I am copying files using a copy block in Gradle 6.2 as follows but it does not fail if the file is missing.
copy {
from file("$project.projectDir/ABC.toml")
into file("${artifactDir}/XYZ")
}
How can I make the copying fail if "$project.projectDir/ABC.toml" file is missing ?
You can make it fail by checking the existence of the file manually and if it's absent, then throw an exception.
task copyMethod {
doFirst {
if (!file("ABC.toml").exists()) {
throw new GradleException("ABC.toml not found")
}
}
doLast {
copy {
from "ABC.toml"
into "${artifactDir}/XYZ"
}
}
}
