Since we have been migrating to using vendoring instead of shading[1] and due to previous efforts in vendoring[2, 3] I have opened up PR 8762[4] which migrates all projects that weren't doing anything shading wise to not perform any shading. This required me to fix up all intra project dependencies and release publishing.
The following is a list of all project paths which are still using shading for some reason: model/* sdks/java/core sdks/java/extensions/kryo sdks/java/extensions/sql sdks/java/extensions/sql/jdbc sdks/java/harness runners/spark/job-server runners/direct-java runners/samza/job-server runners/google-cloud-dataflow-java/worker runners/google-cloud-dataflow-java/worker/legacy-worker runners/google-cloud-dataflow-java/worker/windmill vendor/* Out of the list above, migrating sdks/java/core and runners/direct-java (in that order) would provide the most benefit to moving away from shading within our project. Many of the others are either shaded proto classes or applications (e.g. job-servers, harness, sql jdbc) and either require shading to be compatible with vendoring or aren't meant to be used as dependencies. Since this is a larger change that cuts across so many projects there is risk for breakage. I'm looking for people to help test the change and validate any scenarios that they are specifically interested in. I'm planning to run several of the postcommits on my PR and check that we can build a release in addition to any efforts others provide before looking to have the change merged. The following guidance should help those who edit Gradle build files (after this change is merged): * For projects that don't perform any shading, those projects have been migrated to use the default configurations that the Gradle Java plugin uses[5]. Note that the default configurations we use have been deprecated. * For projects that depend on another project that isn't shaded, the intra project configuration has been swapped to use compile / testRuntime instead of shadow and shadowTest * Existing projects that are still shaded should use the shadow and shadowTest configurations as before. 1: https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/4c12db35b40a6d56e170cd6fc8bb0ac4c43a99aa3cb7dbae54176815@%3Cdev.beam.apache.org%3E 2: https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/4c12db35b40a6d56e170cd6fc8bb0ac4c43a99aa3cb7dbae54176815@%3Cdev.beam.apache.org%3E 3: https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/972b5175641f4eaf7ec92870cc0ff72fa52e6f0bbaccc384a3814e45@%3Cdev.beam.apache.org%3E 4: https://github.com/apache/beam/pull/8762 5: https://docs.gradle.org/current/userguide/java_plugin.html#sec:java_plugin_and_dependency_management
