How to convert a SVG to a PNG in a gradle build script.

build.gradle

configurations {
    rasterizer
}
dependencies {
    rasterizer 'org.apache.xmlgraphics:batik-rasterizer:1.7'
    rasterizer 'org.apache.xmlgraphics:batik-codec:1.7'
}
task svg2png(type: org.gradle.api.tasks.JavaExec) {
    classpath configurations.rasterizer
    main "org.apache.batik.apps.rasterizer.Main"
    // -scriptSecurityOff required as the security manager of batik would interfere with the security manager of gradle
    args "-scriptSecurityOff", "-d", "src/main/resources/images/splash.png", "-m", "image/png", "src/graphics/splash/splash-release.svg"
}
