Its obvious what the issue is
Using TaskInputs.file() with something that doesn't resolve to a File object has been deprecated and is scheduled to be removed in Gradle 5.0. Use TaskInputs.files() instead

but I can't find that file/class function to add the 's'

[thePerfesser]

Don't forget sudo.
sudo ./gradlew build

[tunage]

this is not a sudo issue.
yes I used sudo. I also tried as root
this is a version (somebody's code is out of date) issue.
It could be my system, if they used some brand spanking new library.
I don't think so.
My system is freshly updated so, dev is going to have to tell us what is going on.

They appear to be on Gradle 4.6 , my syste has Gradle 2.10, so this error has me at a loss
https://gradle.org/releases/

[lky1001]

in my case,
gradle 4.0
jvm 1.8.0_161
working well

[dbriggsie]

Yes more likely that your Java Is incorrect.

Are you using OpenJDK?

[LingTian]

This issue is caused by java version & gradle not matched.
Fix it through following steps.

cd gradle
cd wrapper
cat gradle-wrapper.properties

We can see the gradle version is 4.0 as following.

#Tue Mar 06 21:13:26 CST 2018
distributionBase=GRADLE_USER_HOME
distributionPath=wrapper/dists
zipStoreBase=GRADLE_USER_HOME
zipStorePath=wrapper/dists
distributionUrl=https://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-4.0-all.zip

use nano to change the version to:
distributionUrl=https://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-4.7-all.zip

try ./gradlew build again, we see:
BUILD SUCCESSFUL.

I fixed it in #224
