Gradle DSL for Grails 3.x

Question

Does anybody know where to find the documentation for Grails 3.x's Gradle DSL?

I have seen it referenced, e.g in a separate post -> Disable reloading in Grails 3.1 / springloaded

However, can't find it in the docs, and the Grails Gradle plugin sites

https://github.com/grails/grails-gradle-plugin

http://grails.github.io/grails-gradle-plugin/docs/manual/

seems relevant only for the 2.x versions of Grails.

Edit

To be more clear.

What I'm looking for is the configuration options available within the grails block in a build.gradle script.

grails {
  //which options are available here??
}

E.g. I know this specific config works, as it is mentioned in the post linked above

grails {
    agent {
        enabled = false
    }
}

However, these config options are not documented anywhere (where I can find them)

Are you looking for this: https://docs.gradle.org/current/dsl/ ? — Michal_Szulc, Feb 09 '16 at 15:30
No, that's Gradle's own DSL. I'm looking for the DSL for Grails. E.g. spring-boot provides documentation for their Gradle plugin - https://docs.spring.io/spring-boot/docs/current/reference/html/build-tool-plugins-gradle-plugin.html - as does Jacoco - https://docs.gradle.org/current/userguide/jacoco_plugin.html. So basically I'm interested in the grails {} block within a gradle script. (and possibly other config blocks related to Grails) — runeaen, Feb 10 '16 at 13:50

Unfortunately, plugin documentation is still in (slow) progress. But you can see the available properties and respective docs in the plugin javadoc, starting at the GrailsExtension class:
https://grails.github.io/grails-gradle-plugin/latest/api/org/grails/gradle/plugin/core/GrailsExtension.html

Currently they are:

GrailsExtension.Agent agent Configure the reloading agent
boolean exploded Whether to include subproject dependencies as directories directly on the classpath, instead of as JAR files
boolean native2ascii Whether to invoke native2ascii on resource bundles
boolean native2asciiAnt Whether to use Ant to do the conversion
boolean packageAssets Whether assets should be packaged in META-INF/assets for plugins
boolean pathingJar Whether to create a jar file to reference the classpath to prevent classpath too long issues in Windows
