I am trying to set up multimodule project
RootProject Settings
rootProject.name = 'Abc'
include 'catalog'
include 'catalog-common'
Root Project Abc/build.gradle
plugins {
id 'org.springframework.boot' version '2.7.3' apply false
id 'io.spring.dependency-management' version '1.0.13.RELEASE'
id 'java'
}
subprojects {
group = 'com.abc'
apply plugin: 'java'
apply plugin: 'io.spring.dependency-management'
sourceCompatibility = 1.8
targetCompatibility = 1.8
configurations {
compileOnly {
extendsFrom annotationProcessor
}
}
dependencyManagement {
imports {
mavenBom org.springframework.boot.gradle.plugin.SpringBootPlugin.BOM_COORDINATES
mavenBom "org.springframework.cloud:spring-cloud-dependencies:2021.0.3"
}
}
tasks.withType(JavaCompile) {
options.encoding = 'UTF-8'
}
repositories {
mavenLocal()
mavenCentral()
}
dependencies {
compileOnly 'org.projectlombok:lombok'
annotationProcessor 'org.projectlombok:lombok'
}
}
Module catalog-common
dependencies {
implementation 'org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter'
implementation 'org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-actuator'
implementation 'org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-web'
implementation('org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-validation')
implementation 'org.springframework.cloud:spring-cloud-starter-openfeign'
testImplementation 'org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-test'
}
Module Catalog
plugins {
id 'org.springframework.boot' version '2.7.3'
}
dependencies {
implementation project(':catalog-common')
}
in Catalog Project it is expecting again to define spring dependencies but where as I am able to access java static classes
Please help
CodePudding user response:
It looks like your catalog-common
is a kind of "library" module, consumed by other sub-projects (catalog
and maybe others). If so, you should use the Java Library plugin which can be used for this purpose. You will then need to configure all dependencies you want to "inherit" in consumer projects using api
configuration instead of implementation
. Dependencies declared in implementation
will not leak into consumer projects, this is the expected Gradle behavior.
In you example, catalog-common
build script should look like:
plugins {
id("java-library")
}
dependencies {
// choose between api or implementation, depending on the scope you want for each dependency
api 'org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter'
api 'org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-actuator'
api 'org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-web'
implementation('org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-validation')
implementation 'org.springframework.cloud:spring-cloud-starter-openfeign'
implementation 'org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-test'
}
Please note that it seems a bit strange to configure some of the Spring dependencies like actuator
in this common library: this should declared only in the main "application" project ( catalog
in your case), unless you want to implement some common code depending on actuator
in the catalog-common
module.
