Hi Kevin,

Late to the party but I happened to see this thread now in my inbox. We also 
run our codegen via Gradle, using a custom source set named "codegen". We 
definitely don't have to specify any fully qualified path names, so this 
problem seems a bit odd indeed. Here's an excerpt from our build.gradle:

tasks.register( 'createAuditLoggingDbJooqDomainClasses', JavaExec ) {
    mainClass = 
'fi.hibox.centre.audit.db.codegen.CreateAuditLoggingDbJooqDomainClasses'
    classpath = sourceSets.codegen.runtimeClasspath

    inputs.files( fileTree( 'src/codegen' ) )
    inputs.files( fileTree( 'src/main' ) )

    args( 'src/generated/java', 'fi.hibox.centre.audit.db.domain' )
    outputs.dir( 'src/generated/java' )
}

(The CreateAuditLoggingDbJooqDomainClasses class is a Java console application 
which calls the org.jooq.codegen.GenerationTool class to run the code 
generation. It was convenient for us to wrap this in a Java class so we could 
take care of launching the Postgres server in a Testcontainer instance, apply 
DB migrations using Flyway and then run the jOOQ code gen, once the DB is fully 
up and "ready" with all the tables/etc in place.)

What does your use case look like more in detail, I guess you run this towards 
a "fixed", existing DB rather than a Docker container? Could you share some of 
your build.gradle to illustrate how you run the code generation in this case?

Best regards,
Per

Subject: Re: Code Generation Directory

I suppose that looking at examples none of the ones I found for Gradle code 
generation talked about or showed the need to set the base directory 
explicitly. Based on that I assumed the base directory was going to be the 
current project directory, obviously it's not

Hi Kevin,

jOOQ's code generator doesn't really know *how* you run it. I'm not a Gradle 
guru myself, but build tools often set base directories in one way or another 
(e.g. where you run the gradle process isn't the same as where the project 
resides, or the parent project in case you have modules, etc.) Personally, I 
never trust my judgement in understanding this behaviour, and instead, always 
use explicit environment variables, system properties or other well known 
variables. So, telling jOOQ explicitly what $projectDir means to you, which is 
a well known, documented variable, does seem quite alright, no? Why wouldn't it 
be?

See:
https://docs.gradle.org/current/dsl/org.gradle.api.Project.html#N14F19

Cheers,
Lukas

I've setup JOOQ code generation in Gradle using the Kotlin DSL.


The generator works except that I have to use the fully qualified name for the 
output directory, so


.withTarget(
Target()
.withPackageName("com.knowledgespike.db")
.withDirectory("/users/kevinj/projects/thisproject/src/main/generated/kotlin")

)


works, but


.withTarget(
Target()
.withPackageName("com.knowledgespike.db")
.withDirectory("src/main/generated/kotlin")
)


doesn't


If I set the baseDirectory on the configuration object that also works (i.e. I 
get the code generated relative to the base directory).


What I'd like is to get the code generated in my current project directory.


I can call .withBasedir("$projectDir") but that doesn't feel right to me. 
Should this "just work"?


Thanks,


Kevin Jones
