gradle Dependencies Add a Dependency
Example
Dependencies in Gradle follow the same format as Maven. Dependencies are structured as follows:
group:name:version
Here's an example:
'org.springframework:spring-core:4.3.1.RELEASE'
To add as a compile-time dependency, simply add this line in your dependency block in the Gradle build file:
compile 'org.springframework:spring-core:4.3.1.RELEASE'
An alternative syntax for this names each component of the dependency explicitly, like so:
compile group: 'org.springframework', name: 'spring-core', version: '4.3.1.RELEASE'
This adds a dependency at compile time.
You can also add dependencies only for tests. Here's an example:
testCompile group: 'junit', name: 'junit', version: '4.+'
