Minor mode for emacs to run gradle from emacs and not have to go to a terminal!

Installation

Available on MELPA:

M-x package-install gradle-mode

Or you can just dump gradle-mode.el in your load path somewhere.

After installation, you can configure this mode to always be on with:

(require 'gradle-mode)

(gradle-mode 1)

Or just

M-x gradle-mode

when you are ready to use it.

Keybindings

• C-c C-g b
  • run gradle build
• C-c C-g t
  • run gradle test
• C-c C-g s
  • run gradle test -Dsingle.test="user-supplied"
  • User supplies test to run from prompt
• C-c C-g C-d b
  • run gradle build --daemon
• C-c C-g C-d t
  • run gradle test --daemon
• C-c C-g C-d s
  • run gradle -Dsingle.test="user-supplied" --daemon
  • User supplies test to run from prompt
• C-c C-g d
  • run gradle "user-supplied" --daemon
  • User supplies tasks to run from prompt
• C-c C-g r
  • run gradle "user-supplied"
  • User supplies tasks to run from prompt

The prefix C-d runs the command with gradle's daemon, or creates one if it is not already present.

Limitations

Currently, the only versions of emacs that are passing are 24.3. I plan on trying to look into it more, but both Travis and drone are barfing when I try and run the tests with <24.3.

emacs-gradle-mode's Issues

gradelw is not working with emacs 24+?

I have been trying to get this to work for a couple of days now with no luck. It looks like locate-dominating-file is not supported anymore! I tried porting it from other sources with no luck!

Binding C-g causes issues

C-g is supposed to be reserved for quitting an interaction with emacs. Binding it in a key sequence causes at least these issues:

• C-h k doesn't work for any such key bindings
• Sometimes pressing the key sequence fails with a bizarre C-c C-g <mouse-movement> is undefined error in the modeline. (This should not be possible, because mouse movements are usually ignored, but somehow it's happening.)

Can you change the standard keybinding to something more compatible?

Create single project?

I have just discovered this repository, as it's grails-mode has entered MELPA. There is also
https://github.com/russel/Emacs-Groovy-Mode the groovy-mode of which is in MELPA, but the grails-mode of which was never picked up. Given E-Lisp activity in the Groovy/Grails community is strictly limited and it would be best to focus where the activity is, should this repository become the new focus of all Groovy Emacs activity?

Major mode for syntax highlighting *.gradle files?

I don't care about launching or connecting to gradle from Emacs, I just want to edit *.gradle files and have basic syntax highlighting. Could there be a major mode for doing this?
