Requirements

This project requires JDK 17.

Build

The Gradle wrapper is configured for Gradle 8.14 and will download it automatically. To compile and run the tests locally:

./gradlew build

The produced plugin distribution is available under build/distributions.

Release

The release workflow relies on the GitHub secrets PUBLISH_TOKEN, CERTIFICATE_CHAIN, PRIVATE_KEY, and PRIVATE_KEY_PASSWORD. Multi-line values like CERTIFICATE_CHAIN and PRIVATE_KEY must be stored in Base64 format. To encode a file before adding it as a secret, run:

base64 -w0 path/to/yourfile > encoded.txt

Copy the single-line output and use it as the secret value. The workflow will decode the values and supply them to the signPlugin and publishPlugin tasks.
