Gradle — execute multiple commands from task

Question

I have 2 separate apps (in one project) that require 2 separate builds (sencha cmd). I have been asked to create a gradle script that will do the builds for both apps.

Answer 1

You can use the second way to declare task types on gradle.

task senchaCmdBuild {
  doLast {
    exec {
      workingDir 'src/main/app/MYAPP'
      commandLine 'cmd', 'c', 'sencha app build'
    }
    exec {
      workingDir 'src/main/app/MYOTHERAPP'
      commandLine 'cmd', 'c', 'sencha app build'
    }
  }
}

You need put the exec method in doLast in order to be executed only on execution flow
