Root Cause

The 'deploy' task is not defined in the build script or is defined in a subproject that is not included.

generic

中文

构建脚本中未定义 'deploy' 任务，或者该任务定义在未包含的子项目中。

Workarounds

  1. 95% success Define the 'deploy' task in the build script 
    task deploy { doLast { println 'Deploying...' } }
  2. 90% success Check the available tasks and use an existing one like 'publish' 
    gradle tasks --group build

Dead Ends

Common approaches that don't work:

  1. Creating a custom task with the same name but no implementation 80% fail

    The task will do nothing and may cause confusion.

  2. Running the task in a different subproject 70% fail

    The task may not exist there either, or it may be the wrong one.
