How do I gradle run without any dependency checking?

We have a complex set of build.gradle scripts.

Is it possible to run a task without dependency checking of any kind?

e.g.

gradle run

should just start the jvm and nothing else?

Thank you.

If running on bash, you can skip all dependencies like this

./gradlew test $(./gradlew test --dry-run | awk '/^:/ { print "-x" $1 }' | sed '$ d')

What this does is simply

  • to do a dry-run of the build, to detect all dependencies and
  • build a command line with all required -x flags.

Notice:

  • you can use the Gradle --console plain flag if you want to see the initial output without the pretty-print features of Gradle
  • the sed allows to skip the last line... awk being quite complex to do the same...

If you want to exclude module dependencies, there is a -a, or --no-rebuild option to skip other subprojects/modules.

If you want to skip the compilation, or resources tasks, you can use the -x option.
