Java Gradle Skill
Master Gradle build tool with Kotlin DSL for Java projects.
Overview
This skill covers Gradle configuration with Kotlin DSL including task configuration, dependency management with catalogs, build cache optimization, and CI/CD integration.
When to Use This Skill
Use when you need to:
- Configure Gradle builds (Kotlin DSL)
- Manage dependencies with catalogs
- Optimize build performance
- Set up build cache
- Create custom tasks
Quick Reference
// build.gradle.kts
plugins {
java
id("org.springframework.boot") version "3.2.1"
id("io.spring.dependency-management") version "1.1.4"
}
java {
toolchain {
languageVersion = JavaLanguageVersion.of(21)
}
}
repositories {
mavenCentral()
}
dependencies {
implementation("org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-web")
testImplementation("org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-test")
}
tasks.withType<JavaCompile> {
options.compilerArgs.addAll(listOf("-parameters", "-Xlint:all"))
options.isFork = true
options.isIncremental = true
}
tasks.test {
useJUnitPlatform()
maxParallelForks = Runtime.getRuntime().availableProcessors() / 2
}
Version Catalog
# gradle/libs.versions.toml
[versions]
spring-boot = "3.2.1"
[libraries]
spring-boot-web = { module = "org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-web", version.ref = "spring-boot" }
[plugins]
spring-boot = { id = "org.springframework.boot", version.ref = "spring-boot" }
Useful Commands
gradle dependencies # View dependencies
gradle dependencyInsight --dependency log4j # Analyze dep
gradle build --scan # Build scan
gradle build --build-cache # Use cache
gradle wrapper --gradle-version 8.5 # Update wrapper
Build Optimization
// settings.gradle.kts
enableFeaturePreview("STABLE_CONFIGURATION_CACHE")
// Enable parallel and caching
org.gradle.parallel=true
org.gradle.caching=true
Troubleshooting
| Problem | Solution |
|---|---|
| Slow builds | Enable --build-cache |
| Version conflict | Use platform() or constraints |
| Cache issues | gradle --refresh-dependencies |
