I have a Gradle build where a large JSON configuration is bundled into a package for later upload onto a server. Sometimes when changes are made to the file, the file is not valid any more and thus fails to upload on the server.
I would like to find this earlier by adding a validate-step in the Gradle build.
When looking around I could not find a documented way to do this, I saw the project gradle-json-validator which looks promising, but there is no documentation whatsoever, so I am not sure how this can be used...
Any hint on gradle-json-validator or any other way to validate a JSON file as part of the Gradle build steps?
