warlordofmars-gradle

Overview

Custom Gradle distribution for warlordofmars projects to apply some sane defaults in order to avoid duplication.

Features

Default Group

This gradle distribution will set the default group for all projects that use it. This is so that the group does not have to always be defined in every project's build.gradle:

group = 'com.github.warlordofmars'

Default Repositories

Similiarly, to keep from having to define multiple maven repositories in each project, a number of default repositories (as well as buildscript repositories):

buildscript {
    repositories {
        mavenLocal()
        mavenCentral()
        jcenter()
        maven {
            url "https://jitpack.io"
        }
        maven {
            url "https://plugins.gradle.org/m2/"
        }
    }
}

repositories {
    mavenLocal()
    mavenCentral()
    jcenter()
    maven {
        url "https://jitpack.io"
    }
    maven {
        url "https://plugins.gradle.org/m2/"
}
