build.gradle - How to download javadocs and sources for jar using Gradle 2.0?

Question

I am using Gradle 2.0. What should I write in build.gradle so that the javadocs and sources are also downloaded along with the jars?

Answer 1

I guess your question is related to a dev workspace, here are links explaining how to add the required configuration in Gradle using the IDEs' plugins:

For Eclipse:

apply plugin: 'java'
apply plugin: 'eclipse'

eclipse {
    classpath {
        downloadJavadoc = true
        downloadSources = true
    }
}

For IntelliJ & Android Studio

apply plugin: 'java'
apply plugin: 'idea'

idea {
    module {
        downloadJavadoc = true
        downloadSources = true
    }
}

To run these plugins:

gradle cleanEclipse eclipse
gradle cleanIdea idea
