Executing bash script in gradle

Question

I am doing functional testing with geb.

My application is deployed using virgo and uses HSQLDB to store data. I would like to perform tests on this working version o

Answer 1

That's weird

I created a task

task callCL(type: Exec) {
    commandLine './cl.sh'
}

that calls cl.sh file

#!/bin/sh
echo "starting "
./acl.sh &
sleep 10
./acl.sh &

that call acl.sh

#!/bin/sh
echo "I am not doing anything"

and it worked! but one thing though, when you add ./acl.sh ampersand character & you're calling the task from a different thread that started gradle, and kinda looks like it's hanging. I would remove the & from your calls to shutdown and start like this

#!/bin/sh
rm -rf $VIRGO_HOME/aresdb*
$VIRGO_HOME/bin/shutdown.sh
$VIRGO_HOME/bin/startup.sh

anyways you want to wait in the same thread from shutdown to start, and no need to call sleep too!
