Hey new friends,

I want to start using Java Playwright with gradle as the build tool. The problem is that all the docs only use maven and I cannot find the gradle equvilent on the playwright website. Here is an example: mvn exec:java -e -D exec.mainClass=com.microsoft.playwright.CLI -D exec.args="show-trace trace.zip" How do I run this command in with gradle?

Thanks for you help 🙂

This thread is trying to answer question "How do I run a Java Playwright command with Gradle?"

plugins {
    application
    kotlin("jvm") version "1.8.0"
}

application {
    mainClass.set("com.microsoft.playwright.CLI")
}
./gradlew run --args="show-trace trace.zip"

something like this probably

task showTrace(type: JavaExec) {
    main = 'com.microsoft.playwright.CLI'
    args = ["show-trace", "trace.zip"]
    classpath = sourceSets.main.runtimeClasspath
}
./gradlew showTrace

or this
