How to debug dekoration problems?

[fsamir]

Hi there,
I have been trying to use dekorate with gradle and every so often it fails to generate kubernetes.yml with no explanation.
Is it possible to enable some sorting of verbose logging?

gradle clean build --debug doesn't display any relevant info about dekorate.

Thanks

Hi @fsamir, I am sorry to hear you are having issues with gradle.
At the moment dekorate doesn't log much (we are working on it see #38 ), so your best bet would be to enable stacktraces using something like --stacktrace.

I would gladly have a look at your project setup and try to identify possible issues.

Thanks, but unfortunately none of Gradle logging options were helpful.

In my case, Dekorate stopped running completely once I changed the default source folders, like:

sourceSets {
    main {
        java {
            srcDirs = [] // don't compile Java code twice
        }
        groovy {
            srcDirs = ['src/main/groovy', 'src/main/java']
        }
    }
    test {
        java {
            srcDirs = [] // don't compile Java code twice
        }
        groovy {
            srcDirs = ['src/test/groovy', 'src/test/java']
        }
    }
}```

Removing it fixes the problem.  I guess Dekorate is setup to hook to one of the default compilation steps and gets confused when they are overwritten.
