# Annotation Type InputArtifact

@Retention(RUNTIME) @Target(METHOD) @Documented @InjectionPointQualifier(supportedProviderTypes=FileSystemLocation.class) public @interface InputArtifact
Attach this annotation to an abstract getter that should receive the input artifact for an artifact transform. This is the artifact that the transform is applied to.

The abstract getter must be declared as type `Provider`<`FileSystemLocation`>.

Example usage:

    import org.gradle.api.artifacts.transform.TransformParameters;

    public abstract class MyTransform implements TransformAction<TransformParameters.None> {

        @InputArtifact
        public abstract Provider<FileSystemLocation> getInputArtifact();
        @Override
        public void transform(TransformOutputs outputs) {
            File input = getInputArtifact().get().getAsFile();
            // Do something with the input
        }
    }
