RhinoTaskPlugin

A Gradle plugin that adds a "RhinoTask". The task can be used to run javascript inside Gradle builds using Rhino.

How to use it

You can use maven repository that is on github (https://raw.github.com/chilloutman/RhinoTaskPlugin/master/repo/) like this:

buildscript {
    repositories {
        maven {
            url 'https://raw.github.com/chilloutman/RhinoTaskPlugin/master/repo/'
        }
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath 'ch.neiva.gradle.plugins:rhinoTask:1.0'
    }
}

apply plugin: 'rhinoTask'

Or you could just download the jar or build it yourself, of course.

After you've done that you can use the RhinoTask to run any Rhino compatible javascripts. Here is an example that runs the requirejs optimizer:

task requirejsWithRhino(type: RhinoTask) {
    description "Runs the requirejs optimizer (r.js) with Rhino."
    args 'r.js', '-o', 'app.build.js'
    doFirst {
        println "*** Running r.js with Rhino ***"
        printCommand()
    }
}
