I have simple java (Gradle) project which depends on several JARs, obtained automatically from Maven repositories.
Now I wish to call my jar with external application (MATLAB). Unfortunately, application does not see any dependencies after I call build
, jar
and similar goals.
Me myself also don't know dependencies, since they are managed automatically with Gradle and may contain nested dependencies, not listed in build.gradle
.
Is it possible to collect all required JARs in one place to run them freely?
You can write a custom task to collect your runtime dependencies into a jar
task copyToLib(type: Copy) {
into "$buildDir/libs"
from configurations.runtime
}
You could also look into the application and distribution gradle plugins, that provide similar packaging and distribution functionality
