You can pass the inner closure to your upload
method as the final parameter. Set the delegate to the original builder delegate so the inner closure calls get handled properly. For example:
def upload(remoteBuildProperties, folder, body) {
ant {
taskdef(name: 'ftp',
classname: 'org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.optional.net.FTP',
classpath: configurations.ftpAntTask.asPath)
ftp(server: remoteBuildProperties['host.name'],
userid: remoteBuildProperties['username'],
password: remoteBuildProperties['password'],
remotedir: folder,
passive: 'true') {
body.delegate = delegate
body()
}
}
}
