We package our products with Gradle and shadowJar. Some of the libraries we use, utilize individual sections in Jar Manifests, specifically attributes like Implementation-Title and Implementation-Version. These sometimes show in (the outputs of) our products, so I'd like them to survive the shawdowJar-Process.
lib1.jar/META-INF/MANIFEST.MF
Manifest-Version: 1.0
...
Name: org/some/lib
...
Implementation-Title: someLib
Implementation-Version: 2.3
...
lib2.jar/META-INF/MANIFEST.MF
Manifest-Version: 1.0
...
Name: org/some/other/lib
...
Implementation-Title: someOtherLib
Implementation-Version: 5.7-RC
...
=> product.jar/META-INF/MANIFEST.MF
Manifest-Version: 1.0
...
Name: org/some/lib
...
Implementation-Title: someLib
Implementation-Version: 2.3
...
Name: org/some/other/lib
...
Implementation-Title: someOtherLib
Implementation-Version: 5.7-RC
...
project.shadowJar {
manifest {
attributes(["Implementation-Title" : "someLib"], "org/some/lib")
attributes(["Implementation-Title" : "someOtherLib"], "org/some/other/lib")
}
}
generates exactly what I want, statically.
project.shadowJar {
manifest {
for (dependency in includedDependencies) {
// read in jar file and set attributes
}
}
}
Gradle is not happy: "Cannot change dependencies of dependency configuration ':project:products:<ProductName>:compile' after it has been included in dependency resolution."
def dependencies = [];
project.tasks.register('resolveDependencies') {
doFirst {
gradleProject.configurations.compile.resolvedConfiguration.resolvedArtifacts.each {
dependencies.add(it.file)
}
}
}
project.tasks['shadowJar'].dependsOn(project.tasks['resolveDependencies']);
project.shadowJar {
manifest {
// dependencies will be empty when this code is called
for (dependency in dependencies) {
// read in jar file and set attributes
}
}
}
The dependencies are not resolved in time.
How can I access the dependencies without upsetting Gradle? Alternatively, is there another way to merge the named individual sections with shadowJar?
According to https://github.com/johnrengelman/shadow/issues/369 the Transformer interface of shadowJar should be used to do this.
So here comes:
import com.github.jengelman.gradle.plugins.shadow.transformers.Transformer;
import com.github.jengelman.gradle.plugins.shadow.transformers.TransformerContext;
import java.io.ByteArrayOutputStream;
import java.util.jar.Attributes;
import java.util.jar.Manifest;
import java.util.Map.Entry;
import shadow.org.apache.tools.zip.ZipOutputStream;
import shadow.org.apache.tools.zip.ZipEntry;
import shadow.org.codehaus.plexus.util.IOUtil;
import org.gradle.api.file.FileTreeElement;
import static java.nio.charset.StandardCharsets.*
import static java.util.jar.JarFile.*;
