I want to log all console output from my gradle script to log file:

gradle test 2>&1 | tee -a gradle.log

But my gradle script prompts param from user:

task test << {
        System.console().readLine("Enter:").toString()
}

As a result, I have a NullPointerException:

Execution failed for task ':test'. Cannot invoke method readLine() on null object

May be somebody know a solution or workaround for this situation?

  • Is this at all related to logging the console output? From what I remember, `System.console()` may not be available in a Gradle build script, at least not when using the Gradle daemon. – Peter Niederwieser Nov 27 '14 at 12:35

What about:

yes <desired input> | gradle test 2>&1 | tee -a gradle.log

yes just repeditively echos whatever it's argument is to stdout
