gradle - how to exclude WEB-INF/classes from war

问题

I have a fairly simple requirement. I have the following project layout:

project/build.gradle
 --src/main/java
 --src/main/res

What I would like to do is create a jar for all the java files in project/src/main/java

Include this jar file in the war and then exclude the WEB-INF/classes from the war file

My `build.gradle` look as follows:

apply plugin: 'java'
apply plugin: 'eclipse'
apply plugin: 'jetty'
apply plugin: 'war'

dependencies {
..
    compile 'com.fasterxml.jackson.core:jackson-core:2.3.0'
    compile 'com.fasterxml.jackson.core:jackson-databind:2.3.0'
..
}

jar {
    archiveName = 'hello.jar'
}

war {
    dependsOn jar
    archiveName = 'hello.war'
    classpath fileTree(dir:'build/libs/',include:'*.jar')
    classpath configurations.compile
    webInf {
        from ('src/main/res') {
            include '**/*.*'
            into 'resources/'
        }
    }
}

I have tried various things to exclude WEB-INF/classes including the following snippets:

Using rootSpec.exclude:

war {
    dependsOn jar
    archiveName = 'hello.war'
    classpath fileTree(dir:'build/libs/',include:'*.jar')
    classpath configurations.compile
    rootSpec.exclude ('WEB-INF/classes')
    ...
}

Using classpath:

war {
    dependsOn jar
    archiveName = 'hello.war'
    classpath fileTree(dir:'build/libs/',include:'*.jar')
    classpath configurations.compile
    classpath fileTree(dir:'build/classes/', exclude:'*.class')
    ...
}

Using from ('war'):

war {
    dependsOn jar
    archiveName = 'hello.war'
    classpath fileTree(dir:'build/libs/',include:'*.jar')
    classpath configurations.compile
    from ('war') {
       exclude('WEB-INF/classes')
    }
}

Doing a direct 'exclude':

war {
    dependsOn jar
    archiveName = 'hello.war'
    classpath fileTree(dir:'build/libs/',include:'*.jar')
    classpath configurations.compile
    exclude('WEB-INF/classes')
    ...
}

Which were all the suggestions I found online - but none of them seems to work. Any ideas what I am doing wrong.

Here are links to some of the articles and code I found: Gradle: War Task has Conflicting Includes/Excludes

Below is what worked for me, but you will still see an (harmless) empty package in the war bundle:

war {
    rootSpec.exclude('**/com/xxxxx/web/client/')
}

I looked to the articles and this code works:

  from 'src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/classes'
  exclude '**/*.class'

You're right about the massive trial and error. This worked for me:

war {

...

/* We bundle as a jar so that we can sign the jar.
 * So, we exclude our separate class files.
 */
rootSpec.exclude('**/com/**')

// include our jar file
classpath fileTree(dir:"${project.buildDir}/libs/",include:project.YourJarFileNm)

...

}

from("./"){
        includes = [
            "a.log",
             "b.properties","src/**"             
        ]

        into 'WEB-INF/'
          }
       excludes = [
            "WEB-INF/misc/**"             
        ]

This worked for me to exclude the classes folder from WEB-INF

war{
  classpath = fileTree('*').exclude('**/classes')
}

I got this from http://gradle.1045684.n5.nabble.com/Exclude-properties-file-from-war-td3365147.html

回答6:

you can try this.

war {
    enabled = true
    classpath = classpath - sourceSets.main.output
    from (jar) {
        into 'WEB-INF/classes'
    }
}

This works for me:

war {
        dependsOn jar
        archiveName = 'hello.war'
        classpath = jar
    }
