---------------------------------------
Github user NicoK commented on the issue:
https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/5900
I'm pretty sure I got all this covered by using a separate "configuration":
`myShadowJar` - not the standard dependency configuration*, but does the trick:
Everything added to `myShadowJar` inside the `dependencies` gets added to
the shaded jar (here: shadowJar), except for the explicit excludes which work
with transitive dependencies as well (defined in the lines starting with
`myShadowJar.exclude group:` where I included the same things as in the maven
shade configuration of the quickstart). All user-code dependencies should be
put into `myShadowJar` - maybe I should make this even more explicit in the
gradle build file.
- nothing is relocated - there's stuff packed into the jar and other stuff
that isn't, that's it :) (should be the same - I did compare the jar with the
one from maven with and without the kafka connector dependency as a test)
- Flink core dependencies are excluded from the uber jar by not putting
them into `myShadowJar`
- with the trick of using `myShadowJar`, not only is IntelliJ able to run
the job and the tests, it also runs from commandline
* Unfortunately, I could not use the `shadow`/`compileOnly` dependency
configurations which are standard for this in gradle because then the program
would not run in IntelliJ or via `gradle run`. It would expect the environment
to provide the dependencies which it does not there. Alternatives/fixes for
this broke the transitive dependency exclusion which is, however, scheduled for
some future version of the gradle shadow plugin. There a lot of enhancement
requests in this regard, e.g. https://github.com/johnrengelman/shadow/issues/159

> Key: FLINK-9222
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-9222
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Project Website, Quickstarts
> Reporter: Nico Kruber
> Assignee: Nico Kruber
> Priority: Critical
>
> Having a proper project template helps a lot in getting dependencies right.
> For example, setting the core dependencies to "provided", the connector /
> library dependencies to "compile", etc.
> The Maven quickstarts are in good shape by now, but there is none for Gradle
> and Gradle users to get this wrong quite often.
