I have a shell script which I want to call from within gradle. The shell script takes optarg like arguments which have to passed to the command line with -P arguments of gradle but I have been unable to think of a better way to do this.

My script is called as below:

./script.ksh -a arg1 -b arg2

My gradle task looks like below

task Build(type: Exec ) {
        workingDir rootProject.projectDir.path
        executable rootProject.projectDir.path + "/script.ksh"
}

I have tried using "args" but couldn't get this working.

What I am looking for is trying to pass these arguments to gradle in the below format

gradle build ARG1 ARG2

Is the gradle call inside the shell script? Also, which gradle version? – frhd Sep 14 '15 at 08:24
@fhrd no no, gradle call is at the prompt. gradle is calling the script from build.gradle. – Prasoon Sep 14 '15 at 09:44
