Dependencies from Gradle/Maven
gregopet opened this issue · comments
Feature suggestion: it would be nice to be able to pull in all Gradle/Maven dependencies of a project by "loading" the build file 😄
@gregopet could you clarify a bit, please? Doesn't :dependsOn work for you?
I assume gregopet means to support import of type "pom" and which also brings in the transitive dependencies, I tried this myself with no luck
Wow, we didn't even have such an idea! Could you please describe your workflow? To be more precise: why is it not enough to just add regular (jar) dependencies?
Hmm, sorry, Seems I was confused you can only import manager dependencies with a Pom import.
What would be nice is to import project X and automatically have all of project X's transitive dependencies in so I don't have to manually import them all myself.
Then I could put together a script super quickly.
Like "If I open ki inside project X I want to get all the configuration of this project"?
Yeah, that sounds good, import the project Pom file and take it from there.
I believe that currently, it's an extremely complex task requiring building a big part of IntelliJ IJDEA into ki: in the general case, it's very hard to even find all gradle dependencies.
Ah ok, I thought as KI uses some eclipse maven tools that it could be possible for maven to get the transitive dependencies and do it that way. No biggie, thanks for creating this awesome tool
Sorry to say this, but no :( It includes a small subset of Maven responsible for downloading dependencies.
Yes, what @scottysinclair wrote was the idea. To have an environment set up like my project to test, prototype, experiment or even interact with a running instance easily 😃
Thanks for the tool from me as well!
Can't we have a gradle task that finds all dependencies of a project through ./gradlew dependencies and then uses that to start a kotlin ki repl? Should be doable.
