How to use the gradle plugins and how to auto-download the platform artifacts from the SAP Support Portal

I recently switched jobs away from SAP Commerce development

Demo Project for hybris gradle plugins

This project shows some usage examples for the SAP (Hybris) Commerce build plugin. It especially shows how to automatically download the distribution files from the SAP Support Portal

Check the comments in build.gradle for explanations and details.

For details about the used plugins check the commerce-gradle-plugin wiki

Setup local environment

1. clone the repository
2. cp gradle.properties.template gradle.properties
3. adapt gradle.properties as described in the file
4. ./gradlew setupDev
5. Done!

Note: use gradlew to execute the task to ensure the correct gradle version

Disclaimer: the final package will NOT pass the ypackagevalidator, because the datahub war file is just a dummy file.

If you want a valid package, set hcs.datahub = false

Interesting things

• All SupportPortalDownload tasks execute before bootstrapPlatform. (This is enforced by the plugin)
• SupportPortalDownload caches metadata for every downloaded file to speed up subsequent builds
• the hcs-configuration folder does not contain folders for every environment, but the final package still does. This is because the common folder is the base for every environment config
• also check out how the various *.properties files are merged (check the results in temp/gradle-build-demo_v1.0.0-SNAPSHOT)
• the datahub war file has the valid file name in the package
