View Gradle dependency tree in Eclipse

Question

Is it possible to visualize the dependency tree from inside of Eclipse (e.g. the output of gradle dependencies)? Expanding the Gradle Dependencies tree in Eclipse is a flat view and does not show dependencies for other projects (e.g. if I have a dependency compile project(':project2'), none of project2's dependencies are shown).

Based on this it looks like a tree view is not supported?

Basically I'm looking for the equivalent of this in the maven plugin:

Answer 1

At the time of writing, neither Spring Eclipse Integration Gradle nor Buildship provide a Dependency Hierarchy view we know from m2e.

I don't know when this has been implemented but you can do a gradle dependencies either on command-line or via Buildship Gradle Tasks view within Eclipse. This prints a nice dependency tree of your project's dependencies to the console.

Answer 2

Use gradle 'project-report' plugin to generate report in HTML format.

https://docs.gradle.org/current/userguide/project_report_plugin.html

Add plugin in your build.gradle file:

apply plugin: 'project-report'

And generate report using:

> gradle htmlDependencyReport

Answer 3

For me, it was simply one command

in build.gradle add plugin

apply plugin: 'project-report'

and then go to cmd and run following command

./gradlew htmlDependencyReport

This give me a HTML report WOW Html report

Or if you want the report in a txt file, to make search easy use following command

gradlew dependencyReport

That's all my lord.
