Gradle-获取依赖关系的最新发布版本

告诉 Gradle以下事情最简单的方法是什么:

检索“ junit”依赖关系并获取其最新的“ release”版本。

管理 Maven 和 Ivy 存储库对我来说有点新鲜。我尝试了以下步骤,结果是 Could not resolve dependency ...错误:

  • 编写只将存储库设置为 mavenCentral()(但是,如果我说“ junit: junit: 4.10”,它就可以工作)。compile "junit:junit:latest.release"

  • 使用以下方式设置存储库编写 compile "junit:junit:latest.release":

    ivy {
    // I also tried 'http://maven.org' and other possible variants.
    url "http://repo1.maven.org"
    layout "maven"
    }
    
  • Attempted to use Spring Source Ivy repository:

    ivy {
    artifactPattern "http://repository.springsource.com/ivy/libraries/release/[organisation]/[module]/[revision]/[artifact]-[revision].[ext]"
    ivyPattern "http://repository.springsource.com/ivy/libraries/release/[organisation]/[module]/[revision]/[artifact]-[revision].[ext]"
    }
    

Maybe I misunderstand something. Why would getting the latest version of the dependency be such a hard task?

Gradle currently does not support Maven's RELEASE (which is rarely used and deprecated) but it does support Ivy's latest.release (and for snapshots latest.integration). However, the general recommendation is to build against exact versions. Otherwise, the build can become a lottery.

It can be quite useful sometimes to get the latest release - if for example you release often your own dependencies.

You can get the latest version like

compile "junit:junit:+"

or better specify at least the major version like

compile "junit:junit:4.+"

Check out the Gradle-Versions-Plugin. It does exactly what you want: https://github.com/ben-manes/gradle-versions-plugin

For the installation, see the github page. Basically you need to add these two lines to your build.gradle - project file:

apply plugin: 'com.github.ben-manes.versions'


buildscript {
[...]
dependencies {
classpath 'com.github.ben-manes:gradle-versions-plugin:0.8'
[...]
}
}
[...]

Then you can use the plugin, by running this command in terminal in your project dir:

./gradlew dependencyUpdates -Drevision=release

And it will show you which dependencies are outdated!

Latest Gradle User Guide mentions and explains plus sign in versions:

From 7.2. Declaring your dependencies:

dependencies {
compile group: 'org.hibernate', name: 'hibernate-core', version: '3.6.7.Final'
testCompile group: 'junit', name: 'junit', version: '4.+'
}

... The build script also states that any junit >= 4.0 is required to compile the project's tests.

From 23.7. How dependency resolution works:

If the dependency is declared as a dynamic version (like 1.+), Gradle will resolve this to the newest available static version (like 1.2) in the repository. For Maven repositories, this is done using the maven-metadata.xml file, while for Ivy repositories this is done by directory listing.

In Android Studio:

If you're using + for the version, and want to know which version is actually being used, select Project in the sidebar, and then under External Libraries you will see the actual version number in use.

Another similar notation for Kotlin DSL (build.gradle.kts):

dependencies {
implementation("or.jsoup", "jsoup") {
version {
require("1.14.+")
}
}
// OR simply
// implementation("or.jsoup:jsoup:1.14.+")
}

Read more about this in Gradle documentations.

An excerpt from the docs:

A dynamic version can be either a version range (e.g. 2.+) or it can be a placeholder for the latest version available e.g. latest.integration.
