settings.gradle

build.gradle

plugins are prepared for java, publishing jar files to maven server and using versioning via git.

versioning

the version field will be overwritten by gitversioning so there is no need to change it.

gitversioning will convert tag "vx.x.x"/"devx.x.x" to the version "x.x.x"/"devx.x.x", if no tag is used while building the latest sommit short (eg. e4b15fc) and "-SNAPSHOT" so the possible outcomes are: "NAME-x.x.x", "NAME-devx.x.x" and NAME-SHORT-SNAPSHOT"

java version

The Java version can be changed by editing this line:

def targetJavaVersion = 25

publishing jars to maven server

The GitHubPackages repositories should always be available Other repositories can be added inside the repository array (repository{...})

Generating gradle building files

The generated files should be uploaded to github as they are used by the github runner and other users to build the project.

gradle wrapper

workflows

gradle publish

By default this workflow triggers when an tag that stars with "v" or "dev" is created and only runs on self-hosted runners.

Java class paths and files

change the folder structure and main.jar, then the corrosponding class paths in the former main.jar.
