gather-dependencies-gradle-plugin

A Gradle Plugin which resolves all the dependencies of a project and places them into a directory.

Development

Generate Gradle wrapper:

$ gradle wrapper

Publish to Maven Local:

$ ./gradlew publishToMavenLocal

Run tests:

$ ./gradlew test

Usage

Applying the plugin

# build.gradle
plugins {
    id 'io.shiftleft.gather-dependencies' version '<version>'
 }

# build.gradle.kts
plugins {
    id("io.shiftleft.gather-dependencies") version "<version>"
}

Plugin configuration

The plugin accepts two configuration values: outputDirectory and configurationName.

outputDirectory allows you to specify the path to a directory in which the dependencies will be placed. Pointing to a new path will create the directory.

configurationName allows you to specify a Gradle configuration from which to copy the dependencies.

Examples:

#...build.gradle
gatherDependencies {
    outputDirectory = "$buildDir/gatheredDependencies"
    configurationName = 'default'
}

#...build.gradle.kts
gatherDependencies {
    outputDirectory.set("$buildDir/gatheredDependencies")
    configurationName.set("default")
}

Try locally

1. Publish plugin to local maven repository

2. Run gatherDependencies task for the SlimAndroid test project:

$ cd examples/springboot-kotlin-webgoat
$ gradle wrapper
$ ./gradlew gatherDependencies
$ find build/gatheredDependencies -name "*jar" | wc -l
