Explain how to use `extraFilesDirectories` in gradle #1026

Open stickfigure opened 1 week ago

Hi! There seems to be something missing from the documentation. There's an extraFilesDirectories attribute in the gradle plugin but I can't figure out how we're supposed to use it?

My goal is to use the gradle application plugin-built install directory and startup script on GAE, without building a fat jar.

Looks like this was handled in maven-land already? https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/app-maven-plugin/issues/399

Thanks for raising this. IIUC the above correctly it seems to be a gap in documentation between maven and gradle. We'll update the docs in the gradle plugin to include this (or possibly move these maven and gradle configs to a plugin-neutral place).
