Task "updateSQL" ignores "--outputFile" parameter about liquibase-gradle-plugin HOT 3 CLOSED

Is the issue with the generateSQL task?

If so, then this isn't a gradle plugin issue because your task doesn't use the plugin - it calls Liquibase directly.

You said that there was no file, but that when you left out the output file, it gave you SQL on the console. That makes me wonder if the SQL script is being generated, just in a different location. I don't know why it works differently calling liquibase from the CLI vs a JavaExec. The only things I can think of is argument order or classpath differences.

Yes, the issue is the generateSQL task.

I searched the whole hard drive but couldn't find the generated file anywhere.

Since it works when I'm using the CLI I assumed it should also work when calling it directly. Furthermore when I change the parameter name to something other than --outputFile (i.e. --output-file), an error occurs. So it appears to be parsed successfully but then discarded.

I switched to using the Docker image.
