I am feeling rather dense. I am trying to place an arbitrary file - my
database vendor's JDBC driver jar - into an Ivy repository for use by
Gradle. (I am trying to replace an old Ant build without dependency
management with a Gradle build using Ivy.)
For the files I have that I can find in a public repository I am able to
get them into Gradle, and therefore into Ivy. I am doing this with the
following task after a successful build, which works whether it is good
practice or not - comments welcome.
task repoSetup(type: Copy) {
description = "Copy compile dependencies into Ivy repository"
from "${gradle.gradleUserHomeDir}/cache"
into "C:/ivy/repo"
}
I have the JDBC jar file supplied by my database vendor but I cannot find
it in a public repository out there. So how do I get it into the Ivy
repository, ideally with the organisation that I want? Is there some
documentation that I have overlooked on doing this sort of thing?
Thanks for any guidance.
