Web3j plugin for gradle task not found

I am beating against a wall for a whole week. I can't really see the reason why it doesn't work. I have a project where I want to run my Java project with the following build.gradle config:
plugins {
id 'java'
id 'org.springframework.boot' version '2.6.3'
id("io.spring.dependency-management") version "1.0.11.RELEASE"
id 'org.web3j' version "4.8.4"
}
repositories {
maven {
url "https://plugins.gradle.org/m2/"
}
mavenCentral()
jcenter()
}
sourceCompatibility = 1.8
targetCompatibility = 1.8
group = 'com.suplab'
sourceSets {
main {
solidity {
srcDir "contracts"
}
}
test {
solidity {
srcDir "contracts"
}
}
}
ext {
web3jVersion = '4.8.4'
}
npmInstall {
enabled false
}
dependencies {
implementation "org.web3j:core:$web3jVersion"
implementation "org.web3j:web3j-evm:$web3jVersion"
implementation 'org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-data-jpa'
implementation 'org.hibernate:hibernate-core:5.6.5.Final'
}
I use gradle version 6.8, since it was specified by developer of the plugin. When I try to build this project from the parent, root folder that is the root of the project, it fails with following error:
A problem occurred configuring project ':api'.
> Failed to notify project evaluation listener.
> Task with name 'resolveSolidity' not found in project ':api'.
> Could not create task ':api:generateTestContractWrappers'.
> Task with name 'compileTestSolidity' not found in project ':api'.
I can't figure it out. I checked it against the build that being generated with web3j-cli, and it's the same for the configuration property (both configs have it blank). So, I don't see any reason WHY it fails. Here's the webj3-cli generated build file:
plugins {

Gradle multi-project repository configuration not working for spring-boot application

I have a simple multi-project structure as follows:
|- gps-framework
|- build.gradle
|- settings.gradle
|- gps-web-service
|----build.gradle
|----src/main....
Under the root build.gradle located in gps-framework/ looks like this:
plugins {
id 'java'
id "java-library"
id "maven-publish"
id "jacoco"
id 'org.springframework.boot' version '2.3.4.RELEASE'
id 'io.spring.dependency-management' version '1.0.10.RELEASE'
}
subprojects {
subproject ->
apply plugin: 'maven-publish'
apply plugin: 'jacoco'
def isApp = subproject.name == 'gps-web-service'
if (isApp) {
apply plugin: 'java'
} else {
apply plugin: 'java-library'
}
group = 'com.mycompnay'
version = project.hasProperty('customVersion') ? project['customVersion'] : 'integration-SNAPSHOT'
//System.out.println(subproject.name)
compileJava {
sourceCompatibility = '1.8'
targetCompatibility = '1.8'
options.encoding = 'UTF-8'
}
compileTestJava {
sourceCompatibility = '1.8'
targetCompatibility = '1.8'
options.encoding = 'UTF-8'
}
repositories {
mavenCentral()
mavenLocal()
maven {
name "release"
url "my-custom-mvn-repo/release"
authentication {
//
}
}
maven {
name "snapshot"
url "my-custoom-mvn-repo/snapshot"
authentication {
//
}
}
}
configurations {
runtime.exclude(group: "org.slf4j", module:"slf4j-log4j12")
}
publishing {
repositories {
maven {
authentication {
//
}
def isSnapshot = subproject.version.contains('SNAPSHOT')
url = isSnapshot ? "my-custom-mvn-repo/snapshot" : "my-custom-mnv-repo/release"
}
}
}
jacocoTestReport {
reports {
xml.enabled true
html.enabled true
}
}
if (subproject.hasProperty('jacocoTestCoverageVerification')) {
subproject.check.dependsOn subproject.jacocoTestCoverageVerification
}
test {
testLogging {
exceptionFormat = 'full'
}
}
}
The build.gradle of sub-project gps-web-service located in gps-framework/gps-web-service looks like this:
group = 'com.mycompany'
version = '0.0.1-SNAPSHOT'
sourceCompatibility = '1.8'
dependencies {
implementation 'org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-web'
testImplementation('org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-test') {
exclude group: 'org.junit.vintage', module: 'junit-vintage-engine'
}
}
test {
useJUnitPlatform()
}
From what I have read so far, since the repository settings are defined in the root build.gradle and these settings are injected into these subprojects, I do not need to redefine repository settings. This does not appear to be the case as when I run
./gradlew build
The error I get is:
Could not find org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-web:.
Required by:
project :gps-web-service
Possible solution:
- Declare repository providing the artifact, see the documentation at https://docs.gradle.org/current/userguide/declaring_repositories.html
Am I misunderstanding the whole concept of injection of project properties or what am I missing here? I will try duplicating the repo settings in the sub-projects build.gradle but was hoping this is not necessary.

