Gradlectl or shorter gctl is a simple app that helps view and manage Gradle processes.
Example output:

Just gctl or gctl <arguments>.
When no argument is specified, Gradlectl will print all Gradle Jvm processes.
Arguments:
| Arguments | description |
|---|---|
| no argument | Prints all Gradle Jvm processes |
| -t | Continuously prints all Gradle Jvm processes until stopped |
| killall | Kills all Gradle Jvm processes |
| kill <pid> | Kills process with pid "pid" |
| tree <pid> | Prints a process tree of a process with pid "pid" |
| help | Prints help message |
git clone https://github.com/asodja/gradlectl.gitcd gradlectl./gradlew install: this will install a distribution to<path to gradlectl project>/distribution- Add alias to a shell startup script (e.g. .zshrc, .bashrc etc.) to path of the distribution, or add the distribution path to
$PATH
Example of an alias for MacOS:
alias gctl="/Users/user/workspace/gradlectl/distribution/bin/gctl"
Note: You can also modify the distribution installation directory with gctl.install.dir Gradle property or System property.
Gradlectl has to be run with Java 11 or later.
Gradlectl finds active JVMs via network on 127.0.0.1 (localhost). On macOS such calls can be slow.
To speed up the execution, add your machine local hostname to /etc/hosts, like:
127.0.0.1 localhost <hostname>
::1 localhost <hostname>
where <hostname> is value provided by hostname command.
