To develop new components, Talend Component Kit requires a build tool in which you will import the component project generated from the starter. With this build tool, you will also be able to implement the logic of your component and to install and deploy it to Talend applications. A Talend Component Kit plugin is available for each of the supported build tools.
gradle-talend-component helps you write components that match the best practices. It is inspired from the Maven plugin and adds the ability to generate automatically the dependencies.txt file used by the SDK to build the component classpath. For more information on the configuration, refer to the Maven properties matching the attributes.
You can use it as follows:
buildscript {
repositories {
mavenLocal()
mavenCentral()
}
dependencies {
classpath "org.talend.sdk.component:gradle-talend-component:${talendComponentVersion}"
}
}
apply plugin: 'org.talend.sdk.component'
apply plugin: 'java'
// optional customization
talendComponentKit {
// dependencies.txt generation, replaces maven-dependency-plugin
dependenciesLocation = "TALEND-INF/dependencies.txt"
boolean skipDependenciesFile = false;
// classpath for validation utilities
sdkVersion = "${talendComponentVersion}"
apiVersion = "${talendComponentApiVersion}"
// documentation
skipDocumentation = false
documentationOutput = new File(....)
documentationLevel = 2 // first level will be == in the generated adoc
documentationTitle = 'My Component Family' // default to project name
documentationFormats = [:] // adoc attributes
documentationFormats = [:] // renderings to do
// validation
skipValidation = false
validateFamily = true
validateSerializable = true
validateInternationalization = true
validateModel = true
validateOptionNames = true
validateMetadata = true
validateComponent = true
validateDataStore = true
validateDataSet = true
validateActions = true
// web
serverArguments = []
serverPort = 8080
// car
carOutput = new File(....)
carMetadata = [:] // custom meta (string key-value pairs)
}
