[gradle-user] Using the configuration of one task for another

[chris]

Hi,

Anybody know if its possible to copy a task's config to be used in another
task?
For example, I have a project with 2 war tasks, and I don't want to repeat
myself with the same block of config for each. I configured the first one
(as the default war task) as something like:


war 
{
    baseName = "first-$baseName"
    into ('WEB-INF/classes') {
        from rootProject.file('build-gradle')
    }
    into ('WEB-INF/classes') {
        from fileTree(sourceSets.main.classesDir)
        include('com/foo/web/**/*')
    }
    webInf {
        from fileTree("$webAppDir/WEB-INF-1")
    }
}
war.dependsOn(rootProject.propertiesMerge)


Then I want another war task with pretty much the same setup but with a
different webInf & baseName:


task warSecond(type: War, dependsOn: rootProject.propertiesMerge) {
    baseName = "second-$baseName"
    webInf {
        from fileTree("$webAppDir/WEB-INF-2")
    }
    
    // do I have to reproduce the config for the default war task...?
}
warSecond.dependsOn(rootProject.propertiesMerge)


Any way I can get some re-use here?

Thanks!
Chris.
