Two Method

  • using homebrew auto install:
    • Steps:
      • brew install gradle
    • Pros and cons
      • Pros: easy
      • Cons: (probably) not latest version
  • manually install (for latest version):
    • Pros and cons
      • Pros: use your expected any (or latest) version
      • Cons: need self to do it
    • Steps
      • download latest version binary (gradle-6.0.1) from Gradle | Releases
      • unzip it (gradle-6.0.1-all.zip) and added gradle path into environment variable PATH
        • normally is edit and add following config into your startup script( ~/.bashrc or ~/.zshrc etc.):
export GRADLE_HOME=/path_to_your_gradle/gradle-6.0.1
export PATH=$GRADLE_HOME/bin:$PATH

some other basic note

Q: How to make PATH take effect immediately?

A: use source:

source ~/.bashrc

it will make/execute your .bashrc, so make PATH become your expected latest values, which include your added gradle path.

Q: How to check PATH is really take effect/working now?

A: use echo to see your added path in indeed in your PATH

?  ~ echo $PATH
xxx:/Users/crifan/dev/dev_tool/java/gradle/gradle-6.0.1/bin:xxx

you can see we added /Users/crifan/dev/dev_tool/java/gradle/gradle-6.0.1/bin into your PATH

Q: How to verify gradle is installed correctly on my Mac ?

A: use which to make sure can find gradle

?  ~ which gradle
/Users/crifan/dev/dev_tool/java/gradle/gradle-6.0.1/bin/gradle

AND to check and see gradle version

?  ~ gradle --version
