Mistake in Gradle README?

[benmccann]

Issue Description

I'm trying out the Gradle plugin, but having some difficulty.

Steps to Reproduce

Create a Gradle project with the sample configuration from the README: https://github.com/kobylynskyi/graphql-java-codegen/tree/master/plugins/gradle#buildgradle

outputDir = "$buildDir/generated/graphql"

Expected Result

Expected project to successfully build

Actual Result

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

* What went wrong:
A problem occurred evaluating root project 'micronaut-example'.
> Cannot cast object 'build/generated/graphql' with class 'org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.GStringImpl' to class 'java.io.File'

Your Environment and Setup

• graphql-java-codegen: 1.7.0
• Build tool: Gradle 6.3
• Java tool: 1.8

Additional context

Something else I noticed is that I'd expect there to be a default value for outputDir. The readme says the the default is None, so does that mean the plugin does nothing unless you set it?

@benmccann thanks for reporting this!
README was fixed.
And yes, outputDir is the mandatory field.

[benmccann]

Thanks! One more question. Is it right that these directories in the README don't match each other?

   outputDir = new File("$buildDir/generated/graphql")
sourceSets.main.java.srcDir "$buildDir/generated"

@benmccann It is fixed now. Thanks!
Please let me know if you will see some more inconsistencies.
