public interface Script
```
This interface is implemented by all Gradle Groovy DSL scripts to add in some Gradle-specific methods. As your compiled script class will implement this interface, you can use the methods and properties declared by this interface directly in your script.

Generally, a Script object will have a delegate object attached to it. For example, a build script will have a Project instance attached to it, and an initialization script will have a Gradle instance attached to it. Any property reference or method call which is not found on this Script object is forwarded to the delegate object.

```
    Creates a new ConfigurableFileTree using the given base directory. The given baseDir path is evaluated as per file(Object).
    
    The returned file tree is lazy, so that it scans for files only when the contents of the file tree are queried. The file tree is also live, so that it scans for files each time the contents of the file tree are queried.
    
    Parameters:
    
    baseDir - The base directory of the file tree. Evaluated as per file(Object).
    
    Returns:
    
    the file tree. Never returns null.
  - fileTree
```
ConfigurableFileTree fileTree(Map<String,?> args)

```
 fileTree(dir:'src', excludes:['**/ignore/**','**/.svn/**'])
 
```
    The returned file tree is lazy, so that it scans for files only when the contents of the file tree are queried. The file tree is also live, so that it scans for files each time the contents of the file tree are queried.
    Parameters:
    
    args - map of property assignments to ConfigurableFileTree object
    
    Returns:
    
    the configured file tree. Never returns null.
  - fileTree
```
ConfigurableFileTree fileTree(Object baseDir,
                              Closure configureClosure)
```
    Creates a new ConfigurableFileTree using the given base directory. The given baseDir path is evaluated as per file(Object). The closure will be used to configure the new file tree. The file tree is passed to the closure as its delegate. Example:
```
 fileTree('src') {
    exclude '**/.svn/**'
 }.copy { into 'dest'}
 
```
    The returned file tree is lazy, so that it scans for files only when the contents of the file tree are queried. The file tree is also live, so that it scans for files each time the contents of the file tree are queried.
    Parameters:
    
    baseDir - The base directory of the file tree. Evaluated as per file(Object).
    
    configureClosure - Closure to configure the ConfigurableFileTree object.
    
    Returns:
    
    the configured file tree. Never returns null.
  - zipTree
```
FileTree zipTree(Object zipPath)
```
    Creates a new FileTree which contains the contents of the given ZIP file. The given zipPath path is evaluated as per file(Object). You can combine this method with the copy(groovy.lang.Closure) method to unzip a ZIP file.
    
    The returned file tree is lazy, so that it scans for files only when the contents of the file tree are queried. The file tree is also live, so that it scans for files each time the contents of the file tree are queried.
    
    Parameters:
    
    zipPath - The ZIP file. Evaluated as per file(Object).
    
    Returns:
    
    the file tree. Never returns null.
  - tarTree
```
FileTree tarTree(Object tarPath)
```
    Creates a new FileTree which contains the contents of the given TAR file. The given tarPath path can be:
    - an instance of Resource
    - any other object is evaluated as per file(Object)
    The returned file tree is lazy, so that it scans for files only when the contents of the file tree are queried. The file tree is also live, so that it scans for files each time the contents of the file tree are queried.
    Unless custom implementation of resources is passed, the tar tree attempts to guess the compression based on the file extension.
    You can combine this method with the copy(groovy.lang.Closure) method to untar a TAR file:
```
 task untar(type: Copy) {
   from tarTree('someCompressedTar.gzip')

   //tar tree attempts to guess the compression based on the file extension
   //however if you must specify the compression explicitly you can:
   from tarTree(resources.gzip('someTar.ext'))

   //in case you work with unconventionally compressed tars
   //you can provide your own implementation of a ReadableResource:
   //from tarTree(yourOwnResource as ReadableResource)

   into 'dest'
 }
 
```
    Parameters:
    
    tarPath - The TAR file or an instance of Resource.
    
    Returns:
    
    the file tree. Never returns null.
  - copy
```
WorkResult copy(Closure closure)
```
    Copy the specified files. The given closure is used to configure a CopySpec, which is then used to copy the files. Example:
```
 copy {
    from configurations.runtimeClasspath
    into 'build/deploy/lib'
 }
 
```
    Note that CopySpecs can be nested:
```
 copy {
    into 'build/webroot'
    exclude '**/.svn/**'
    from('src/main/webapp') {
       include '**/*.jsp'
       filter(ReplaceTokens, tokens:[copyright:'2009', version:'2.3.1'])
