AbstractCopyTask

Specifies whether case-sensitive pattern matching should be used.

The Unix permissions to use for the target directories. null means that existing permissions are preserved. It is dependent on the copy action implementation whether these permissions will actually be applied.

The strategy to use when trying to copy more than one file to the same destination.

The value can be set with a case insensitive string of the enum value (e.g. 'exclude' for DuplicatesStrategy.EXCLUDE).

This strategy can be overridden for individual files by using CopySpec.eachFile() or CopySpec.filesMatching().

The set of exclude patterns.

The Unix permissions to use for the target files. null means that existing permissions are preserved. It is dependent on the copy action implementation whether these permissions will actually be applied.

Tells if empty target directories will be included in the copy.

The set of include patterns.

The source files for this task.

Adds an action to be applied to each file as it about to be copied into its destination. The given closure is called with a FileCopyDetails as its parameter. Actions are executed in the order added, and are inherited from the parent spec.

Adds an action to be applied to each file as it is about to be copied into its destination. The action can change the destination path of the file, filter the contents of the file, or exclude the file from the result entirely. Actions are executed in the order added, and are inherited from the parent spec.

Adds an exclude spec. This method may be called multiple times to append new specs.The given closure is passed a FileTreeElement as its parameter. The closure should return true or false. Example:

copySpec {
  from 'source'
  into 'destination'
  //an example of excluding files from certain configuration:
  exclude { it.file in configurations.someConf.files }
}

If excludes are not provided, then no files will be excluded. If excludes are provided, then files must not match any exclude pattern to be processed.

Adds an ANT style exclude pattern. This method may be called multiple times to append new patterns and multiple patterns may be specified in a single call. If excludes are not provided, then no files will be excluded. If excludes are provided, then files must not match any exclude pattern to be processed.

Expands property references in each file as it is copied. More specifically, each file is transformed using Groovy's SimpleTemplateEngine. This means you can use simple property references, such as $property or ${property} in the file. You can also include arbitrary Groovy code in the file, such as ${version ?: 'unknown'} or ${classpath*.name.join(' ')}

Configure the FileCopyDetails for each file whose path matches the specified Ant-style pattern. This is equivalent to using eachFile() and selectively applying a configuration based on the file's path.

Configure the FileCopyDetails for each file whose path does not match the specified Ant-style pattern. This is equivalent to using eachFile() and selectively applying a configuration based on the file's path.

Adds a content filter based on the provided closure. The Closure will be called with each line (stripped of line endings) and should return a String to replace the line.

Adds a content filter to be used during the copy. Multiple calls to filter, add additional filters to the filter chain. Each filter should implement java.io.FilterReader. Include org.apache.tools.ant.filters.* for access to all the standard Ant filters.

Examples:

filter(StripJavaComments)
   filter(com.mycompany.project.CustomFilter)

Adds a content filter to be used during the copy. Multiple calls to filter, add additional filters to the filter chain. Each filter should implement java.io.FilterReader. Include org.apache.tools.ant.filters.* for access to all the standard Ant filters.

Filter properties may be specified using groovy map syntax.

Examples:

filter(HeadFilter, lines:25, skip:2)
   filter(ReplaceTokens, tokens:[copyright:'2009', version:'2.3.1'])

Specifies the source files or directories for a copy and creates a child CopySourceSpec. The given source path is evaluated as per Project.files() .

Specifies source files or directories for a copy. The given paths are evaluated as per Project.files().

Adds an include spec. This method may be called multiple times to append new specs. The given closure is passed a FileTreeElement as its parameter. If includes are not provided, then all files in this container will be included. If includes are provided, then a file must match at least one of the include patterns or specs to be included.

Adds an ANT style include pattern. This method may be called multiple times to append new patterns and multiple patterns may be specified in a single call. If includes are not provided, then all files in this container will be included. If includes are provided, then a file must match at least one of the include patterns to be processed.

Specifies the destination directory for a copy. The destination is evaluated as per Project.file().

Creates and configures a child CopySpec with the given destination path. The destination is evaluated as per Project.file().

Renames a source file to a different relative location under the target directory. The closure will be called with a single parameter, the name of the file. The closure should return a String object with a new target name. The closure may return null, in which case the original name will be used.

Renames files based on a regular expression. Uses java.util.regex type of regular expressions. Note that the replace string should use the '$1' syntax to refer to capture groups in the source regular expression. Files that do not match the source regular expression will be copied with the original name.

Example:

rename '(.*)_OEM_BLUE_(.*)', '$1$2'

would map the file 'style_OEM_BLUE_.css' to 'style.css'

Renames files based on a regular expression. See CopyProcessingSpec.rename().

Adds the given specs as a child of this spec.
