| description | Bump the Gradle runtime version, validate all plugin dependencies, and validate the build workflow. |
Task preconditions
You MUST NOT generate code if even one of the preconditions is not met.
Identify target version
Extract the version from the request.
Check if version has major and minor number, e.g. 8.14.
Patch level is optional but can be supplied, e.g. 9.4.1.
Replace placeholder {version} with version.
Validate target version
If the local Gradle runtime version is not greater than or equal to {version} then
- Response with
Your local Gradle runtime is too old for source level {version}.
- Stop immediately.
- Do not edit files.
If any deprecation would break the build with the target version then
- Response with
Gradle version {version} has breaking changes in [script names].
- Stop immediately.
- Do not edit files.
Validate plugins
Verify that all plugins listed in settings.gradle have versions compatible with the target Gradle version, e.g.
If any plugin has a breaking change or deprecation that would prevent the build from completing then
- Response with
Gradle version {version} has breaking changes in [plugin names].
- Stop immediately.
- Do not edit files.
Task steps
Use this skill to bump Gradle {version} based on doc/manual/setup-gradle.adoc.
Update gradle/wrapper
gradle wrapper --gradle-version {version}
Update .github/workflows/build.yml
- In action
setup-gradle set gradle-version: "{version}"
Update .devcontainer/devcontainer.json
- In element
ghcr.io/devcontainers/features/java:1 set "gradleVersion": "{version}"
Validate changes
gradle build --parallel
Run from repository root.
This step must not fail.
