Define Hello World Task (Gradle)

Defining a Task

tasks.register("hello") {
    doLast {
        println("Hello, Gradle!")
    }
}

The doLast block specifies the action to perform when the task is executed. In this case, it simply prints a message to the console.

# To run this task
mac> ./gradlew hello

gt.sandbox.checkout.commit 192830c \
&& cd "${GT_SANDBOX_REPO}" \
&& cmd.run.announce "./gradlew hello"

> Task :lib:hello
Hello, Gradle!
