07/21/2022, 7:16 PMif you create a
devsrc/dev/resourcessrc/dev/javam
Matt Raykowski
07/21/2022, 7:18 PMThe main thing is that we don't want src/dev/resources included in a release.
j
Javi
07/21/2022, 7:20 PMmaybe R8?
m
Matt Raykowski
07/21/2022, 7:20 PMR8?
j
Javi
07/21/2022, 7:21 PMit is which Android uses to remove any unused resource
Javi
07/21/2022, 7:22 PMI think it can be used in java projects too but I am not sure, I haven't used it outside Android
e
ephemient
07/21/2022, 7:23 PMit can, but r8 doesn't do anything with resources
ephemient
07/21/2022, 7:23 PMdo you want full-blown build variants like Android?
m
Matt Raykowski
07/21/2022, 7:24 PMI was kind of thinking of something more like
if System.getenv("CI")e
ephemient
07/21/2022, 7:25 PMyou could conditionally register new srcDirs, but IMO that's a terrible idea. your CI will either verify the prod configuration but not the dev configuration, or vice versa.

Matt Raykowski
07/21/2022, 7:26 PMI might be XY Probleming this big time.
e
ephemient
07/21/2022, 7:27 PMhttps://docs.gradle.org/current/userguide/feature_variants.html shows off gradle-native variants, but they don't have the automatic hierarchy that Android does
m
Matt Raykowski
07/21/2022, 7:27 PMWe have files like "cassandra.properties" and "rabbitmq.properties" in our src/main/resources and the idea one of my developers floated was that when running locally we include src/dev/resources in the classpath to supercede our default settings.
j
Javi
07/21/2022, 7:28 PMwhy not using local.properties
e
ephemient
07/21/2022, 7:28 PMI don't think you can rely on a specific order of resources on conflict
m
Matt Raykowski
07/21/2022, 7:28 PMHe wants to be able to edit those files locally, have them gitignored, but not have it in the resulting JAR file when we build for release.
j
Javi
07/21/2022, 7:29 PMlocal.properties then
e
ephemient
07/21/2022, 7:29 PMrather than
local.propertiesj
Javi
07/21/2022, 7:30 PM Copy code

07/21/2022, 7:31 PMI use that to get properties from local, env and gradle properties
e
ephemient
07/21/2022, 7:31 PMhow does that help with the resources that are used in the binary
m
Matt Raykowski
07/21/2022, 7:31 PMYeah.
Matt Raykowski
07/21/2022, 7:31 PMThat's my problem. XML, properties, and JKS files.
Matt Raykowski
07/21/2022, 7:32 PMA lot of the properties could be driven by environment variable, but some cannot.

Javi
07/21/2022, 7:32 PMI replied about his properties files which he wants to be ignored

07/21/2022, 7:40 PMThanks for the feedback everyone
Matt Raykowski
07/21/2022, 7:40 PMI appreciate it.
