Execute shell script in Gradle

Question

I have a gradle build setup at the beginning of which I want to execute a shellscript in a subdirectory that prepares my environment.

task build << {
         


        

Answer 1

use

commandLine 'sh', './myScript.sh'

your script itself is not a program itself, that's why you have to declare 'sh' as the program and the path to your script as an argument.
