== Step 0. Before you Begin

1. Make sure you have <<installation.adoc#installation,Gradle installed>>.

2. Install link:https://www.jetbrains.com/idea/download/[IntelliJ IDEA].
The Community Edition is a free version of IntelliJ IDEA.

$ gradle wrapper

include::{snippetsPath}/wrapper/simple/tests/wrapperCommandLine.out[]

[TIP]
====
To make the Wrapper files available to other developers and execution environments, you need to check them into version control.
Wrapper files, including the JAR file, are small.
Adding the JAR file to version control is expected.

You can implement a custom task type if Gradle does not provide a task type that meets your build logic needs.

To create a custom task class, you extend link:{javadocPath}/org/gradle/api/DefaultTask.html[`DefaultTask`] and make the extending class abstract:

====
[.multi-language-sample]
=====
.app/build.gradle.kts
[source,kotlin]
----
abstract class MyCopyTask extends DefaultTask {

}
----
=====

  ## Add new policies as explained here https://min.io/docs/minio/kubernetes/upstream/administration/identity-access-management.html#access-management
  ## NOTE: this will fail if LDAP is enabled in your MinIO deployment
  ## make sure to disable this if you are using LDAP.
  - accessKey: console
    secretKey: console123
    policy: consoleAdmin
  # Or you can refer to specific secret
  #- accessKey: externalSecret

To let Gradle know that we are implementing a task, we extend the `DefaultTask` class that comes with Gradle.
It's also beneficial to make our task class `abstract` because Gradle will handle many things automatically:

====
[.multi-language-sample]
=====
.buildSrc/src/main/kotlin/GenerateReportTask.kt
[source,kotlin]

A <<build_environment.adoc#sec:gradle_configuration_properties,Gradle property>> that specifies the host address to listen on or connect to when debug is enabled.
In the server mode on Java 9 and above, passing `*` for the host will make the server listen on all network interfaces.
By default, no host address is passed to JDWP, so on Java 9 and above, the loopback address is used, while earlier versions listen on all interfaces.

Usually, a simple `build` task invocation should do the trick to validate your build logic.
However, some builds may need additional verification — understand the behavior of your build and make sure you have a good verification plan.

5. [[task_configuration_avoidance_guideline_prefer_automatic_testing]] **Prefer automatic testing to manual testing.** +

This final value replaces the provider and the property no longer tracks the value of the provider.
Calling this method also makes a property instance unmodifiable and any further attempts to change the value of the property will fail.
Gradle automatically makes the properties of a task final when the task starts execution.

[[sec:plugin_conventions]]
== Adding default configuration with conventions

Plugins should provide sensible defaults and standards in a specific context, reducing the number of decisions users need to make.
Using the `project` object, you can define default values.
These are known as *conventions*.

Conventions are properties that are initialized with default values and can be overridden by the user in their build script.
