I looked at the solr ref guide build and started converting it to Gradle but have a question to Mark (because he coordinates the effort).
What immediately jumps into face is the decision problem -- do we want to emulate what ant does at the moment or do we want to clean it up (breaking file/ folder structure and causing incompatibility with ant build). I went the "compatible" way and started porting ant tasks but it's quite awkward. For example -- there are template properties that refer to ivy version properties... we could emulate/ compute these but it's a pain. The way the module is currently structured is also awkward - it'd be more natural to have a separate java project with the "tools" required to compile extra stuff and just reference it from the manual build (and this would be a plain module, not a java module). This would limit the need for customizing source sets, classpaths, etc. My few initial tasks syncing sources, setting up infrastructure to filter templates and compiling the required tools are here: https://github.com/apache/lucene-solr/compare/jira/SOLR-13452_gradle_7_refguide...dweiss:jira/SOLR-13452_gradle_7_refguide?expand=1 I'll stop and wait for feedback (especially on the ivy versions issue) before I resume.
