Command Line

To pass project properties via the command line in Gradle, you can use the -P flag followed by the property name and value. This allows you to override or define properties at runtime without modifying the gradle.properties file.

Example of Passing a Project Property via the Command Line:

You can pass the version property like this:

gt.sandbox.checkout.commit d043a3a \
&& cd "${GT_SANDBOX_REPO}" \
&& cmd.run.announce "./gradlew go -Pversion=9.9"

> Task :lib:go
Project version: 9.9

1 actionable task: 1 executed

This will override any version property defined in the gradle.properties file and set the version for this specific build invocation.

Key Points:

• Use -PpropertyName=value to pass properties via the command line.
• Properties passed this way override those defined in the gradle.properties file.
• Access the property in your build script using project.propertyName.
