Open Source Mac Version Control Software

This plugin allows to specify versions of external libraries in a centralized place and use them across the project. It's specifically useful for Gradle multi-projects. This plugin also uses com.github.ben-manes.versions plugin to automatically update libraries once new releases are available. Run ./gradlew syncLibraries to create $rootDir/dependencies.json file with all currently known dependencies. Once dependencies.json file is in place by generating via syncLibraries task or just by manually creating it, all declared in dependencies.json libraries can be used in project files. It's not a secret that it's really hard to keep libraries up to date especially when there are dozens and sometimes hundreds of them. For that purpose, this plugin has update libraries task that will automatically check for available new versions of libraries.
