Unable to Build

[cjstehno]

I've encountered a similar issue and am including the output of a run with stacktrace and debug flags enabled in hopes that it's helpful:

output.txt

Here is the task I attempted to configure:

task refreshPlugins(type:HttpTask) {
    config {
        request.uri = 'https://artifactory.test.net/artifactory'
    }
    post {
        request.uri.path = '/api/plugins/reload'
        response.success {
            lifecycle.info 'Plugins reloaded on test instance.'
        }
    }
}

and my plugins block:

plugins {
  id 'groovy'
  id 'org.hidetake.ssh' version '2.9.0'
  id 'io.github.http-builder-ng.http-plugin' version '0.1.1'
}

@PFacheris - that other issue was spam, let's use this one for this problem.

I don't see any error or warning log messages in the log... what behavior are you seeing? HTTPS can be a bit finicky. Can you try using ignoreSslIssues as a test to see if it's related to that?

Oops, sorry about that. Missed an ampersand in my redirect of stderr to stdout, this should have the error output as well:
output_new.txt

I have same problem here. Any advice on this?

What version of Grade are you using, and what version of Java?

Hi. I found out that we need to provide the full qualified name of the HttpTask as follows:

task notify(type: io.github.httpbuilderng.http.HttpTask) {
    config {
        request.uri = 'http://something.com'
    }
    post {
      request.uri.path = '/notify'
      request.body = [event: 'activated']
      response.success {
      println 'The event notification was successful'
   }
} 

Maybe an extension "HttpTask" should be created by this plugin, referencing HttpTask.class, so that we can use task xx(type: HttpTask) {...} directly?

note: I use Gradle 4.9 with JDK8

If that's the case, an import should also work, which is pretty standard in Gradle build files.

I will leave this issue open and add some notes related to it in the documentation with the next release.

Thanks for digging into it.
