(Android Studio) build yields no images in `res/`

[Goutte]

Following the doc, I added

buildscript {
    repositories {
        jcenter()
    }

    dependencies {
        classpath 'com.tmiyamon:gradle-mdicons:0.2.3'
    }
}

repositories {
    jcenter()
}

apply plugin: 'com.android.application'
apply plugin: 'com.tmiyamon.mdicons'

mdicons {
    pattern '(refresh|search)_white_24dp'
}

to my build.grade.

When I build, I observe the directory ~/.material_design_icons being created and deleted shortly after. The .mdicons file is created just fine. I tried other patterns, too. No images. Hmmm. I even tried to chmod my src/main/res, to no avail.

I cannot find an error message. I am using Android Studio 1.1.0 to build my project.

Here's the full build.gradle :

    dependencies {

    }
}

repositories {
    jcenter()
}

apply plugin: 'com.android.application'
apply plugin: 'com.tmiyamon.mdicons'

mdicons {
    pattern '.+'
}

I figured out that git failed its clone because it asked me for my RSA key password.

I cloned the repository myself $ git clone [email protected]:google/material-design-icons.git /home/antoine/.material_design_icons, and now I have the following :

18:16:49.783 [ERROR] [org.gradle.BuildExceptionReporter] Caused by: org.gradle.api.internal.MissingMethodException: Could not find method eachIconFiles() for arguments [/home/antoine/.material_design_icons, [action, alert, av, communication, content, device, editor, file, hardware, image, maps, navigation, notification, social, toggle], (report_black_24dp), com.tmiyamon.MaterialDesignIconsPlugin$_apply_closure3_closure8_closure16@31d748c1] on task ':app:mdiconsCopyIconsByPatterns'.

I can see that the method exists, though.

I really like that lib and I don't want to have to code my own support for the material design icons. What am I doing wrong ?

I installed groovy (you never know), but the same error crops up.

I tried using groups :

mdicons {
    group name: "user|camera", color: 'red', size: '18dp'
}

There's no error, but no images are copied.

:disappointed:

If anyone bumps into the same errors and cannot solve them, there's a nice python script that does the job. It's not as sexy as hooking gradle, but it works !

I'm throwing the towel on this issue.

Thank you for your trying my plugin. I set up linux environment and confirmed the reproducing. Now I'm investigating its cause but it seems to need a while to find it.

I can confirm this as well in 0.2.3 0.2.2 works fine though
