Is it mandatory to define the java plugin to download the depdendency in gradle script?

I am writing the gradle script where I need to download the multiple jar files from artifactory I am using the apply plugin 'java' in gradle script and able to fetch those jar files from artifactory easily but if I apply this plugin it run the jar task automatically and creates the jar which I don't want.Is there a way to download the jar files from artifactory with/without using the java plugin so that jar task couldn't trigger.

apply plugin 'java'
apply plugin: 'base'

//-- set the group for publishing
group = 'com.abcdef.covery'

/**
 * Initializing GAVC settings
 */
def buildProperties = new Properties()
file("version.properties").withInputStream { 
    stream -> buildProperties.load(stream) 
} 
//add the jenkins build version to the version
def env = System.getenv()
if (env["BUILD_NUMBER"]) buildProperties.coveryadBuildVersion += "_${env["BUILD_NUMBER"]}"
version = buildProperties.scoveryadBuildVersion
println "${version}"

//name is set in the settings.gradle file
group = "com.abcdef.discovery"
version = buildProperties.coveryadBuildVersion
println "Building ${project.group}:${project.name}"


  repositories {
    maven {
      url "http://art.tsh.tho.com:90000/artifactory/services"
    }
  }

dependencies {
    runtime "covery.services:AddService:1.0@jar"    
    runtime "covery.services:AddService:1.1@jar"
   runtime "covery.services:Services:1.0@jar"
    runtime "covery.services:Services:1.1@jar"
}

task copyDeps(type: Copy) {
from configurations.runtime
into 'services/discovery/services/'
}

output:Below shows few tasks which are running while using the java plugin in the script and if I don't use then it doesn't download the jar files from artifactory.

You do not need to add the java plugin to download dependencies. If you do not have any java source files I would recommend that you use the baseplugin instead:

apply plugin: 'base'

repositories {
    mavenCentral()
}

configurations {
    nameOfMyConfiguration
}

dependencies {
    nameOfMyConfiguration 'org.scala-lang:scala-library:2.10.4'
}

task zipMyStuff(type: Zip) {
    from configurations.nameOfMyConfiguration
}
