Eclipse gradle Configuration

I. Introduction of Gradle

Gradle is based on the Groovy language and is oriented toward Java applications. Automated building tools based on DSL (domain-specific language) syntax.

Second, the configuration steps are as follows :

1. Download resources:

Grandle official website Download Gradle, address: http://www.gradle.org/downloads

Tip: If just run can download bin only, in order to expand the development or download all.

2, after downloading, unzip the zip to the installation directory, for example: D:\Program Files

3, set the environment variables, you need to set the following 2 environment variables

1. Add gradle_home to the root directory of the installation directory that points to Gradle

Gradle_home=d:\program files\gradle-2.0

2. Path variable add gradle Bin directory

D:\Program files\gradle-2.0\ Bin

4, the above steps are set, open cmd, run gradle-v see gradle version information, configuration completed.

5. Open Eclipse,help-->install new software, enter Http://dist.springsource.com/release/TOOLS/gradle

If the prompt cannot find the address, it is estimated that the wall dropped, need to FQ. If you find an address, select the installation and then continue to the next step until the installation is complete, and then restart Eclipse.

6. Create a Web project and create a Build.gradle file in the root directory

The contents of the Build.gradle file are as follows:ImportOrg.gradle.plugins.ide.eclipse.model.Facet

Apply plugin:' Maven '
Apply plugin:' Java '
Apply plugin:' War '
Apply plugin:' ECLIPSE-WTP '


Sourcecompatibility= 1.8//Set JDK version
Webappdirname = ' webcontent '//Setting the WebApp root directory
SourceSets.main.java.srcDir ' src '//set the directory where Java source code resides


//set MAVEN Library address
Repositories {
Mavencentral ()//Central Library
Maven {URL ' http://localhost:8081/nexus/content/groups/public '}//Custom Library Address
}


//Setting Dependencies
Dependencies {
Providedcompile' javax.servlet:servlet-api:2.5 '//Compile time
Providedruntime ' javax.servlet:jstl:1.2 '//Run-time
}


//set up Project Facets
Eclipse {
WTP {
Facet {
Facet Name:' Jst.web ', type:Facet.FacetType.fixed
Facet Name:' Wst.jsdt.web ', type:Facet.FacetType.fixed
Facet Name:' Jst.java ', type:Facet.FacetType.fixed
Facet Name:' Jst.web ', version: ' 2.5 '
Facet Name:' Jst.java ', version: ' 1.8 '
Facet Name:' Wst.jsdt.web ', Version: ' 1.0 '
}
}
}

Tip: The project has a G, under normal circumstances is not, you need to right-click the project "Configure->convert to Gradle project.", wait a moment OK, you can like I have this icon G,

Add Dependency Package: You need to right-click the project "Gradle->refresh All", "gradle->dependency->management".
