Here's an example of how you might do it. This example assumes that there's no
source code in the root project (just change subprojects to allprojects to fix
that)
apply plugin: 'base'
task javadoc(type: Javadoc) {
destinationDir = file("$buildDir/javadoc")
source = files { subprojects.collect { it.sourceSets.main.java } }
classpath = files { subprojects.collect {
it.sourceSets.main.compileClasspath } }
}
task sourceZip(type: Zip) {
classifier = 'source'
from { subprojects.collect { it.sourceSets.main.allSource } }
}
task javadocZip(type: Zip) {
classifier = 'javadoc'
from javadoc.outputs.files
}
At some point I'd like to package this stuff up into some kind of 'aggregate'
plugin. You'd apply the plugin to declare that the project is an aggregate of
several others (not necessarily its subprojects). You'd end up with aggregate
artifacts that combine the projects together: jar, javadoc, source, etc.
Probably reporting too. And possibly some additional lifecycle tasks to manage
them.
