gbevin

Version 2.0 of bld is now available!

There are many improvements and feature additions, most notably a brand new dedicated plugin for IntelliJ IDEA!

These are the changes in 2.0:

Added support for displaying extension dependencies in the dependency-tree command.
Added support for generating POM properties, projects with javaRelease specified automatically set the maven compiler properties in their POM at generation.
Added support for the provided scope by the PomBuilder class.
Added support for setting the bld build file java and javac options through bld-wrapper.properties.
Added support for outputting the list of bld commands as JSON in support for the bld IDEA plugin.
Added support for overriding dependency versions with properties throughout all of dependency resolution.
Added support for offline mode that will not access the internet for any reason.
Added implementation for generic versions to complement the existing numeric versions.
Improved artifact not found exception to explicitly mention that no repositories or no artifact locations are defined.
Improved bld execution, now exiting when an exception triggers during the execution of one of the commands in a chain.
Improved error reporting when online access is not available.
Improved built-in documentation.
Improved bld dependency caching, now also including the dependency tree output and consolidating everything into one file.
Upgraded project creation blueprint dependency versions.
Fix for classpath generation of bld wrapper, making sure sources and javadocs are not included.
Fixed one of the Dependency constructors not passing on exclusions.

All the extensions have also been updated:

The Kotlin extension has been completely reworked. It now compiles using a local installation of the Kotlin compiler, making it possible to test with multiple versions of Kotlin. Dokka now has its own extension. There's also a Kotlin project template on GitHub with support for the Dokka and Detekt extensions.
