Make a Gradle project work without an internet connection

Question

Given a Gradle project, that has:

Runtime/Compile-time dependencies.
Source/Javadoc Jars of dependencies.
Gradle plugins.

All of which are retrieved from the internet.

How can I download all of these online dependencies to a local folder, and then use them locally in a Gradle project?

The goal is to end up with a project that doesn't rely on an internet connection at all.

You can do a one-time download of your required dependencies to a local folder, and add a local "maven repo", besides the dependencies, it should also work for sources.

repositories {
   maven {
       url 'file://C:/LocalRepo'
   }
}

How do you download all these dependencies? Also, what you showed doesn't work for plugins. – Fudge Fudge Feb 12 '22 at 14:21
When you run build with Gradle, it downloads the dependencies to a local folder and uses it from there. As of plugins, I don't know of a solution, will edit it out. – Kfir Doron Feb 13 '22 at 15:06
Usually, this is being called `mavenLocal()` - or `flatDir` for AAR. – Martin Zeitler Feb 13 '22 at 15:32
