This moves our depedencies into a plain file that can be read and
updated by tooling. While the current tooling is not particularly better
than just using gradle-versions-plugin, it should put us on better
footing. gradle-versions-plugin is actually pretty nice, but will be
incompatible with Gradle 8, so we need to wait a bit to see what the
future holds.
Left libraries as an alias for libs to reduce the commit size and make
it easier to revert if we don't end up liking this approach.
We're using Gradle 7.3.3 where it was an incubating fetaure. But in
Gradle 7.4 is became stable.
failOnVersionConflict has never been good for us. It is equivalent to
Maven dependencyConvergence which we discourage our users to use because
it is too tempermental and _creates_ version skew issues over time.
However, we had no real alternative for determining if our deps would be
misinterpeted by Maven.
failOnVersionConflict has been a constant drain and makes it really hard
to do seemingly-trivial upgrades. As evidenced by protobuf/build.gradle
in this change, it also caused _us_ to introduce a version downgrade.
This introduces our own custom requireUpperBoundDeps implementation so
that we can get back to simple dependency upgrades _and_ increase our
confidence in a consistent dependency tree.
Bumps target SDK version of grpc-android, grpc-cronet, grpc-android-interop-testing to API 29. Major related changes are:
- Migrated android.support to androidx, which is required for Android Q.
- android.net.NetworkInfo is deprecated in SDK 29, suppressed compiler warnings as it is needed for supporting old Android versions.
- Robolectric requires Java 9+ for Android 29, which causes unit tests in grpc-cronet fail. Added annotation to emulate Android 28 for grpc-cronet's test.
- Upgraded Android dependencies accordingly in android-interop-testing.
- Use gradle configuration `api` for dependencies that are part of grpc public api signatures.
- Replace deprecated gradle configurations `compile`, `testCompile`, `runtime` and `testRuntime`.
- With minimal change in dependencies: If we need dep X and Y to compile our code, and if X transitively depends on Y, then our build would still pass even if we only include X as `compile`/`implementation` dependency for our project. Ideally we should include both X and Y explicitly as `implementation` dependency for our project, but in this PR we don't add the missing Y if it is previously missing.
* Added publish configurations in build file.
* Changed cronet dependency to cronet-api for implementation, only use full cronet implementation provider for testing.
* Set minSdkVersion to 16 as cronet dependency requires that.
* Added errorprone plugin.
This PR adds an automatic gradle format checker and reformats all the *.gradle files. After this, new changes to *.gradle files will fail to build if not in good format, just like checkStyle failure.
