GoCD task plugin skeleton

This is merely a skeleton plugin that plugin developers can fork to get quickly started with writing task plugins for GoCD. It works out of the box, but you should change it to do something besides executing curl.

All the documentation is hosted at https://plugin-api.gocd.io/current/tasks.

Getting started

• Edit the file build.gradle to change the plugin id, description and some other metadata.
• Edit the file settings.gradle to change the name of this project.
• Edit the GetConfigRequest.java class to add any configuration fields that should be shown in the view.
• Edit the TaskConfig.java file which contains the model for your task configuration.
• Edit the task.template.html file which contains the view for the plugin settings page of your plugin.
• Edit the ValidateRequest.java class to perform validation of the task configuration as performed by a user.
• Edit the ExecuteRequest.java and CurlTaskExecutor.java class to execute the task, and pipe stdout/stderr correctly.

Building the code base

To build the jar, run ./gradlew clean test assemble
