Is gradle incremental build supported?

[ThomGeG]

Came here wondering the same thing, as I'm in the market for a plugin to simplify my build pipelines.

Looks like the answer is no based on the fact that the project doesn't use the @Input annotation anywhere, most importantly on the getters for all the parameters:

gradle-docker/src/main/groovy/com/palantir/gradle/docker/DockerExtension.groovy

Line 175 in ade8ef3

public boolean getNoCache() {

The workaround from #413 would therefore be required unless somebody made a contribution, which may be tricky given how the getters/setters have been setup.

EDIT: On the off-chance a future explorer comes looking, it seems like gradle-docker-plugin supports incremental builds, as it's using the necessary annotations OOTB. I've put it into a project of mine and it's doing a lovely job:

Gradle says:

Caching disabled for task ':docker' because:
  Gradle would require more information to cache this task
Task ':docker' is not up-to-date because:
  Task has not declared any outputs despite executing actions.
