Many of my jars have conflicting transitive dependencies (multiple spring versions). I would like to avoid inherited version conflicts by managing all of my dependencies explicitly, is it possible to disable all transitive dependencies in Gradle?
I know I can add transitive = false
to each of my dependencies, but I am hoping there is a simpler way.
compile(group: 'org.springframework', name: 'spring', version: '2.5.2') {
transitive = false
}
I ended up using:
configurations.all {
transitive = false
}
If you want to have just one configuration block for all configurations you can use spread-dot operator to express this.
configurations {
// other configurations e.g. - compile.exclude module: 'commons-logging'
all*.transitive = false
}
In my case, I had a project (gradle module) depedency. I used the following to exclude the transitive dependencies in Gradle 3:
implementation(project(':<module_name>')) {
transitive = false
}
