How to declare multiple dependency with the same group

Help/Discuss

Hi, guys ,can gradle declare dependenices which has the same group like below style

compile (‘org.groupname’:[‘nameone’,‘nametow’,‘namethree’,…],‘versionnum’)

or difference version like this：

compile(‘org.groupname’,[‘nameone:version1’,‘nametwo:version2’,…])

instead of duplicate declare group or version numbers

Using a bit of Groovy should do it:

dependencies {
  def fooBundle = [group: com.acme.foo, version: '1.2.3']
  compile(['core', 'spi', 'impl'].collect { [module: it] << fooBundle })
}

Alternatively, you may define the fooBundle in a central location, or decide to use Maven-style BOM’s.

If you simply want to define your groups and versions in a single place you can do

ext {
   groups = [foo: 'org.groupname']
   versions = [foo: '1.2.3']
}
dependencies {
    compile "${groups.foo}:nameone:${versions.foo}"
    compile "${groups.foo}:nametwo:${versions.foo}"
    compile "${groups.foo}:namethree:${versions.foo}"
}

As @ddimitrov mentioned, Gradle 4.6 added BOM import support which would also solve the problem
