Gradle plugin to run an embedded h2 server

Gradle H2 Plugin

This plugin provides the capability of running and populating an embedded H2 database as part of a gradle build, perfect for integration testing with embedded web containers.

Usage

To use the h2 plugin, include your in buildscript:

apply plugin: 'h2'

The plugin jars need to be defined in the classpath of your buildscript. You can either get the plugin jar and pom from the github download section or upload it to your own repository. Here's how you'd include it if resolving against github directly.

buildscript {
    repositories {
        add(new org.apache.ivy.plugins.resolver.URLResolver()) {
            name = 'GitHub'
            addArtifactPattern 'http://cloud.github.com/downloads/[organisation]/[module]/[module]-[revision].[ext]'
        }
    }

    dependencies {
        classpath 'jamescarr:h2-gradle-plugin:0.8.0'
        classpath 'com.h2database:h2:1.3.164'  // choose your own version
    }
}

Defining h2 configuration and database named 'example'

h2 {
	tcpPort = 9092
	webPort = 8082
	
	example {
		scripts = [
		     'src/test/resources/cars.sql'
		   , 'src/test/resources/init-data.sql'
		]
	}
}

the inner closure databaseName will create a database with that name and populate it with scripts defined by the script variable. You can have multiple database closures that will create multiple databases.

apply plugin: 'h2'

h2 {
	tcpPort = 9092
	webPort = 8082
	
	one {
		scripts = [
		     'src/test/resources/cars.sql'
		   , 'src/test/resources/init-data.sql'
		]
	}
	
	two {
		scripts = [
		     'src/test/resources/boats.sql'
		   , 'src/test/resources/init-data.sql'
		]
	}
}

Using with jettyRun

jettyRun.doFirst {
  h2start.execute()
}

Using with tomcatRun

tomcatRun.doFirst {
  h2start.execute()
}
