I am new to Gradle and I followed the instructions of a tutorial, just that instead of maven I chose Gradle in Spring.Initializr.
It produced following code for the build.gradle
plugins {
id 'org.springframework.boot' version '2.6.3'
id 'io.spring.dependency-management' version '1.0.11.RELEASE'
id 'java'
}
group = 'com.microservicetest'
version = '0.0.1-SNAPSHOT'
sourceCompatibility = '11'
repositories {
mavenCentral()
}
ext {
set('springCloudVersion', "2021.0.0")
}
// https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.springframework.cloud/spring-cloud-dependencies
import group: 'org.springframework.cloud', name: 'spring-cloud-dependencies', version: '2021.0.0', ext: 'pom'
dependencies {
implementation 'org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-web'
implementation 'org.springframework.cloud:spring-cloud-config-server'
implementation 'org.springframework.cloud:spring-cloud-starter-netflix-eureka-server'
developmentOnly 'org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-devtools'
testImplementation 'org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-test'
}
dependencyManagement {
imports {
mavenBom "org.springframework.cloud:spring-cloud-dependencies:${springCloudVersion}"
}
}
tasks.named('test') {
useJUnitPlatform()
}
I receive the error message
Could not compile build file '/home/max/IdeaProjects/Restaurant Rating App/build.gradle'.
> startup failed:
build file '/home/max/IdeaProjects/Restaurant Rating App/build.gradle': 20: Unexpected input: ':' @ line 20, column 13.
import group: 'org.springframework.cloud', name: 'spring-cloud-dependencies', version: '2021.0.0', ext: 'pom'
What is wrong with the autogenerated code?
Thanks!

The build.gradle
in your question matches the expected output from start.spring.io except these two lines:
// https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.springframework.cloud/spring-cloud-dependencies
import group: 'org.springframework.cloud', name: 'spring-cloud-dependencies', version: '2021.0.0', ext: 'pom'
This is not valid Gradle syntax. Simply removing them will fix the issue at hand.
