There are articles that can be found on google that can help. Example - http://www.jayway.com/2013/05/12/getting-started-with-gradle/

Assuming this is a project. The simplest thing to get started is - create build.gradle in the same directory as pom.xml.

apply plugin: 'java'   #Java project - standard maven directory structure expected

repositories {
   mavenCentral() #Download dependencies from maven central
}

dependencies {
   compile = "org.apache.ant:ant:1.8.1"   #As an example - ant dependency
}

And that is it as a simple starting point - Dependencies have been declared and the project is a one. To run jUnit tests - gradle test, to jar gradle jar.

If you want to invoke a main() function

apply plugin: 'application'
mainClassName=com.coyote.Foo

To invoke gradle run

All the information on is available on http://www.gradle.org/docs/current/userguide/userguide.html
