Gradle – way to list task dependencies in Gradle

gradle

./gradle tasks lists "some" of the tasks. Looking at
http://gradle.org/docs/current/userguide/java_plugin.html there are hidden ones not listed. Also, other plugins will not have such a nice pretty graph of the dependencies between tasks.

Is there a way to

  1. list all the tasks in all plugins with gradle
  2. list the tasks and what tasks they depend on (sort of like maven's dependency:tree but for tasks)

Best Answer

list the tasks and what tasks they depend on (sort of like maven's depenceny:tree but for tasks)

for this you can use --dry-run (or -m) option which lists tasks which are executed in order for particular command, but does not execute the command, e.g.

gradle assemble --dry-run
