How to specify the entry point, Main-Class, for a FatJar using Gradle Kotlin DSL?

Question

How do I specify the Main-Class attribute in the ShadowJar once it's imported?

import org.jetbrains.kotlin.gradle.tasks.KotlinCompile
import com.github.jengelman.gradle.plugins.shadow.tasks.ShadowJar

plugins {
    kotlin("jvm") version "1.2.51"
    id("com.github.johnrengelman.shadow") version "2.0.4"
}

group = "xxx.yyy"
version = "1.0-SNAPSHOT"

repositories {
    mavenCentral()
}

dependencies {
    implementation(kotlin("stdlib-jdk8"))
}

tasks.withType<KotlinCompile> {
    kotlinOptions.jvmTarget = "1.8"
}

tasks.withType<ShadowJar> {
    baseName = "app"
    classifier = "inajar"
    version = "9"
    //main-class = "foobar"
}

Also, this build file might be out of date:

thufir@dur:~/NetBeansProjects/HelloKotlinWorld$ 
thufir@dur:~/NetBeansProjects/HelloKotlinWorld$ gradle clean ShadowJar

build file:

import org.jetbrains.kotlin.gradle.tasks.KotlinCompile
import com.github.jengelman.gradle.plugins.shadow.tasks.ShadowJar

plugins {
    kotlin("jvm") version "1.2.51"
    id("com.github.johnrengelman.shadow") version "2.0.4"
}

group = "xxx.yyy"
version = "1.0-SNAPSHOT"

repositories {
    mavenCentral()
}

dependencies {
    implementation(kotlin("stdlib-jdk8"))
}

tasks.withType<KotlinCompile> {
    kotlinOptions.jvmTarget = "1.8"
}

tasks.withType<ShadowJar> {

    manifest.attributes.apply {
        put("Implementation-Title", "Gradle Jar File Example")
        //put("Implementation-Version" version)
        put("Main-Class", "HelloKotlinWorld.App")
    }


    baseName = "app"
    classifier = "inajar"
    version = "9"
}

runs:

thufir@dur:~/NetBeansProjects/HelloKotlinWorld$ 
thufir@dur:~/NetBeansProjects/HelloKotlinWorld$ gradle clean ShadowJar

Hello world.
thufir@dur:~/NetBeansProjects/HelloKotlinWorld$ 

But I think it might be an out-of-date approach given the warning.
