     The task written is build.gradle is

     task buildDocker(type: Docker, dependsOn: build) {
    applicationName = 'api'
    dockerfile = file('src/docker/Dockerfile')
    doFirst {
        copy {
            from file('src/docker')
            from war
            into stageDir
        }
    }
}

  • monkey-patch the plugin with a fix
  • use a different plugin that is not unmaintained and is compatible with the Gradle version you use
