How would I include a properties file in Gradle?
For example in Ant, I could do the following:
<property file="${basedir}/build.properties" />

In your task (jar or any other task) you can do this way to include any file into the destination folder
jar{
//jar task related code
from("src/main/......(source)") {
include 'xxx.properties' into('com/.....(destination)')
}
}
This is for Kotlin DSL (build.gradle.kts):
import java.util.*
// ...
val properties = Properties().apply {
load(rootProject.file("local.properties").reader())
}
val prop = properties["propName"]
In Android projects (when applying the android plugin) you can also do this:
import com.android.build.gradle.internal.cxx.configure.gradleLocalProperties
// ...
val properties = gradleLocalProperties(rootDir)
val prop = properties["propName"]
