How do I extend gradle's clean task to delete a file?

Question

So far i\'ve added the following to my build.gradle

apply plugin: \'base\' 
clean << {
    delete \'${rootDir}/api-library/auto-generated-classes/\'
    pr         


        

Answer 1

Below one works for me (I prefer to use dependsOn),

task customCleanUp(type:Delete) {
   delete "your_folder", "your_file"
}

tasks.clean.dependsOn(tasks.customCleanUp)
