Gradle plugin that adds a 'taskTree' task that prints task dependency tree

Gradle Task Tree

Gradle plugin that adds a taskTree task that prints task dependency tree report to the console.

The task dependency tree is printed with a similar format to that of the built-in dependencies task.

Installation

The plugin can be configured in an initialization script or in the build script.

It is also deployed on Gradle Plugin Portal.

Build Script Snippet

plugins {
    id "com.dorongold.task-tree" version "1.2.1"
}

Usage

gradle <task 1>...<task N> taskTree

When one of the tasks given to the gradle command is taskTree, execution of all the other tasks on that line is skipped. Instead, their task dependency tree is printed.

Examples

gradle build taskTree

Some functionality is based on gradle-visteg plugin - a plugin that creates an image with a DAG representation of the task tree.
