Hi Đạt and all, I made some progress starting from Đạt's patch:
- Now the patch compiles all the projects, and can be applied to the upstream version - I removed the changes to the source/test paths, and override the default gradle paths to the one used by ant (so future commits will not create conflicts) I uploaded it in https://github.com/diegoceccarelli/lucene-solr/tree/lucenesolr-gradle You can play with the patch by running: curl https://github.com/diegoceccarelli/lucene-solr/commit/77b8cf36e93e1df2d23267dbe7dc16abf894fe58.patch | git apply -v from master, followed by './gradlew build' There is still a lot of work to do: - I didn't touch the tests (they might not compile) - I tried to load it on intellij as a gradle project and it didn't work - it doesn't produce a standalone jar - some dependencies are probably out of sync, we should have something to read them directly from the ivy configuration, or a script to convert them.. Please let me know if you have any comments, PR are very welcome :) Thanks, Diego On Thu, Mar 7, 2019 at 8:08 AM Martin Gainty <mgai...@hotmail.com> wrote: > your argument that gradle is faster than maven is based on internal > caching algorithm that gradle references > > IF you are *NOT* politically endangered from implementing maven i > encourage you to take a hard look at > > "implementing caching of maven artifacts using cache-proxies" > > https://support.sonatype.com/hc/en-us/articles/115010182627-Understanding-Caching-Configuration > > <https://support.sonatype.com/hc/en-us/articles/115010182627-Understanding-Caching-Configuration> > Understanding Caching Configuration – Sonatype Support > <https://support.sonatype.com/hc/en-us/articles/115010182627-Understanding-Caching-Configuration> > Proxy repositories use caching to improve build performance.
