Gradle, filter resource one way for tests, another way when packaging artifact
I have a gradle project, with some database migration scripts.
The migration files have a variable which I replace using resource filtering. This works fine and is accomplished like this:
processResources {
filter ReplaceTokens, tokens: [
"index.refresh.period": project.property("index.refresh.period")
]
}
Now I have written a unit test that starts up an embedded database and apply the same migration scripts. However, for testing I need to substitute another value.
How can I accomplish this?
I have tried a number of different things but nothing seems to work. I should mention that I am new to Gradle so it's a trial and error approach.
Attempt #1:
test {
project.ext.setProperty('index.refresh.period', '1')
processResources
}
Attempt #2:
compileTestJava {
project.ext.setProperty('index.refresh.period', '1')
processResources
}

resource files insrc/test/resources
directory help you to have different resource for test. did you tried that?

Thanks for your comment. I would like to avoid adding a copy of each database migration script to the test folder (most likely future developers will forget to do add a copy of their script to the test folder). Instead, i would like to use parameter substitution such that certain values gets substituted into the migration scripts when testing, and other values for the final artifact.

I ended up copy pasting the migration scripts to the output test resources folder and do the filtering as part of this copy action.
Note that resources in the test folder takes precedence during testing. This means that the logic using these files, in my use case a database migration tool, do not need any test specific configuration due to the change below - the db migration scripts in the test resource folder simply takes precedence.
processResources {
filter ReplaceTokens, tokens: [
"index.refresh.period": project.property("index.refresh.period")
]
}
task copyFiles(type: Copy) {
println "Copying db migration scrips to test resources (in order to set shortest possible index refresh period)"
from 'src/main/resources/db/migration'
into "${buildDir}/resources/test/db/migration"
filter ReplaceTokens, tokens: [
"index.refresh.period": '1'
]
}
processTestResources {
dependsOn copyFiles
}
The project property 'index.refresh.period
' is defined in my gradle.properties file as this:
index.refresh.period=60
