Grade build, even from inside IntelliJ IDEA does not put the dependencies into the "External Libraries" folder, so these classes don't show up as suggestions in the editor and when I manually add them as an import there is a compile error.
How can I get IntelliJ to automatically incorporate the dependencies in my build.gradle file, for instance:
compile 'com.google.code.gson:gson:1.7.2
This question is related to
java
intellij-idea
gradle
build.gradle
The answer is
In my case,I was getting error while refreshing gradle ('View'->Tool Windows->Gradle) tab and hit "refresh" and getting this error no such property gradleversion for class jetgradleplugin.
Had to install latest intellij compatible with gradle 5+
For those who are getting the "Unable to resolve dependencies" error:
Toggle "Offline Mode" off
('View'->Tool Windows->Gradle)
Tried everything in this thread and nothing worked for me in IntelliJ 2020.2. This answer did the trick, but I had to set the correct path to the JDK and choose it in Gradle settings after that (as showed in figures bellow):
- Setting the correct path for the Java SDK (under File->Project Structure):
- In Gradle Window, click in "Gradle Settings..."
- Select the correct SDK from (1) here:
After that, the option "Reload All Gradle Projects" downloaded all dependencies as expected.
Cheers.
When importing an existing Gradle project (one with a build.gradle) into IntelliJ IDEA, when presented with the following screen, select Import from external model -> Gradle.
Optionally, select Auto Import on the next screen to automatically import new dependencies.
After adding dependencies open "Gradle" ('View'->Tool Windows->Gradle) tab and hit "refresh"
example of adding (compile 'io.reactivex:rxjava:1.1.0'):
If Idea still can not resolve dependency, hence it is possibly the dependency is not in mavenCentral() repository and you need add repository where this dependency located into repositories{}
Andrey's above post is still valid for the latest version of Intellij as of 3rd Quarter of 2017. So use it. 'Cause, build project, and external command line gradle build, does NOT add it to the external dependencies in Intellij...crazy as that sounds it is true. Only difference now is that the UI looks different to the above, but still the same icon for updating is used. I am only putting an answer here, cause I cannot paste a snapshot of the new UI...I dont want any up votes per se. Andrey still gave the correct answer above:
