Getting tired of downloading the latest driver into your project? You might want to take a look at gradle-download-task. This plugin allows you to download files (over HTTP and HTTPS) to a specific destination directory.
Herewith a simple example:
/**
* Include the gradle-download-task plugin
*/
plugins {
id 'de.undercouch.download' version '3.1.0'
}
apply plugin: 'java'
apply plugin: 'eclipse'
/**
* Import the Download task. This line is optional.
* You can of course also always use the full qualified name
* when you specify a task of type 'Download'.
*/
import de.undercouch.gradle.tasks.download.Download
/**
* The following two tasks download a ZIP file and extract its
* contents to the build directory
*/
task downloadZipFile(type: Download) {
src([
'http://chromedriver.storage.googleapis.com/2.22/chromedriver_mac32.zip',
'https://github.com/mozilla/geckodriver/releases/download/v0.9.0/geckodriver-v0.9.0-mac.tar.gz'
])
dest buildDir
acceptAnyCertificate true
overwrite true
}
task downloadAndUnzipFile(dependsOn: downloadZipFile, type: Copy) {
from zipTree('build/chromedriver_mac32.zip')
into 'src/main/resources'
from tarTree('build/geckodriver-v0.9.0-mac.tar.gz')
into 'src/main/resources'
}
defaultTasks 'downloadAndUnzipFile'
You only need to update the version numbers (from time to time) and the files will be downloaded and extracted. (eventually in src/main/resources)
