Spring Boot Gradle plugin: bootJar.enabled=false not working

[xmlking]

What is equivalent for bootRepackage.enabled=false for Spring Boot's latest Gradle plugin (2.0.0) ? bootJar.enabled=false is not working

More details:
gradle/kotlin-dsl-samples#488

I don't think we need two issues to track the same problem. Given that this works for you with earlier versions of Gradle and that the BootJar task inherits the enabled property from Gradle's AbstractTask, I am going to close this one in favour of the Gradle issue you also opened.

You may want to consider improving your build's configuration so that Spring Boot's plugin isn't applied to the shared project. It doesn't appear to be a Spring Boot application so applying the plugin is counter-productive. If you still wish to use Spring Boot's dependency management, you could import the spring-boot-dependencies bom using the dependency management plugin (which I see you are already using directly).

Agree. Looks like it is gradle kotlin DSL issue.
The following worked.

import org.gradle.api.tasks.bundling.Jar
import org.springframework.boot.gradle.tasks.bundling.BootJar

val jar: Jar by tasks
val bootJar: BootJar by tasks

bootJar.enabled = false
jar.enabled = true

I've been using it like this in latest build.gradle.kts in order to be able to compile to jar Spring Boot 2.x based library:

import org.jetbrains.kotlin.gradle.tasks.KotlinCompile
import org.springframework.boot.gradle.tasks.bundling.BootJar

tasks.getByName<BootJar>("bootJar") {
    enabled = false
}

tasks.getByName<Jar>("jar") {
    enabled = true
}

I tried some times and success finally! see below code:

plugins{
    base
    id("org.springframework.boot") version("2.3.4.RELEASE")
    id("io.spring.dependency-management") version ("1.0.7.RELEASE")
    kotlin("jvm") version("1.4.10")
    kotlin("plugin.spring") version("1.4.10")
}

tasks.bootJar {enabled = false}
tasks.jar {enabled = true}

group = "demo"
version="1.0"
allprojects {
    repositories {
        mavenCentral()
    }
}
subprojects {
    apply(plugin = "kotlin")
    apply(plugin = "org.springframework.boot")
    apply(plugin = "io.spring.dependency-management")

    dependencies {
        "implementation"("mysql:mysql-connector-java:5.1.38")
    }
}

project(":sub"){
    tasks.bootJar{ enabled = true }
}
