Newer versions of Groovy  1 7 2   offer a JDK extension to more easily traverse over files in a directory  for example   import static groovy io FileType FILES def dir   new File       def files       dir traverse type  FILES  maxDepth  0    files add it       See also  1  for more examples    1  http   mrhaki blogspot nl 2010 04 groovy-goodness-traversing-directory html

This is what I came up with for a gradle build script   task doLast       ext FindFile     list  curPath - gt          def files   file curPath  listFiles   sort            files each    File file - gt               if  file isFile                      list  lt  lt  file                           else                   list  lt  lt  file     If you want the directories in the list                  list   FindFile  list  file path                                   return list            def list          def theFile   FindFile list     project projectDir         list each           println it path

The following works for me in Gradle   Groovy for build gradle for an Android project  without having to import groovy io FileType  NOTE  Does not recurse subdirectories  but when I found this solution I no longer cared about recursion  so you may not either    FileCollection proGuardFileCollection   files   file    proguard   listFiles     proGuardFileCollection each       println  Proguard file located and processed      it
