– specifies jvmargs used for daemon process.Long story short, daemon means reusing things in subsequent builds – should be set to true to take advantage of Gradle daemon.This essentially means you always override project’s properties by your system-wide options. If an option is specified twice, the last one wins. On Windows look in C:).įirst Gradle reads all project-wide options, followed by system-wide options. gradle folder in your HOME directory – ~/.gradle/gradle.properties. Project-wide settings for your gradle build are kept in gradle.properties file in your project’s root folder. We’ll cover only some options – the ones that are the most important from the performance standpoint. Gradle is extremely complex build system and as such it can be configured extensively. And update it periodically! Configure Gradle properly To install gradle locally, refer to official website, or use packet manager like Macports or Homebrew. This way you can benefit from the latest performance improvements while not having to modify (possibly someone else’s) project’s gradle wrapper. System-wideĭespite gradle wrapper being the preferred method of running gradle builds, for non-production builds consider using locally installed gradle distribution.
wrapper task is preferred, though, since it also updates the wrapper jar file as well as gradlew scripts. You can update gradle wrapper from Android Studio as well – open ProjectStructure dialog and update Gradle version field in Project tab. Also, consider periodically removing old versions leftovers from `.gradle` folder inside your project. This will download specified gradle distribution into wrapper files. To update the gradle wrapper for your project, simply run wrapper task: Unless it breaks your build – and it shouldn’t – update. Android Studio keeps generating gradle wrapper that is ages behind – Android Studio 2.3 Canary 2 still uses version 2.14.1 – already few months old as of writing this article. Gradle keeps getting faster and faster with each release, and it rarely makes sense to use older version. Here are some methods that we at Tooploox employ to spend more time creating great apps, and less time building them. Nobody likes to wait endlessly for their projects to build.
