Hi all,
I did multiple gradle build since last week and I would like to share
one of my concern: it's about the communities.
If I think our users won't see any change for them due to Gradle build
(I think that most of our users will still use Maven with artifacts
provided by Gradle), I'm more concerned by the dev community and the
contribution.
Maven is well known and straight forward for a large part of potential
contributors. I think we have to keep in mind that we still have to grow
up our contributors community.
Today, maybe I'm wrong, but I have the feeling that gradle build is not
straight forward (build.gradle includes build_rules.gradle, gathering
all taks all together).
I would like to add a task in the gradle "migration" process: simplify
the gradle structure and files, and document this.
I know we already have a Jira about the documentation part, but I would
like to "polish" and use a clean structure for the Gradle resources. As
already quickly discussed, I think that having one gradle file per tasks
in the .gradle directory would be helpful.
The goal is really to simplify the contribution.
Do you agree if I add a Jira about "Gradle polish" ?
Thoughts ?
Regards
JB

Here's an end-of-day update on migration work:
* Snapshot unsigned dailies and signed release builds are working (!!).
PR/5048 [1] merges changes from Luke's branch
* python precommit failing... will investigate python precommit Monday
* All Precommits are gradle only
* All Postcommits except performance tests and Java_JDK_Versions_Test
use gradle (after PR/5047 [2] merged)
* Nightly snapshot release using gradle is ready; needs PR/5048 to be
merged before switching
* ValidatesRunner_Spark failing consistently; investigating
Thanks for another productive day of hacking. I'll pick up again on Monday.

Why building a zip per runner which its stack and just pointing out
on that zip and let beam lazy load the runner:
--runner=LazyRunner --lazyRunnerDir=... --lazyRunnerOptions=... (or
the fromSystemProperties() if it gets merged a day ;))

I'm working on finding a solution for launching the Nexmark
suite with each runner. This doesn't have to be done via Gradle,
but we anyhow need built artifacts that don't require user
classpath intervention.
It looks to me like the examples are also missing this - they
have separate configuration e.g. sparkRunnerPreCommit but that
is overspecified compared to a free-form launching of a main()
program with a runner profile.

Romain, are you talking about the profiles that exist as
part of the archetype examples?
If so, then those still exist and haven't been changed. If
not, can you provide a link to the profile in a pom file to
be clearer?

Hi Scott,
is it right that 2 doesn't handle the hierachy anymore
and that it doesn't handle profiles for runners as it is
currently with maven?

I wanted to start a thread to summarize the current
state of Gradle migration. We've made lots of good
progress so far this week. Here's the status from
what I can tell-- please add or correct anything I
missed:
* Release artifacts can be built and published for
Snapshot and officlal releases [1]
* Gradle-generated releases have been validated with
the the Apache Beam archetype generation quickstart;
still needs additional validation.
* Generated release pom files have correct project
metadata [2]
* The python pre-commits are now working in Gradle [3]
* Ismaël has started a collaborative doc of Gradle
tips [4] as we all learn the new system-- please add
your own. This will eventually feed into official
documentation on the website.
* Łukasz Gajowy is working on migrating performance
testing framework [5]
* Daniel is working on updating documentation to
refer to Gradle instead of maven
If I missed anything, please add it to this thread.
The general roadmap we're working towards is:
(a) Publish release artifacts with Gradle (SNAPSHOT
and signed releases)
(b) Postcommits migrated to Gradle
(c) Migrate documentation from maven to Gradle
(d) Migrate perfkit suites to use Gradle
For those of you that are hacking: thanks for your
help so far! Progress is being roughly tracked on
the Kanban [6]; please make sure the issues assigned
to you are up-to-date. Many of the changes are
staged on lukecwik's local branch [7]; we'll work on
merging them back soon.
