tooling API to build this model.
    If not configured or null passed the sensible default will be used.
    
    Specified by:
    
    setJavaHome in interface LongRunningOperation
    
    Parameters:
    javaHome - to use for the gradle process
    
    Returns:
    this
  - setJvmArguments
```
ModelBuilder<T> setJvmArguments(String... jvmArguments)
```
    If the target gradle version supports it you can use this setting to specify the java vm arguments to use for the long running operation.
    If the target gradle version does not support it the long running operation will fail eagerly with UnsupportedOperationConfigurationException when the operation is started.
    BuildEnvironment model contains information such as java or gradle environment. If you want to get hold of this information you can ask tooling API to build this model.
    If not configured, null an empty array passed then the reasonable default will be used.
    
    Specified by:
    
    setJvmArguments in interface LongRunningOperation
    
    Parameters:
    jvmArguments - to use for the gradle process
    
    Returns:
    this
  - addProgressListener
```
ModelBuilder<T> addProgressListener(ProgressListener listener)
```
    Adds a progress listener which will receive progress events as the operation runs.
    
    Specified by:
    
    addProgressListener in interface LongRunningOperation
    
    Parameters:
    listener - The listener
    
    Returns:
    this
  - get
```
T get()
                    throws GradleConnectionException
```
    Fetch the model, blocking until it is available.
    
    Returns:
    The model.
    
    Throws:
    
    UnsupportedVersionException - When the target Gradle version does not support the features required to build this model.
    
    UnsupportedOperationConfigurationException - when you have configured the long running operation with a settings like: setStandardInput(java.io.InputStream), setJavaHome(java.io.File), setJvmArguments(String...) but those settings are not supported on the target Gradle.
    
    BuildException - On some failure executing the Gradle build.
    
    GradleConnectionException - On some other failure using the connection.
    
    IllegalStateException - When the connection has been closed or is closing.
  - get
```
void get(ResultHandler<? super T> handler)
         throws IllegalStateException
```
    Starts fetching the build. This method returns immediately, and the result is later passed to the given handler.
    
    Parameters:
    handler - The handler to supply the result to.
    
    Throws:
    
    IllegalStateException - When the connection has been closed or is closing.
