How to add classpath dependencies in build.gradle project?

After the Gradle update, every new project has this type of format in build.gradle (project:"...")

// Top-level build file where you can add configuration options common to all sub-projects/modules.
plugins {
    id 'com.android.application' version '7.1.0' apply false
    id 'com.android.library' version '7.1.0' apply false
}

task clean(type: Delete) {
    delete rootProject.buildDir
}

Now how can I add classpath dependencies here?

If you are adding firebase to your Android App it needs to look something like below.


buildscript {
    repositories {
        // Check that you have the following line (if not, add it):
        google()  // Google's Maven repository

    }
    dependencies {

        // Add this line
        classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:4.3.10'

    }
}



plugins {
    id 'com.android.application' version '7.1.2' apply false
    id 'com.android.library' version '7.1.2' apply false
}


task clean(type: Delete) {
    delete rootProject.buildDir
}

Just add a dependencies section/method as shown in the gradle docs:

dependencies{
    implementation 'group.id:artifact-id:version' 
}

If a dependency should be available both at compile- and runtime, declare it as implementation (not available for dependents) or api (also available for dependents). See this for more details on the difference between api and implementation.

If it should be available at compile-time only, use compileOnly.

Similarly, you can use runtimeOnly for dependencies that should only be used at runtime.

If a dependency should be available only during tests, add test before it, e.g. testImplementation.

The docs on the Java Library Plugin provide more details on that.
