These scripts are hosted on GitHub for the purposes of allowing direct apply from use from the web, or cloning of this repository to your local disk as a collection of useful Gradle add-ons.
In your Gradle build file, simply path to one of the scripts in its raw form as follows:
apply from: 'https://raw.github.com/matthewmccullough/gradle-applyfrom-scripts/master/printclasspath/printclasspath.gradle'
JIRA tickets and the Cookbook are the primary sources of inspiration for these scripts.
Community contributions to these scripts are welcomed. They are, in short, like an amplified and working version of cookbook materials. Cookbooks are great, but they facilitate copy-and-paste coding. I'd rather see the prescribed solutions in a cookbook put into executable form where we can fork, fix, and commit changes to them over time.