To solve this specific problem, I had to define the spring boot plugin in the sub-project's build.gradle as follows:
plugins {
id 'org.springframework.boot' version '2.3.4.RELEASE'
id 'io.spring.dependency-management' version '1.0.10.RELEASE'
}
The resulting file looks like this:
plugins {
id 'org.springframework.boot' version '2.3.4.RELEASE'
id 'io.spring.dependency-management' version '1.0.10.RELEASE'
}
group = 'com.mycompany'
version = '0.0.1-SNAPSHOT'
sourceCompatibility = '1.8'
dependencies {
implementation 'org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-web'
testImplementation('org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-test') {
exclude group: 'org.junit.vintage', module: 'junit-vintage-engine'
}
}
test {
useJUnitPlatform()
}

gradle generates protobuf class but shows compile error

The generated protobuf class is under generated-sources as expected.
But it has references to com.google.protobuf, for example below code. And I get compilation error saying com.google.protobuf not found.
public static void registerAllExtensions(
com.google.protobuf.ExtensionRegistryLite registry) {
}
The below is my build.gradle file.
plugins {
id 'org.springframework.boot' version '2.2.2.RELEASE'
id 'io.spring.dependency-management' version '1.0.8.RELEASE'
id 'java'
id 'com.google.protobuf' version '0.8.10'
}
group = 'com.example'
version = '0.0.1-SNAPSHOT'
sourceCompatibility = '1.8'
repositories {
mavenCentral()
}
dependencies {
implementation 'org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-web'
testImplementation('org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-test') {
exclude group: 'org.junit.vintage', module: 'junit-vintage-engine'
}
}
test {
useJUnitPlatform()
}
sourceSets {
main {
proto {
srcDir 'src/main/proto'
}
java {
// include self written and generated code
srcDirs 'src/main/java', 'generated-sources/main/java'
}
}
// remove the test configuration - at least in your example you don't have a special test proto file
}
protobuf {
// Configure the protoc executable
protoc {
// Download from repositories
artifact = 'com.google.protobuf:protoc:3.0.0'
}
generateProtoTasks.generatedFilesBaseDir = 'generated-sources'
generateProtoTasks {
// all() returns the collection of all protoc tasks
all().each { task ->
// Here you can configure the task
}
// In addition to all(), you may get the task collection by various
// criteria:
// (Java only) returns tasks for a sourceSet
ofSourceSet('main')
}
}
I think the problem is that the protobuf library is not showing up in the external libraries of my intellij project. Is there a way to make it work with gradle?

Working gradle file:
plugins {
id 'org.springframework.boot' version '2.2.2.RELEASE'
id 'io.spring.dependency-management' version '1.0.8.RELEASE'
id 'java'
id 'com.google.protobuf' version '0.8.10'
}
group = 'com.example'
version = '0.0.1-SNAPSHOT'
sourceCompatibility = '1.8'
repositories {
mavenCentral()
}
dependencies {
implementation 'org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-web'
implementation 'com.google.protobuf:protobuf-java:3.11.1'
testImplementation('org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-test') {
exclude group: 'org.junit.vintage', module: 'junit-vintage-engine'
}
}
test {
useJUnitPlatform()
}
sourceSets {
main {
proto {
srcDir 'src/main/proto'
}
java {
// include self written and generated code
srcDirs 'src/main/java', 'generated-sources/main/java'
}
}
// remove the test configuration - at least in your example you don't have a special test proto file
}
protobuf {
// Configure the protoc executable
protoc {
// Download from repositories
artifact = 'com.google.protobuf:protoc:3.6.0'
}
generateProtoTasks.generatedFilesBaseDir = 'generated-sources'
generateProtoTasks {
// all() returns the collection of all protoc tasks
all().each { task ->
// Here you can configure the task
}
// In addition to all(), you may get the task collection by various
// criteria:
// (Java only) returns tasks for a sourceSet
ofSourceSet('main')
}
}

Gradle tests not running with javafx project

testLogging {

}
}
javafx {

}
My project structure is the usual:
src/main/java/mvc/Main.java
src/test/java/mvc/MainTest.java
When I run gradle test or ./gradlew test tests it doesn't execute any tests, not sure what's wrong.

testCompile is no longer a suppored command, you should use testImplementation instead.

Spring Boot Can't find main class Multi module

I am having difficulties telling Spring the location of the Main class. So far I have only managed to correctly specify where it is when it is in pictures-service module (i.e., pictures-service/src/main/com.bachadiff.application/Application.java)
This is the file structure.
And this is the main gradle file.
buildscript {
repositories {
mavenCentral()
}
dependencies {
classpath("org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-gradle-plugin:2.0.2.RELEASE")
}
}
plugins {
id 'java'
id 'java-library'
id 'idea'
id "org.springframework.boot" version "2.0.2.RELEASE"
id "io.spring.dependency-management" version "1.0.5.RELEASE"
}
bootJar {
baseName = 'com.bachadiff.pictures-service'
version = '0.1.0'
mainClassName = 'com.bachadiff.application.Application'
}
version = '0.1.0'
repositories {
mavenCentral()
}
sourceCompatibility = 1.8
targetCompatibility = 1.8
ext.common = [
spring_web : 'org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-web:2.0.2.RELEASE',
spring_rest : 'org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-data-rest:2.0.2.RELEASE',
spring_mongo: 'org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-data-mongodb:2.0.2.RELEASE',
spring_test : 'org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-test'
]
ext.test = [
junit: 'junit:junit:4.12'
]
dependencies {
api 'org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-web:2.0.2.RELEASE'
api 'org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-data-rest:2.0.2.RELEASE'
api 'org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-data-mongodb:2.0.2.RELEASE'
compile project(':pictures-service-impl')
testImplementation 'org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-test'
}

The mainClassName should consist out of the package and the class name itself, so in your case that should be:
mainClassName = 'com.bachadiff.application.Application'
And since you are saying that you have a multi-project build, you should put this in the build.gradle for the pictures-service-application project
