Gradle JasperReports Plugin

Description

Provides the capability to compile JasperReports design files. This plugin is designed to work like the Maven plugins Maven 2 JasperReports Plugin and JasperReports-plugin. Much of this was inspired by these two projects.

Usage

This plugin provides one main task, compileAllReports. It uses incremental task feature to process out-of-date files and parallel collections from GPars for parallel processing. Adapt your build process to your own needs by defining the proper tasks depedencies (see Custom Build Process below).

If your designs compilation needs to run after Groovy compilation, running compileAllReports should give a similar output:

$ gradle compileAllReports
:compileJava UP-TO-DATE
:compileGroovy UP-TO-DATE
:prepareReportsCompilation
:compileAllReports
21 designs compiled in 2222 ms

BUILD SUCCESSFUL

Total time: 6.577 secs

To clean up and start fresh, simply run:

$ gradle clean compileAllReports

Installation

Using the pluging DSL...

plugins {
  id "com.github.gmazelier.jasperreports" version "0.4"
}

Using the legacy plugin application...

buildscript {
  repositories {
    maven {
      url "https://plugins.gradle.org/m2/"
    }
  }
  dependencies {
    classpath "com.github.gmazelier:jasperreports-gradle-plugin:0.4"
  }
}

apply plugin: "com.github.gmazelier.jasperreports"

Configuration

Below are the parameters that can be used to configure the build:

Parameter	Type	Description
`srcDir`	`File`	Design source files directory. Default value: `src/main/jasperreports`
`tmpDir`	`File`	Temporary files (`.java`) directory. Default value: `${project.buildDir}/jasperreports`
`outDir`	`File`	Compiled reports file directory. Default value: `${project.buildDir}/classes/main`
`srcExt`	`String`	Design source files extension. Default value: `'.jrxml'`
`outExt`	`String`	Compiled reports files extension. Default value: `'.jasper'`
`compiler`	`String`	The report compiler to use. Default value: `net.sf.jasperreports.engine.design.JRJdtCompiler`
`keepJava`	`boolean`	Keep temporary files after compiling. Default value: `false`
`validateXml`	`boolean`	Validate source files before compiling. Default value: `true`
`verbose`	`boolean`	Verbose plugin outpout. Default value: `false`
`useRelativeOutDir`	`boolean`	The outDir is relative to java classpath. Default value: `false`
`classpath`	`Iterable<File>`	Extra elements to add to the classpath when compile. Default value: `[]`

Example

Below is a complete example, with default values:

jasperreports {
    srcDir = file('src/main/jasperreports')
    tmpDir = file('${project.buildDir}/jasperreports')
    outDir = file('${project.buildDir}/classes/main')
    srcExt = '.jrxml'
    outExt = '.jasper'
    compiler = 'net.sf.jasperreports.engine.design.JRJdtCompiler'
    keepJava = false
    validateXml = true
    verbose = false
    useRelativeOutDir = false
    classpath = []
}

Custom Build Process

Adding a task dependency is very simple. For example, if you want to make sure that Groovy (and Java) compilation is successfully performed before JasperReports designs compilation, just add the following to your build script:

compileAllReports.dependsOn compileGroovy

Custom Classpath

Sharing dependencies

Here's a way to share dependencies (joda-time in this example) between the main project and the designs compilation:

buildscript {
  ext {
    libs = [
      jrdeps: [
        // all dependencies shared with JasperReports
        'joda-time:joda-time:2.7'
      ]
    ]
  }
  repositories {
    jcenter()
    mavenCentral()
    maven {
        url 'http://jaspersoft.artifactoryonline.com/jaspersoft/third-party-ce-artifacts/'
    }
    maven {
      url 'http://jasperreports.sourceforge.net/maven2'
    }
    maven {
      url 'http://repository.jboss.org/maven2/'
    }
  }
  dependencies {
    classpath 'com.github.gmazelier:jasperreports-gradle-plugin:0.3.2'
    classpath libs.jrdeps
  }
}

apply plugin: 'groovy'
apply plugin: 'com.github.gmazelier.jasperreports'

repositories {
    mavenCentral()
}

dependencies {
  compile libs.jrdeps
}

jasperreports {
  verbose = true
}

compileAllReports.dependsOn compileGroovy

Adding Project Compiled Sources

Use the classpath property to acces your compiled sources in you JasperReports designs. Configure your build script in a similar way:

jasperreports {
    verbose = true
    classpath = project.sourceSets.main.output
}
