Upgrading our application from Grails 5 to Grails 6 and this approach for storing build metadata no longer works (adding build info to

<http://grails.build.info|grails.build.info>

) file: https://objectcomputing.com/news/2017/04/02/add-build-info-your-project We get the following error when running any Gradle task with our Grails 6 app now. Does anyone have a method they recommend for storing build metadata such as Git commit revision, build date, build number for a Grails 6 application?

Copy code

It looks like version 6.1.x of the Grails Gradle Plugin is still adding the

buildProperties

Gradle task, but I'm not sure how to modify my

build.gradle

file to use it properly. https://github.com/grails/grails-gradle-plugin/blob/dadb63307a397abe73d1d548f9dede4050229722/src/main/groovy/org/grails/gradle/plugin/core/GrailsGradlePlugin.groovy#L137-L139 https://github.com/grails/grails-gradle-plugin/blob/dadb63307a397abe73d1d548f9dede4050229722/src/main/groovy/org/grails/gradle/plugin/core/GrailsGradlePlugin.groovy#L214 For reference, here's the relevant code of the Grails Gradle Plugin version 5.3.x : https://github.com/grails/grails-gradle-plugin/blob/2dfd3033ec341a9f6b8ad26192c721a964aaad2c/src/main/groovy/org/grails/gradle/plugin/core/GrailsGradlePlugin.groovy#L138 https://github.com/grails/grails-gradle-plugin/blob/2dfd3033ec341a9f6b8ad26192c721a964aaad2c/src/main/groovy/org/grails/gradle/plugin/core/GrailsGradlePlugin.groovy#L206

I figured out how to get it working with Grails 6. I needed to wrap it all inside a

project.gradle.projectsEvaluated

closure like so:

Copy code

project.gradle.projectsEvaluated {
    buildProperties.doLast {
        ...
    }
}
