The purpose of this plugin is to allow the use of the Gradle dependency resolution but with the dependencies saved as part of the project.
To achieve this it adds the task downloadDependencies that downloads all dependencies - libraries, sources, javadocs and maven poms (including parents) - into a local repository that follows the maven structure for the root project and all subprojects.
If the task graph doesn’t include the task downloadDependencies, the plugin will replace the specified repositories with the local repository.
The intended workflow is
-
to execute
downloadDependencieswhenever the dependencies have changed, -
to add the changes to the local repository to the version control system
-
and after that transparently use the local repository for dependency resolution.
Usually all it takes to use the plugin is to add it to the buildscript dependencies and apply it.
buildscript {
repositories {
jcenter()
}
dependencies {
classpath 'net.idlestate:gradle-download-dependencies-plugin:1.+'
}
}
apply plugin: 'net.idlestate.download-dependencies'
apply plugin: 'java'
repositories {
mavenLocal()
mavenCentral()
jcenter()
}
dependencies {
// dependencies of your project
}
// ...The plugin can be configured by the extension downloadDependencies. It takes a file into localRepository to change the path of the local maven repository from the default "${rootProject.projectDir}/gradle/repository".
// ...
downloadDependencies {
localRepository = file( 'alternative/path/to/repository' )
}
// ...
