Does plugin support to download file from local a relative file? about gradle-download-task HOT 6 CLOSED

Yes, it does. Just use the following notation:

src file("src/gradleTest/relativeUrl/bundle.zip").toURI().toURL()

from gradle-download-task.

Can i just put "file:src/gradleTest/relativeUrl/bundle.zip" not use "src file("src/gradleTest/relativeUrl/bundle.zip").toURI().toURL()" this type? I want to pass the src as a string to download task, but it will throw "URI is not hierarchical"

You have to pass a valid URI to src. file:src/gradleTest/relativeUrl/bundle.zip is not a valid URI. File URIs always have to be absolute. That's just how URIs work. Correct me if I'm wrong but I don't think you can get around the file(...).toURI().toURL() call.

it can directly use "src/gradleTest/relativeUrl/bundle.zip" to set src url when we use older version gradle download task. When I tried to upgrade to 5.0.0, it always try to find this in "/home/simon/.gradle/daemon/6.9.2/src/gradleTest/relativeUrl/bundle.zip"

from gradle-download-task.

file() is a built-in function from Gradle. It's an alias of project.file(). It should return a File object that is relative to the project directory. Alternatively, you can use new File(projectDir, "src/gradleTest/relativeUrl/bundle.zip").toURI().toURL(). This should get you the same result.

If you haven't worked with files in Gradle yet, this page might help you:
https://docs.gradle.org/current/userguide/working_with_files.html

From that page: "The Project.file(java.lang.Object) method is used to create a file or directory path relative to the current project and is a common way to make build scripts work regardless of the project path."
